Testim

Testosterone

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and androgen in males. In humans, testosterone plays a key role in the development of male reproductive tissues such as testicles and prostate, as well as promoting secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle and bone mass, and the growth of body hair. It is associated with increased aggression, sex drive, dominance, courtship display, and a wide range of behavioral characteristics. In addition, testosterone in both sexes is involved ...

I just started Testim today after being diagnosed with Low-T. Not sure what my tested levels were at the moment, but have a call into my Dr to get this info. My wife is very concerned with this drug. She has read that it is dangerous to her and my 6 year old daughter. My first dose (1%) was this morning and I followed the instructions for application. I have noted a strong smell on my hands and I am afraid to touch anything much less my daughter. I am wearing a shirt, but my wife is still nervous about it. What can I tell my wife that would ease her concerns? I want to give this treatment a chance. I have weak erections, I have been gaining weight in which I thought was normal, decrease in muscle mass, trouble concentrating at work, etc…. At first I thought I was ADD or something ...

Can anyone tell me the comparisson of C-Testosterone cream as compared to Testim. I was a Testim user for years, recently due to loosing my med insurance, i was switched to the cream version. ## Based on my research, both medication are indicated to treat the same conditions or symptoms associated with a deficiency or absence of testosterone in males. As far as possible differences go, one of the main underlying factors between most products is probably going to be their list of inactive ingredients. Aside from testosterone (that may be made from soy), Testim contains the following inactive ingredients: purified water, pentadecalactone, carbopol, acrylates, propylene glycol, glycerin, polyethylene glycol, ethanol (74%), and tromethamine. I have yet to find a list for C-Testosterone Crea...

Hi. This is my sixth day in Pristiq 50 mg. If anyone has had a positive experience with this drug, could you please let me know? Does there ever come a time when there is that “ah-ha” day, when you feel great? So far just the simple side effects for me with fatigue, nausea, etc. The side effects alone are making disappointed so far. How long before my optimism gets better? Share your “positive” with me please! Thank you! ## Improvement usually comes gradually, as the side effects start to taper off, and everything improves, but that may take 4 to 6 weeks. According to FDA reports, along with the fatigue, and nausea, you may also experience dizziness, dry mouth, and mood changes. How are you doing, now? Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications? ...

I bought these pills a few days ago an was wandering if anyone has tried the green world slimming capsules and if they worked ## @ninja baby, I haven't taken the capsules myself, but I did come across a couple other discussion threads here that may be able to offer the type of feedback you're looking for: 1). Discuss/green-world-sliming-amaigrissant-capsule-217275.htm 2). Discuss/green-world-slimming-capsule-258087.htm Of all the comments I read in those threads, there seems to be about a 50/50 split among those who state that it works, and individuals reporting minor side effects (such as nausea or weight gain). Nevertheless, I hope this info helps readers develop a more well-rounded opinion on the green world slimming capsules and wish you good luck on reaching your goals! ## ...

I have been on testim 1% for 6 years and my TT has consistently been in the range of 450-500, using 2 tubes daily. Last May, my insurance company dropped testim and I am now starting to use Androgel 1.62. My new endocrinologist took me offer everything for 2 weeks to see where my numbers were. My TT was 190 an bioavailable and free T were 1/2 the # (bottom range) for both. My new doctor has started me on 1 pump daily of the 1.62. My feeling is that this 1 pump may be too little to get into the normal range of 5-600 TT. Any suggestions? ## Hello, Jeff! How are you? Your doctor is just being cautious, which is the right thing to do. Any time you switch a medication like this, there is no way of knowing how it will affect you. It may work better than the prior one, or it may not, but it is...

So far I've been reading all of the testimonials for this and it sounds great but I just want to make sure this is right for me. I want to lose about 15 pounds but I'm not over weight I just want to be a little thinner because that's what my aspiring occupation requires. So far most people who I have seen taking it say they started at 160-200 lbs. I am not near 160 so I'm not sure if this is okay for me or not. I've started taking them and have definitely noticed a suppressed appetite so I'm just making sure I should continue use. Help please! ## You need to be careful with this product, I just want to make you aware of that, before you try it. At one point it was ordered removed from availability in the U.S., because the FDA found it contain the undeclared drug ...

My 62yro boyfriend is having muscle pains in shoulder, shuffling at night, exhausted, leg cramps, feet hurt, tingling, some memory loss, slurring of words and I am soooooooooo worried! I need testimonies, doctors articles against lipitor anything to prove to him it is stealing his health. People say he walks like an old man. His tendon snapped and he couldn't walk on his foot.

I have pics of him where his shoulders have changed and he looks so much older. Help is needed. ## It sounds like he might be having some of the regular side effects of this class of drugs, plus possibly some more serious ones, such as Rhabdomy...

Hi I'm on gabapentin 300mg 3x's a day a total of 900mg. daily does this medication cause weight gain& are there any other side affects I should be concerned about? I'm reading different testimony's but not really getting a concrete answer? Thank you ## Hello, Hertzee! How are you doing? Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant that can also help with some types of nerve pain and mood disorders, so yes, it may cause some weight gain as a side effect, but that doesn't happen to everyone that takes it. Other side effects may include nausea, drowsiness and mood swings. Learn more Gabapentin details here. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## Hi ive been taking gabapentin 800mg 3xdaily i haven't put any weight on if anything i have actually lost weight,i am prescri...

nearing 50, and seem to be getting a few senior moments more often, I wont to start taking neurostin and want to know if it really works and is it worth the cost?? ## I have the same questions. I can't seem to find any testimonials from anyone who has tried it. ## Neurostin is an over the counter product, a supplement, touted, but thus NOT PROVEN to help with memory loss. ## Is anyone out there taking something that actually does work?

