Thank you
Not all heroes wear capes
Thanks for letting us know. I was wondering if I was ever going to get the info I needed.
Thank God I reacted very very well to my first 200mg injection. I honestly can say I feel rebirthed and renewed. It’s unbelievable!!!! Got relief of symptoms and fatigue within 48 hours. I seriously am in disbelief. 46 6’3” 340lb depression weight problems diabetes etc etc. Testosterone Total T 271, Free T 3.6. Yup, I was growing a pet vagina on my leg.
LOL
😂
Me too at 41 total t was 275 I had energy after first 48
@@alix4802 I'm 48. Mine was only 190. Horribly low. Now I'm 3 weeks into trt and my prick actually works again lmao. My woman loves it for sure.
You wouldn't of noticed a difference within 48 hours. it takes about 5-6 weeks to start feeling better. I think you were feeling a placebo effect.
Great vid by the way
Cool stuff man
Great video as usual guys!!! But the grief you give old Mike, Sam is harsh ha ha 💪💪💪
Peace.
Shout about it is an appropriate way of wording it, when the testicular cancer came back to me this year I felt very angry and it's made me hate cancer with a passion for attacking my precious masculinity but thank goodness we're in the 21st century where science has advanced to the maximum to help balance hormones when it comes to hormonal imbalances as a way to help us maintain our manliness if it gets so severely attacked by a deadly disease
starting today, good intel here. thanks for the real-talk.
Any time!
How's it going?
@@TDR85 a lot of my symptoms have been resolved, and the wife is happy 😅
Might have to come off in the near future, potentially going to try to have kids. Something to consider before you begin therapy.
@@Pludplug did you have symptoms from low t? Or from trt? I got the labs and the test.. anxious to start.
@@TDR85 yes I had low T. Symptoms, low energy. Couldn't lose weight regardless of my diet or exercise, low sex drive. I commented on another one of your posts. Hope my experience helps.
Great one
MAYASONDO thanks for the comment. Keep watching we’ll have more soon
Good one
I started TRT about two weeks ago. I had testicular cancer back in 2015 and had an orchiectomy. Since I only had one of my boys, eventually it could not keep up with testosterone production and I started feeling low T symptoms: weight gain, massive drop in energy, no libido and depression. It's amazing to me that my doctor at the time of my surgery never told me that I would eventually suffer from low T. I'm hoping to start feeling better soon and have enjoyed watching your videos so far. Thanks for the advise. Great job guys!
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching. Give it time for your symptoms to improve.
Hey man. How u feeling nowadays?
In my fourth week not really feeling much of a difference. Little worried about that but trying to trust and move forward and be positive.
Stay Positive and give it time. It's a journey. Also in another 2 weeks you can have a blood test to see where things are biochemically.
Any update?
You should do blood work on the 5th week to check your numbers --- you may need more or need to inject more often ...
It dos take some time, and also time to make sure the dosage is "dailed in" specifically for you. I think I am just getting the dosage right after 2 years.
Dude, most of these people are having a placebo effect.
I'm in my first week. Can't wait for it to kick in.
broodjebakpao1994 it’s a journey. Hope you find the videos helpful.
How is it going?
When did it kick in
What are you expecting to "kick in"?
Hi, so how did it go, please?
I may need to take TRT cos I've just had testicular cancer twice both this year and last year so I may need to take out the remaining testi from my surgery if the tumour can't be zapped away from it cos a man can't produce natural testosterone without testis so if that happens to me I'm gonna pick jags that provide artificial testosterone in replacement of the absence of natural testosterone if the worst comes to the worst
After two weeks I have noticed big mood improvement and better recovery from weightlifting. My Testosterone was 287 at age 56, 6'1" 190lbs
Tell me more.
My testosterone was 207 at 42 years old. Now I'm at 1138. I feel you're excited and having a placebo effect.
Chit I got you all beat lol. 137 (42 years old). I started trt 3 days ago
im 42 years old and I have been suffering from extreme depression for YEARS but the past 2 years has been horrible, i started seeing a Dr she gave me a full panel blood test found my thyroid was low, been on a million different anti depressants that have not helped, a few wks ago I asked if I had ever had my Testosterone tested she looked and said no, i asked to have it done she said it prolly wasn't the case cause i'm so young.. I said I wanted it done.. it came back as a 40, and my free testosterone was 2.6 we had a 2nd test done and it came back as 47 I have an appointment with a Urologist next week and I can't wait.. I hope they put me on the shots IMMEDIATELY it explains so many things with me... I have ZERO ENERGY I can sleep 10 hours and wake up feeling like i had no sleep.. at work i feel like i'm going to collapse, have damn near lost my job because of it
Omg i hope you get better.
Nhs??
