So I finally started on Tribulus again yesterday.   I was taking it a couple years ago, and have also cycled on and off DHEA a couple times.   So now its like I'm starting over again with everything.

(for all those concerned, i have done lots of reading on this, and am taking it with milk thistle for my liver and a multivitamin).   

So I'm feeling pretty amazing today.  Woke up more easily than usual and feel super motivated to get stuff done today, and the best part, instead of feeling like I should work out and being lazy about it,  i actually really want to today.    And I will after I post this.

I don't really care about major obvious physical changes, but I'm hoping to have similar results than the last time.  A couple years ago, i felt like it helped make workouts more effective and i noticed quicker muscle develpment, and improved mood.  I'm hoping it will help with my depression and anxiety like it did before.  I'll try to post some pics soon and keep you guys updated.

I haven't tried DHEA yet, but I have noticed some changes on TT. Well ok, about a year ago I only took TT for one week, and this past month I took it for one week again. I noticed a huge difference between the two weeks. My first session felt like I was stronger, more energetic, hotter (I'm talking body temperature-wise, though I did feel sexier LOL), and I split the daily dose into 4 smaller doses in one day. My more recent week of taking TT, I did one dose in the morning and I didn't feel any different than before I took TT, so it seems that dividing your daily dose over the course of the day may bode better results. TT does seem to be a really good energy/sexual potency supplement. DHEA on the otherhand, I haven't tried it and I'm hesitant too because of the controversy about it and the fact that I've had hypothyroid at one point and I don't know if DHEA will make it worse.

That's great you're taking it with milk thistle, I try to do that too. I'd be interested in knowing if you ever experience any other effects on TT and/or DHEA.

I've been thinking about trying Tribulus myself.  But I've been wondering where do you buy it at?  Also, what brand do you use?

I tried DHEA. The at first I felt like I had more energy, and but after a awhile all I really got was more nose hair, acne, and a very messed up sleep cycle. If you want changes its better just to spend your money on T.

JohnAlex, I ordered it online through vitacost.com.  The cheapest ground shipping took about 4 business days for delivery, and everything on there seemed a lot cheaper than what I've seen in stores.   I'm taking the vitacost brand, 625mg caspules.   

(mods, sorry if I've broken any rules by sharing the link/ doseage. I understand if you have to remove this)

I took some before pics today, and as soon as I can get them uploaded from my phone I will post them here.

Edit- Sharky- I know that prescribed, injected T is the best way to go, and I plan to stop the TT and DHEA to start T as soon as I can, but with my current job and living situation, this is all I can do now,  and even if it only gives me tiny changes, Its better than nothing right now.  Even if no one else notices the difference, i know and for me that helps me a lot mentally.

I'm naturally screwed up, so I have a high DHEA level already. I don't know what it's like for someone who has normal hormone levels, but having a higher level from medical problems is not good.
DHEA is linked to having a youthful appearance. Since many transmen struggle with people thinking they are much younger than they are, I wouldn't think that taking DHEA would really be a particularly good idea. Not to mention that having high levels of it comes with incredible risk for a lot of cardiovascular problems.

But if it works for you, more power to ya!

update...

Day 3, first day at work since starting on TT and DHEA again.  I was working out back with one of my co-workers when she commented that I seem to be in a good mood. She said that I seemed like, real happy and more relaxed instead of  fake, forced happy like I usually am at work.  I started thinking about it more after that, and realized that I did actually feel way less anxious, and didn't get nearly as angsty as I usually get today.  I feel like my issues with anxiety and depression are almost as bad as the dysphoria issues, so I'm pretty happy with it so far.   

I know 3 days is way too soon to really judge how well its working, but still, yay. 

I almost posted this the other day, but then changed my mind, but I'm going to go for it....  Thats right, pink boxer briefs. and my binder is folded up more than normal to show more abs. 





and a face shot, with clothes on...



I know its not really the point of the thread, but still curious what you guys think.  do i pass?

Wow, your binder works really well, and everybody needs a pair of pink underwear!  You definitely pass, and you manage to pass without looking like a little kid. I think your haircut and facial expression kind of help with that.
