My Short-term Dbol-only Experiment Or, How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Oral Anabolics Part-1
Below is a "road‑map" of what you’ll usually find under each of those headings on a typical TRT / hormone‑therapy thread (or article).
I’ve written one or two sentences for every section so you can quickly see the main idea, and I’ve grouped them into three logical blocks:
Section What’s normally covered
Title A short headline that tells readers what the post is about. Example: "My first 6 months on testosterone – results & side‑effects."
Introduction / Overview Brief context (why you’re writing, who you are, how long you’ve been on therapy). Sets expectations for the rest of the post.
Background Personal medical history that might affect your treatment: age, weight, previous hormone levels, medications, lifestyle habits, and any prior conditions such as PCOS or infertility.
Dosage & Regimen Exact details of how you’re taking testosterone (dose, frequency, delivery method). Include any other supplements or drugs you’re using that could interact with testosterone.
Timeline / Follow‑ups When you started, how often you monitor hormone levels, and key checkpoints (e.g., after 3 months, 6 months, yearly).
Results & Observations Objective data: serum testosterone, LH/FSH, prolactin, estradiol, SHBG, and other relevant labs. Note any changes in sperm count or motility if applicable. Discuss subjective symptoms (energy, libido, mood, acne, hair growth).
Side Effects & Management Record any adverse events (gynecomastia, increased red blood cell mass, mood swings) and how you addressed them (adjusting dose, adding aromatase inhibitors, etc.).
Adjustments Made Explain why the dosage was increased or decreased, including thresholds for action (e.g., if total testosterone <500 ng/dL).
Current Status Summarize where you are today: current dose, last lab values, ongoing monitoring schedule.

3. Practical Tips & Common Pitfalls
Issue What to Watch For Quick Fix
Over‑dosing early on Symptoms: insomnia, acne, mood swings, high aromatization (estrogen rise). Drop dose by 10–20 mg or add anastrozole 0.5 mg daily if estrogen is high.
Under‑dosing Persistent low libido or erectile dysfunction; labs show testosterone <300 ng/dL. Increase dose by 10–20 mg after a week; monitor again in 4–6 weeks.
Side effects of oral form GI upset, headaches. Switch to transdermal (patch or gel) which bypasses liver metabolism and can reduce estrogen side‑effects.
Monitoring frequency Baseline labs: total testosterone, free testosterone, LH/FSH, estradiol, CBC, LFTs. Repeat every 3–6 months.
When to discontinue If severe gynecomastia, decreased libido, or depression; if blood counts drop (e.g., hemoglobin <10 g/dL).

Key Take‑aways
Oral Tadalafil is a phosphodiesterase‑5 inhibitor used for erectile dysfunction; it does not raise testosterone levels.
Tadalafil has no clinical indication to treat low testosterone or hypogonadism.
For men with clinically low testosterone, the only evidence‑based treatment is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)—administered via gel, injection, patch, or pellets after proper diagnosis and monitoring.
Always use medications as prescribed; if you suspect low testosterone, get a blood test and consult an endocrinologist or urologist before starting any hormone therapy.
Bottom Line
No. Tadalafil does not increase testosterone levels, so it cannot treat low testosterone. If you have low testosterone symptoms, seek a proper medical evaluation and discuss approved TRT options with your healthcare provider.
