I ran a test/ment/EQ cycle over a year ago. It has been hands down my favorite. Trest cyp is where it is at. With Ment, I think it is best to pin twice a day because of not binding to shgb, as you pointed out. Or I should say that is what is best for me, I have a high clearance rate.Another good article about MENT. The reduced bone mass means total estradiol + 7⍺-methylestradiol was insufficient. Adding a very little bit of test or using slightly more MENT would have fixed this.
Evidence for tissue selectivity of the synthetic androgen 7 alpha-methyl-19-nortestosterone in hypogonadal men - PubMed
The potent synthetic androgen 7 alpha-methyl-19-nortestosterone (MENT) is resistant to 5 alpha-reductase but is a substrate for aromatase. It may therefore offer selective sparing of the prostate gland while supporting other androgen-dependent tissues. MENT acetate implants were administered for...pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
As an androgen, MENT is about 10x potency of testosterone. That's why the dose should be escalated slowly. Going from 5mg > 25mg/day MENT is equivalent of 350mg > 1750mg test per week!
As an estrogen, 1mg MENT is equivalent to about 2mg of test, when you factor in the rate of aromatization (23% of test), the binding affinity (102% of estradiol, ER transactivation (4x test in a study with estrogen-resistant T47Dco breast CA cells), and resistance of binding to SHBG (the 7⍺-methylestradiol is 100% free, just like the androgen). So 10mg/day MENT will give estrogenicity of about 140mg/wk test. Plus whatever estradiol is made via natural + endogenous testosterone, HCG, etc.
You can see how people get in trouble easily with MENT by getting a vial and dosing it like other AAS ~ 50mg/day. That's going to give the estrogen of about 700mg/wk test, which is AI territory for most people.
On another note, I started OEP's EQ @ 30mg/day on Sept 1. I usually have to dose 12.5mg aromasin 1-2x per week. I know EQ takes a very long time to build up, but I haven't needed aromasin for 9 days now. Unlike primo EQ might actually have a strong AI effect in me... which means it will pair perfectly with MENT. I've only found one other guy (on reddit) who did a MENT + EQ cruise, and apparently it was very successful. I guess I'll be patient #2.
Also added a 15mg/day DHB Sept 1, and my strength has already increased signficantly after being at a plateau for a while. It might be the best compound ever for strength.
Replacing 30mg/day primo with 30mg/day EQ and 15mg/day DHB seems to be a huge win so far. I've run primo several times now and have been less than impressed with it.
Interested in seeing that bloodwork on DHB.
All things considered, I think I’m going to start relying on just testosterone. DHB and Ment have too many obscure things to keep in mind. And there still isn’t a well established consensus in the community that they’re worthy of using regularly vs mast or primo. I don’t even use mast or primo much anymore since just upping the testosterone and getting the same results.
Lately this test, EQ and low dose ment has been alright. Better than alright before I added the ment, I’m getting edema and water retention that I usually don’t have on test only. No dietary changes. My electrolyte and water intake is the same. Stress, sleep etc no major factor other than ment. Test + EQ was giving me pretty good results, the same as just test but with less estrogen albeit consistently the same range 20-30pg. No decrease in dryness or fullness compared to test. But the ment is complicating things and unfortunately I can’t test for the 7a estradiol. The estrogen is just that potent even on 5mg and 700EQ. If I didn’t have my glands cut my nipples would be screaming from this stuff.
Got the same info on an order I was going to place. Holding off for one of their 15% discount periods so the total increase might only be 5%
. It may happen, it may not, but I really don't need anything right now.

Out of curiosity I went to take a look at the declared value of my uae boxes. I've got 3 boxes with a thousand tabs each which were declared below 15 bucks each lol. 
Good thinking. I made my order because I'd like to order to arrive somewhat soon. But in the future, I'll keep a look out for 15% off specials.Got the same info on an order I was going to place. Holding off for one of their 15% discount periods so the total increase might only be 5%

I wonder how they're going to declare the costs of shipments with the end of deminimus. I hear the fines are going to be pretty bad if they get caught. Interesting times.

My uric acid was low (2.3) on my last set of labs. Last time I was on reta it was in range , I just looked up low uric acid and you’re the only person I’ve seen mention it on meso so I’m just wondering if this is something to be concerned about.

I have no idea either. I just ignored it lol. From what I've searched it didn't seem to be anything of concern
It's not a delusion if it's true.
Thanks. I had the same question.
You might be right. I didn't believe you. Then I looked up my insurance records. My health insurance hasn't charged me for atorvastatin (Lipitor). I am currently having a liver problems and the hepatologist believes the atorvastatin is the most likely cause. Don't avoid it because of me - that is considered a rare side effect.
This is the AI response to whether insurance has to pay for statins:
Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), certain health plans are required to cover generic statin medications at no cost to the patient, but only for eligible individuals using the drug for preventive purposes. The coverage is not universal, and the specific rules have been impacted by recent court challenges.
Who is eligible for full statin coverage
Private health insurance plans must cover generic statins with no cost-sharing for a specific group of patients, as defined by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF):
- Age range: Adults between 40 and 75 years old.
- Risk factors: Patients must have one or more cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, such as dyslipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, or smoking.
- Heart disease risk: The patient's estimated 10-year risk of a cardiovascular event must be 10% or greater.
- Primary prevention: The prescription must be for primary prevention—meaning the patient has not already experienced a cardiovascular event.
The full coverage requirement applies to most non-grandfathered private health insurance plans, including those in the individual, small group, and large group markets.
Exceptions include:
- Grandfathered plans: These are plans that existed before the ACA was passed in 2010 and have maintained their status. These plans are not subject to the preventive care mandate.
- Medicare and some Medicaid plans: While these government programs cover statins, their coverage rules are different. For example, Medicare may cover most recommended preventive services with no cost, but not all of the ACA requirements for private plans.
- Generic vs. brand name: The zero-cost coverage applies only to generic statins. If a patient requires a brand-name statin, a copayment or other cost-sharing will likely apply.
- For treatment, not prevention: If a patient is prescribed a statin to treat existing cardiovascular disease rather than prevent it, the zero-cost provision does not apply. In this case, the medication is subject to the plan's standard drug coverage rules, including any copayments or deductibles.
- Supreme Court challenges: While the Supreme Court recently upheld the core of the ACA's preventive care mandate, the ongoing legal challenge in Braidwood Management Inc. v. Becerra has created some uncertainty. In June 2024, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the mandate for a small group of plaintiffs but limited its ruling, requiring health plans to continue providing free preventive care for now. The ultimate outcome of this case is still pending before the Supreme Court.
