Actually, I’m trying something new. Based on that video that was presented on skin aging using testosterone in a cream. Not for TRT for face wrinkles and plumping.

I have some extra testosterone my TRT prescription. And, so I used one ml 200 mg testosterone with about 2 ml of DMSO, and then used 10 squirts of Palmer’s face/body lotion because it already has oil and wax, and is very quick absorbing. The testosterone/cypionate is in oil already. Just made my own little skunk works product… for face wrinkle lotion. It blended very easily. Putting on tonight. Let’s see if my results in 6 months are as good as those nursing home subjects in 1967. Made enough for probably a month or more. Will use nightly and in the morning.

Here’s the update. Woke up this morning after putting this new TRT lotion on my face and surprisingly, everything looked pretty good this morning. No reaction, no swelling, no redness. Skin felt soft… actually was less puffy in the under eyes… showered and put on another dose of lotion.

Let’s see how this goes the next week…

The testosterone with DMSO and Palmer’s Cocoa lotion seems to be doing well… going on 2 weeks.

Having done many of these in the ER … it’s not just the pain, it is often permanent loss of function after treatment.

Briefly the process is a nerve block, then a 19 or 21 ga butterfly needle into each into each corpus carvernosum with irrigation and removal of blood and injection of phenylephrine. Over 50% of the cases I’ve seen are not related to PDE-5’s.

However, this is rare enough - I’m happy enough taking 5 mg a day.

I think you need to put this in a separate thread. I am curious about this myself… maybe testing it on my neck or the top of my forearm where I have sun damage.

I agree Brian, maybe put this on a separate thread with images, and then also, along with the new hair tonic using… 2’-Deoxy-D-Ribose. Going on day 4.

Will do… these aren’t tadalafil in any way.

Excellent. I look forward to it.

I’d imagine a Trimix injection is the most common cause of priapism and the only solution to the permanent loss of function is a penile implant, or “the button” as I once heard somebody call it.

Interestingly, and it is a small group of folks I’ve treated - although I had 1 patient each, 2 days in a row a couple of years ago. Trazodone has been the more common culprit in my small group.

My Urologist has had me on 5mg tadalafil 4 years… every night at bed time for urinary health. Good stuff.

I’ve been taking 2.5 mg for a few years. No worries about prolonged erections and most of the benefit

Why not Hydroxyzine with shorter half life? Do you use doxylamine long term?
