Work ethic would be my guessAll joking aside, why are there women open BBers who can get huge but a lot of men (myself included) struggle to even get into shape to win a local contest?

I’m not gonna live in your make believe world, I stopped doing that when I was 7.
Never gonna chime in on anything again if it crosses political lines, incase some admin gets a skin itch and upgrades a commenting ban to a forum ban.I am amused that you espouse your beliefs as facts and reject basic biology. Nobody invited you to share your beliefs nor to debate politics. OP has a very specific set of circumstances and rather than be helpful, you chose the feel threatened and act in a hurtful way.
You could, while preserving your beliefs about what comprises a man or a woman, act with compassion and respect the liberty of this human being and either offer something that aids them or simply offer nothing at all. Instead, you chose to take offense at something that has zero probability of harming you or those you care about and lash out recklessly.
I would just do incremental test c or e increases, checking lipids/bp/e2/prolactin etc the entire time. And keep the test probably 300 or less. Let’s be fair and honest, you are biologically female so it’s not going to take as large a dose for you to get incredible physical effects from the testosterone. And longevity may not matter to you now, but, it will.Hey,
Can anyone point me in the direction of a good starter cycle? Have been in the gym for about 5 years, I'm now 33 and struggling to make any gains. I've been taking peptides for the past couple of years but more so tailored towards injuries than anything. I've been on this site for about a year, the reason i'm posting off a fresh account is because i'm trans and cba to deal with the onslaught of transphobia people usually get from it. Not looking to debate any bigots just looking for some info
I take testosterone, which just keeps me in the normal male range, wondered if there any trans guys out there with any advice?
Cheers!

I am in 100% agreement, but that is in no way helpful to the original poster's reason for posting a question here. Hence, I did not offer an unsolicited opinion and simply answered the questions asked.Negative. I was born with dick and balls (ironically same size balls as I have now). That means I was born a male. If I decide (by way of mental illness) to chop that dick and tiny balls off I’m still a male. That’s not ignorance nor cruelty. Thats fact. That’s truth. Same goes for someone born with female anatomy. They are a female. If they decide to rearrange any of those organs or remove any they are still what they were born as, a female. Those are the facts. You can believe something else, but the facts remain the same. I’m not gonna live in your make believe world, I stopped doing that when I was 7.
would be nice if there were some competition here with janoshik. One person having a monopoly on the testing game doesn't make for competitive pricing.
Coming from peptide world, there is no difference in prices in regard to testing. Shipping is just cheaper for domestic testers
There are other companies that do testing some US domestic, the issue is getting vendors to accept results of those tests.
The other big tester from what I know is mz biolabs or something like that. They are in the US and I know some legally operating companies that sell research chemicals use them. Jano has made some commentary about them as well I believe, something around their lack of result verification. They seem like the best bet so far though.It's not just vendors. There are members who say they only trust Jano testing. If more testing services were accepted by members, vendors would follow.
I don't know how much of Jano's business relies on Meso, but if other testing services became more acceptable here, there may be more competitive pricing in the future.

Why would a trans man go to the women's subforum? He has entirely different concerns and things to worry about than a woman going on cycle.Uh, so a chick wants a starter cycle. Does meso have female subforum like other forums do? You should start there….
This gotta be a troll job.
This is true, but with that, it also means the OP never went through male puberty, OP went through female puberty. I’m not a biologist but I would certainly assume that hysterectomy aside, OP will respond to 200mg/wk of testosterone in a bigger way (or, rather, a more noticeable way) than a 35 year old andropause male will. That’s what I meant.Putting aside any debate on this what exactly that means, the fact that OP has had a hysterectomy changes things substantially in terms of the hormonal milieu one might expect.
Not bad advice otherwise.

And also, hysterectomy aside, and again, I fully acknowledge I am not a biologist, but I would assume pituitary and thyroid hormones are still going to come into play here.
Because of these things, I stand by my comment,
Research on this topic is sparse, nobody is studying the effects of AAS on biological females that have transitioned. What limited research there is suggests that you are correct, but that the largest difference will have come from a lack of exposure to testosterone in utero and in infancy, which influences AR density and organ development. Lacking testosterone in puberty would likely limit the absolute mass the transitioned person may see.
With reduced AR density, there is a likelihood of being a hyporesponder. In which case, the protocol you suggested is a prudent approach. I'm sure many of us have seen this happen in hyporesponsive young men who get on gear too early. A couple hundred mg/wk and it's all sides.
You are correct to be concerned about thyroid response. OP should add T3, T4, and TSH to their labs.
Which, I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned yet: CBC, CMP, lipids, e2, free and total T, bioavailable T, LH, FSH, SHBG, prolactin, and DHT.
It was well-reasoned and more prudent than my advice.
Sounds like you’re offended because I’m certainly not. I didn’t feel anything when I wrote that. I didn’t mention my beliefs or politics. I brought facts. Basic Biology facts. If facts hurt a persons feelings that’s no body’s problem except the person with hurt feelings who can’t accept truth or facts. Right now that’s you.I am amused that you espouse your beliefs as facts and reject basic biology. Nobody invited you to share your beliefs nor to debate politics. OP has a very specific set of circumstances and rather than be helpful, you chose the feel threatened and act in a hurtful way.
You could, while preserving your beliefs about what comprises a man or a woman, act with compassion and respect the liberty of this human being and either offer something that aids them or simply offer nothing at all.

Also, if haven’t ever seen it, you should watch Kindergarten Cop; it has an excellent biology lesson in it. Here’s a clip:I am amused that you espouse your beliefs as facts and reject basic biology.

TREN is supper safe bro, they give it to cows.Are you seriously suggesting someone who is totally new to roids, lacks knowledge about diet, training and medication and all this TREN right away?So much about harm reduction...
Supper safe? Yes, it is safe for us to give to our supper. I really hope you were doing that on purpose cuz I thought it was fuckin hilarious. LmfaoTREN is supper safe bro, they give it to cows.

By AR density I assume we are talking about androgen receptor density? Or did that go over my wee little head?Regarding the first point, the exposure to Test during puberty and the AR density. Do you think thats something that even without puberty but with high doses of AAS could be fixed i.e. the longer you exposure yourself to it the more AR density you get?