How are you doing now? You start it? I've been on it exactly 2 weeks today. Haven't noticed much yet. Hoping I start feeling a difference in the next week or two
@@baddgoat85 amazing. I feel 15 years younger at least. Have lost 30 lbs. Urologist started me on 200 mgs one injection every 2 wks, around wk 5 it all changed, overnight, I woke up and felt totally different. I now switched to trt nation online and do self injections, 100 mgs every 3.5 days. I really hope you feel better soon. Im blown away and tell everyone I know my age and up about it. House it makes you feel so much younger and the depression is gone, no anxiety or constant negative thoughts
@@GhostWritersParanormalPortal That's great to hear brother. When I had mine tested initially, it was 88 and another time was 127. Very low for 38 yr old, let alone any man. I just started 200 mg of cypionate exactly 2 weeks ago today. I'm doing 50 mg every other day, which averages to 150-200 per week roughly. More like 175 I guess. I'm really hoping it kicks in soon. I'm in the same boat you were. Depression, anxiety, no drive, no motivation, no focus, and tired 24/7. It's debilitating at the least.
I'm on 2nd week and getting Testosterone and HCG weekly. I am having more energy and seem to sleep better. Also have noticed other things improving.
Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
How many mg per week did you start with ?
I am about to get my 4th injection so start my 4th week but my blood pressure since starting has gone up from 104/65 to 130/75 ....is this something that should concern me?
I'm at 2 weeks. Dont feel much yet. Waking up early but energy still low. 200 ml testosterone cyphionate 15 units 4 times a week. I'm only on injection 10 so maybe in another 2 weeks.
You mean 200 ml in total per week right? Thats a very high dose unless you are very large.
update?
Fyi: it takes 6 to 8 weeks to feel anything. The placebo effect is strong with some of you.
Appreciate the input. It's indeed crucial to be patient and realistic about the timeline for experiencing effects. Everyone's journey is unique. Thanks for highlighting this.
Oh look, one of those “it’s a placebo” guys…. Somebody get him a vest and a whistle
Nah man
Having a thumbnail like the one for this video shows me you definity need TRT

Is it ever 'too late' to start TRT? I'm 41 and I feel like I'm nowhere near ready yet. I quit drinking 6 months ago and feel great. I'm still optimising all the natural ways to increase test before I sign up to jabs for the rest of my life. Can deffo see myself doing it in my 50s if it helps me do BJJ and mountain biking for longer.
It's never too late to start TRT! Age is just a number, and taking care of your health is always a good idea. Keep doing what you're doing and explore all your options to find what works best for you.
I hope it helps my husband. First injection today. Great video guys
@@JW-gn9lz just fine thank you
Hope things are going well for him
Hi, so did it help him, please?
@@matesssmiss9419 he's still receiving T replacement therapy. No it hasn't. His numbers are over 900. Goal is to get him even higher to 1500. He began at 124. Sexless marriage is hard. I can only hope increasing dose does the trick.
@@janetlizarraga9376 Thanks for reply. I wish him to get better soon.
Just looking for some insight if I should even consider TRT. I'm 23/M, 5ft6. My T level is 14.20 nnmol/L and Free T is 0.305 nnmol/L. I feel like I'm in a constant can't be arsed mood to do anything
Yeah you are a little low but that may be your lifestyle. I would not start TRT at your age, I would say about 35 minimum unless you have significant issues.
I guess I am an outlier. at two weeks I have improve energy,mood, strength. Feel like I’m in my 20s.

Anyone taking or have taken Tlando Testosterone Undecanoate 112.5 mg oral capsules ? I just started taking this about 10 days ago and would interested to hear how it’s working/worked out for you.
I started TRT 4 weeks ago, 100mg Test Cypo/wk, 3 pins MWF. I feel like crap. What really concerns me is after trimming some hedges for 30 mins or so... my left arm (the one holding the trimmer up) got REALLY weak, still weak day after... is this normal?
Am I doing something wrong? My Free T has been around 5.2ng/dl for years... low libido/motivation and worried about cardiac and cancer risk for low T.
Any advice? Am I starting too high?
Update... feeling MUCH better... guess it just took time to acclimate... after 5 weeks, Free T is up to 11.5... I hope it keeps improving...
100 mg a week really isn't that high and you're too early in to have any effect from it. I'm going to say you're just experiencing some anxiety. I've been watching a lot of these trt videos and most of these guys don't look like they need it. I'll go as far as to say the one guy in this video looks like an experienced steroid. user
@@rcf3773 Yes... turns out that closing out my 5th week, I am starting to feel much better... not sure if it is only the TRT, as I stopped puffing a small amount of grass daily, stopped the small glass of red wine for lunch too... and am eating pretty much only fresh veggies and Ezekiel bread toast and some fruit.
Not missing the grass so much, but missing the wine!
I will be asking to go to 150mg today at the UroDoc appt.
