androgens

Hi all, What are the risks of keeping free T & DHT at supraphysiological levels (I’ve attached my bloodwork) for prolonged periods of time via the use of transdermal DHT & T gels? I’m been using transdermal 20% DHT solution & 20% T solution from Alphagels Compounding for the past year and have...

Defects in eye health are often paired with endocrine disorders Hormones play a major role in keeping healthy eye & skin moisture. and especially testosterone / androgens for keeping eyes moist e.g dry eye disorder is common post menopause when hormones drop replacing hormones post menopause...

Even teenage girls have pigmented underarm hair so I'm not sure how this happens to a male. I had also lost all visible forearm hair even though I had normal brown forearm hair prior to puberty then no longer visible after about 20 years (just fine unpigmented vellus hair). Unfortunately the...

A study not directly dealing with disease, though its findings are probably relevant for all diseases. It demonstrates that in addition to the so-called "active transport", which we have been told is the dominant mechanism in steroid absorption and intracellular relevance, there also exists a...

I'm a bit confused as to whether I would benefit from a progesterone + DHEA supplement. Maybe 20-50 mg progesterone + 2-5 mg DHEA (inspired by Structural Requirements For An Optimal Anti-Catabolic Steroid). I'm thinking such a supplement, especially progesterone, could take the stress of the...

Hi brothers, thought I’d given an update on my DHT gel journey for PE as I’ve finally hit the 20 week mark. I am proud of my modest gains that I have achieved and the confidence boost has been the best part especially the weekly comments I’ve been getting from my girl. AGE: 27 years old...

Anyone know of other substances or ways to lower the conversion of DHT to 3adiol other than nicotine? I suspect this is one of my issues potentially after gaining a lot of weight so looking for ways to improve this as I work on lowering body fat. Nicotine helps give me that calm masculine...

After thinking about peating, I wondered: why are children so metabolically ideal that they even overtake elite athletes by this factor, if their androgenic level is very low? Is it strange that everyone on the forum is talking about the rejuvenating effect of androgens, if children are the...

I decided to test pregnenolone to get a good sense before I hop back on to supplementing it. The result seems very low? The range from Labcorp is <151. Checking online I've seen the lower range being 33 ng/DL. The other tests I got, in case they help understand my pregnenolone result were...

Interesting article.. I was curious anyones good or bad experience with 11 keto dht? Human studies with supplementing it are lacking. An androgen found in fish but also produced by the gonads clearly and potently https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article/101/10/3582/2764896 “Expression of...

I usually use 2-3 drops androsterone+4-5 drops pansterone once a day, or slightly less of each 2x a day, and the effects over the course of several months were quite noticeable. Improved energy, motivation, self-discipline, fat loss and muscle gain, decreased depressive symptoms. I wanted to...

I'm not sure if this study has been posted before , at least I haven found anything under the "DHEA" tag. Anyways, it's always good to have more in vivo evidence for peaty substances and what they do in real life. This study gave aging men with partial androgen deficiency (58-69)the "low dose"...

So for the past week I have been applying 1 dose (4 drops) of Pansterone (sfa, anhydrol) alongside 2-4 drops of Kuinone (every 2 days) to the scrotum in hopes of raising androgens and thus libido and sexual function. Positives since starting: - Occasional morning wood (although not 100%) -...

https://academic.oup.com/endo/article/157/1/368/2251856 perhaps this shows how non-aromatizable steroids can be more beneficial than testosterone in certain subjects. What do you think @haidut? is trenbolone peaty? /s

Objectives: Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is known as the main cause of androgenetic alopecia (AGA). We previously reported that sulforaphane (SFN), a compound extracted from broccoli, promotes hair regeneration in ob/ob mice by lowering plasma DHT levels. The aim of this study was to assess whether...

Our dachshund (now 4 and a half) was castrated pretty early as a pup. One of his testicles hadn't descended properly and we were advised by the vet to get it done as there was a risk of cancer the longer it was left. I know now this was probably an error and we should have gotten a second...