Just had Testopel pellets inserted in my backside. Forgot to ask doctor how long until they take effect. He's out of town. ## Your T level goes up right away with ANY T-therapy medication, such as Testopel, Androgel or Testim. Have tried them all over the past several years, and it is my experience that Testopel is far and away the best option. Why have to remember to use a sticky gel every single day when you can get Testopel that lasts not less than four or five months in my case and up to six months for others. It's actually less expensive, too! ## That answer is correct, they will start to work immediately and usually last between 4 to 6 months. Testopel is a Testosterone replacement therapy. Some side effects may include: erectile problems, hirsutism, headache and anxiety. ...

My mom just recently got diagnose with stage 4 lung cancer and I'm trying to figure out if H-86 is similar to a medicine called tarceva. I'm hoping to find out what h86 as well so if its a all natural then what is it? I heard that soursop helps kill cancer cells but is high in nuero toxicity so I'm hesitant to have my mom take anything while she is taking tarceva. Just wondering if anybody out there has some testimonials regarding H86, Tarceva or Soursop that actually helped them with their cancer. ## Hello, Sorry to hear about your mother's situation with cancer. Regarding H-86, there happen to be several other posts on this site asking questions about it as well, but I still have yet to find any information on it, at all. There is nothing listed in any of the medical l...

The HSI website is SOOOOO...classically laid out in the 'push' format that doesn't let you see where' its going until you get to "Order Now." I have no genuine knowledge about what they're selling or saying - in terms of validity - but I can definitively state this: Whenever I've seen a website set up like HSI's (usually its for financial services of some sort), it's been designed to lure people into making impulse purchases. The method used is always the same. The site discusses case after case from semi-anonymous testimony givers, indicating great success, but almost always using only initials or first names. Another indication is when the price of the product(s) is unusually high, but bears no reason for being so (except, perhaps amassing a fut...

I would like to know cause I take methadone and I've got subutex that a friend gave me but I thought it might hurt me ## I know for certain never to take suboxone..I take 90 mg of methadone and done a quarter of suboxone and litrally died they brung me back but I still have side effects from that nite ## @loco, I have to concur with becca on the fact that it's probably not safe to use either of these drugs within at least a few days of each other. One counteracts the other so much that it could potentially put your body into a life-threatening state of withdrawal (if taken at the wrong time). I have seen testimonies from other people who accidentally attempted this and later paid the price. Apparently when your receptors are filled with methadone, buprenorphine may take the meth...

I have scoliosis due to a tumor and a cyst. I was also told I have sciatica. If i have surgery I may never walk. My medicaid insurance wont pay for an epidoral. Is there anyway I can get a rx online? ## @tkat, Sorry to hear about your situation. I believe there's always a light at the end of every tunnel, so I would encourage you to not give up and keep focusing your attention on healing your body from the inside out. Nerves can regenerate and tumors can be killed off with the right approach (fresh raw organic fruits and vegetables juiced and eaten multiple times daily, along with some light physical therapy to keep yourself active.) There are many testimonies on Google, Youtube, Blogs, etc, showing how eating raw and vegan can benefit those facing such conditions. I think your best...

i am under treatment from a reputed doctor for diabetese type 2 and am prescribed gemere p1 tablated before food and metformin 500 after meals. Another reputed institute specialised in deabetology have precribed me glycomet trio 1 which is much effective. guide me which medicine i should continue. ## Since you're asking for guidance on which medication you should use for type 2 diabetes, I feel compelled to share my opinion on another avenue of treatment that may not have been considered. You may not have known this, but type 2 diabetes occurs from the food you eat on a day to day basis and has been proven to be reversed and cured on numerous occasions by simply changing your diet. If you do your homework, there are plenty of testimonies and scientific evidence demonstrating how Dia...

Today my Doctor suggested I try 'pot pills' for pain and to help me sleep. Does anyone know anything about these pills? I don't smoke pot. Do they help you sleep and r they good for pain? Ontario Canada ## As a personal user of cannabis for a sleep aid, I do find that the herb itself is quite beneficial for this. However I have never tried "pot pills" or "THC pills" as others refer to them. Regarding its use in pain management, my mom actually uses the plant itself for that, and she claims that it helps mask the pain to an extent (on an emotional and mental level); however if you want additional relief, I'd suggest growing the plant yourself and juicing the entirety of it. There are many testimonies on the web, mentioning how juicing the leaves, buds, sta...

I have Type 2 diabetes and have heard that DBX-13 a natural material maybe a way of helping or eliminating this problem ## Hi Jim, Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any specific details on DBX-13 anywhere on the web. Just a bunch of spam-like ads that briefly discuss its supposed benefits for curing diabetes. This is not to say that there is no cure, as I have personally seen type 2 diabetics get off their meds completely after changing their diet and exercise habits. This is probably the most natural way of curing most diseases, but often times it does take a great deal of will power and drive to make these necessary changes to leading a healthier lifestyle. I don't know about cures for type 1 diabetics, but I will say that there are several testimonies that can be found o...

Hi All, I just want to ask if anyone ever tried using medical cannabis as an alternative to meds? I suffer from a motorcycle accident and had a broken tibial plateau. I've undergone 2 surgeries, the first was bone grafting and they get some bones on my hip and put it on the crushed part of my tibial. Then they put some titanium plating on my broken bone. I had to endure 6 months of pain and anxiety. So I started reading articles about medical cannabis and how it can help you in terms of chronic pain, glaucoma, eating disorder, anxiety disorders and panic attacks, inflammation, even cancer and a lot more. CBD and THC are also new to me and I don’t even smoke. If this is true I cant find any solid conclusive evidence that speaks to its efficacy. Any personal experience or testim...