@@GeorgeKnew how are things now? what about the hand weakness you mentioned
@@GokuPlaysUK Hi, much better, thanks! I'm not sure exactly what caused me to feel so bad, maybe a combo... but I took a .125 of anastrozole and felt better quickly, so maybe my e2 was too high... my new labs... Free t is up from 5.2 to 11.0... estradiol down to 17... maybe effects from the AI... the shakiness might have been from low blood sugar... I was skipping dinner often... not doing that any more...
@Phry3 tura Thanks... but my e2 has been pretty stable... actually went down a little, from 39 to 30 on TRT...
But yes, I think the weed and wine combined to give me some gastroparesis symptoms, which may be what made me feel crappy. I am taking a short break from both to see what's what.
For those on testosterone how often do you recommend they donate blood?
It is recommended that individuals on testosterone therapy consult with their healthcare provider to determine the appropriate frequency for blood donation.
My thyroid is hypoactive, and I’m also on low end of normal test levels, on the edge of low.
can the medication like Synthroid increase test levels?
Cool stuff we have seen once or twice patients who were hypothyroid and hypogonadal get an increase in testosterone from thyroid treatment but usually it was a T3/T4!combo or T3 only.
Balance My Hormones TRT UK - TRT Europe thanks!
I read that Low Free T can cause Hypothyroid... maybe you need TRT. I'd try that before Synthroid... JMHO.
Tucson JJ I just started trt
@@MrScoobieman I'd give it 4-6 weeks then re-test both thyroid and T levels... GL to you, don't worry if you feel funky during the "break-in" period.
I had my testosterone checked it was 266 my doctor has put me on 200 mg I think every two weeks is that the best course of action or should I do that every week thanks
100 mg every week would be better. My dose is a little less, I weigh 156 lbs.
Personally I'd start with once a week. I eventually went to twice a week with half the dosage.
Doctors suck, get your levels drawn yourself, buy testosterone cyp from underground labs for 10% the price, then dose yourself how ever you feel best based on extensive research and self education, then re-draw your labs every 6 months to see how you're trending.
Can you use a vial for over 1 month once opened? Or do u have to throw away after 1 month?
Multidose vials whilst convenient are considered to increase the risk of contamination the longer they are opened and used. Everytime you puncture the rubber bung you risk introducing new contaminants into the solution. Even bacteriostatic agents may not be enough to stop risk of infection if vials are kept after opening for more than the tested and recommended time alloted by the manufacturer. It's always a good idea to read the leaflet that accompanies your injectable medication.
@@balancemyhormones 9i
I’m sure the opened vial is good a few weeks, just keep it clean with alcohol wipes. I tape the top back on after cleaning it.
i have a grade 3 varicocele that is suffocating my left testicle and i have had it since i was about 13 years old. football coaches wanted to know whag was wrong with me because we lifted weights everyday and i was the only one that never put muscle or weight on. i still have it and have the worst symptoms of anxiety etc and im 23 and im going to do it. i know my levels are abnormally low. i just know it and can feel it…..?
i also have gynocemastia
Seems like your T might be low but your estrogen is high. I should see an endo.
Get your blood tested to find out the effects of the damage done.
Gotta get that Vericocele fixed, I also have it
Once you get TRT do you need to store it in a fridge or is room temperature fine?
It’s usually recommended to Store testosterone at room temperature and usually out I’d direct sunlight. Storing testosterone in the fridge may cause it to crystallise. Check the package leaflet for further instructions.
2 weeks in at this moment 200mg wk my question is i injected in the thigh both times and both time i have pain right above knee nowhere near my injection site is this normal
joshh41101 thigh injections can cause difficulties for some. You’re at higher risk for pain if the location isn’t spot on. The upper outer glute is a larger muscle
Group and once you’ve identified the correct location you may get less pain. Which testosterone Ester or combination of esters are you prescribed?
@@balancemyhormones thanks for response and its test cypionate /anastrozole *gs* oil also use a 27 gauge 1 inch needle...i watched countless videos so was pretty confident on the spot but next time going to try it in the glute i dont mind the soreness just didn't know if i would still get the same affect or i maybe didnt go deep enough/wrong angle
also HCG every 3 days 50ml
Try glutes or delts
@@matthewbooth9869 i actually stopped getting the soreness so maybe my body just had to get used to the test. being introduced..still thanks for the help
Hair issue is hereditary
Why do some men experience roid rage and others are fine? And depersonalization, what could help this?
TRT is not roids. Dose is far lower in terms of testosterone as well.
TRT is indeed steroids - just not the hardcore stuff the pros use. I take TRT and when my T levels are high I’m prone to an occasional short fuse. That’s the only thing I don’t like about it cause I’m normally pretty mellow. And it’s not something I can control through reasoning - it just comes out. I was mellow when I was younger (when my T levels were high normally) so I’m not really sure why it happens. Fortunately it doesn’t happen often. Honestly, don’t let that stop you from trying it. Not sure what you mean by depersonalization - I’ve not heard of that as a side effect - I don’t sense anything like that - if anything I’m more gregarious.
@@Encourageable That's interesting if anything I feel more mellow on TRT. I would suggest there is some other factor causing your anger. It could be your dose is incorrect as well.
@@mrofnocnon often the reason for roid rage is elevated oestrogen levels
I suffered for years with depersonalisation. I tried tablets from the Dr's ( not help at all!! ) after years and years researching. Vitamin b complex vitamin d 4000iu blackseed oil omega 3. No sugar at all!!! Natural only fruit etc. Water no caffeine. Its all but gone!! Never felt better and I had it horrifically bad. May take months to help but it will. Also intermittent fasting is amazing.
Is it normal to have a knot after injection???
Eric Morris it’s not ideal and may sometimes happen if you inject into the fat or the IM injection is too shallow. In some cases it may be a reaction to the preservative or oil used. Do you have pain at the injection site or is it red or is it just a knot? What type of injection did you do and how did you administer it? IM or SubQ.?
SubQ in stomach should I go deeper with the injection or does it matter with subQ? and it’s test cypionate.
Just slight pain to the touch
Eric Morris please consult your doctor as we cannot give medical advice but subQ injections are notorious for causing those lumps. Even when I do a solution like hcg which is meant for subQ I will occasionally get bruising in the stomach so imagine a more viscous oil base like testosterone injections and you may be much more prone to lumps.
@@ericmorris7447 Just stop doing SubQ, it just isn't a good idea with oil based compounds. water based no issues or not much but oil is a problem as the rule not the exception. 1.5" 25 gauge needle in the Delt, rotate sides, you can use your Lats as well just stay the hell away from your quads!

Does TRT make me lose hair?
TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) may cause hair loss in some men who are genetically predisposed to male pattern baldness. Testosterone can be converted into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that can shrink hair follicles and lead to hair loss. However, not all men who undergo TRT experience hair loss, and the risk may be mitigated by using medications such as finasteride or dutasteride to block the conversion of testosterone to DHT. It is important to discuss any concerns about hair loss with your healthcare provider before starting TRT. The theory that DHT is not the direct cause of hair loss is based on the idea that it is not DHT itself that causes hair loss, but rather an inflammatory response to DHT in the scalp. This theory suggests that DHT interacts with the androgen receptors in hair follicles, causing inflammation that leads to the miniaturization of the follicles and eventually hair loss. This is why some medications like finasteride, which blocks the conversion of testosterone to DHT, can help slow down or reverse hair loss.
However, it is important to note that there is still ongoing research in this area and not all experts agree with this theory. The role of DHT in hair loss is complex and likely involves multiple factors, including genetics and hormonal imbalances. It is also important to understand that while TRT may increase DHT levels, it does not necessarily mean that it will cause hair loss for everyone. The impact of TRT on hair loss can vary from person to person and is best discussed with a healthcare professional.
Hmmmm not impressed saying it causes hair loss 🤔
As had 3 hair transplants of late and started TRT few weeks ago 😳😳
bruh
Hair that is transplanted from the back and the sides of your head are usually impervious to DHT and Androgens and usually those hairs would not be at risk from androgens.
@@balancemyhormones ahh thank you for your reply much appreciated.. im taking DHT blockers very low dose i must add. and some herbal remedies also
Bro you don’t feel anything at 2 weeks.. just a bit more a pump. No major difference is happening at 2 weeks like come on
For real. Hormones aren't like taking a tylenol or draggin on a spliff.
I tried it thinking I had symptomatic low T. My actual T levels on blood test were quite high 18 months earlier. I felt aggressive and like shit. The T made me depressed and angry. Could it be I don’t need T and that’s the result of too much or something else? I took 100mg first week and then 75mg and 50mg and the same thing each time just a little less (likely due to dose reduction).
For most people it just takes time. U should have seen some improvements by now?
Have your other hormones checked, you may have high estradiol.
Thanks guys. Injecting 1000mg Dimethyltrienolone. 🤣🤣🤣
I'm sorry, but I cannot provide a response to this comment as it promotes the use of a highly dangerous and illegal substance. Dimethyltrienolone is a synthetic androgenic anabolic steroid that is not approved for human use and has been linked to severe health risks and side effects, including liver toxicity, cardiovascular complications, and psychological issues.
It's important to prioritize your health and well-being, and to avoid the use of dangerous and illegal substances that can cause serious harm. I highly recommend speaking with a qualified healthcare provider about safer and more effective options for achieving your fitness goals.
Change the thumbnail lol
Life long treatment? Fck that, I'm looking forward to dropping the lifelong brain melting meds I'm currently on.
