Hi All,

I hope this is the correct section for this particular inquiry.

The question is in regards to a supplement TestoFX (Allmax). A couple months ago I started taking it and did the 2 months cycle and 2 weeks off. To preface this entire thing I have two conditions which can have direct effects on Testosterone. I have Hypothroidism (Hashimoto's) and am on a 150mcg dose of Synthroid. Also I have obstructive Sleep Apnea (caused by my tongue being too large, it slides back when I reach the REM state of sleep and blocks my airway) (I have a CPAP machine). I started looking at testosterone boosters because I have many side effects of low test. Depression, mood, lack of ability to deal with stress, weight gain (significant), little to no sex drive.

During the 2 months on TestoFX all of this changed, I felt great all around mood, stress and even physical changes. When I stopped taking it for the 2 weeks my mood tanked, I would say I was basically intolerable for 2 weeks. I have started it again and also approached my doctor after doing some research into Hypothyroidism and the impacts it on has on test and also obstructive sleep apnea and the impacts. I am going to get blood work done to check the levels.

I am wondering does anyone else have any experience with this product? If so did you notice any changes? Is it harmful to just continue taking it rather than taking two weeks off? I worry about low testosterone due to the two conditions that directly affect it. My fitness goal of hitting 15% body fat by April is important to me and hope to investigate all avenues and potential barriers so I can punch through them and get there then set a new goal.

Thank you in advance for any advice and taking the time to read this. If anything is out of place or I have posted this in the wrong section please let me know.

Thanks

I have little faith in any Testosterone enhancers, and for that reason, can't comment on the product. You did the correct thing in asking to get your Test levels checked.

Thank you for the reply. I am getting the blood work done next week, hoping for good news.
 
Most test boosters are horse shit. There are a few studies showing a short blip in test increase but i never found any worked.
That being said, if any work for you - run with it and take advantage of your luck.
 
@Phlobon are you on TRT ?

How old are you ?

Dr may not want to give you test if you are still in your baby making years.

As far as test boosters most are just high dose of zinc. Check the label but that’s typically what it is. Zinc is great at boosting your mood but higher doses of it come with other issues. As well the effects will diminish over time requiring higher doses.

I would try magnesium before bed as it will even your mood and should help you sleep a bit better.

You are going down the right road as far as blood work, hopefully you have a good dr and they can get you on the right protocol before too long.
 
More than likely placebo. You’ll get more of a boost in your test levels by not jerking off for a week lol

Daa is the only natural supplement that might actually work for raiseing test. I used it for pct one time at 3g, felt like it was working but i was getting weird ball pain and sropped it

Sorry for the delay in reply. I am 37, not on TRT but have been investigating it. My doctor looked at me like i was crazy when i mentioned the DHT blocker and cortisol blocker in TestoFX.

I got a vasectomy at 21 (which took some fighting) so baby making years are non-issue. I will post the ingredients label for testofx later. Just out and about at the moment. Thanks the for the tip about magnesium. I have been taking it in the morning.

Thanks

Doctors tell me jerking off a lot or banging a lot actually boosts your natural test levels...
 
I have started looking at other things. Thanks for the replies. I hope everyone is having a great start to their weekends.
 
If you want to stick with natural substances try Tongkat Ali. I see it’s in those ingredients but at a useless doseage. A lot of studies out there that have shown it “can” and In some cases “does” increase testosterone. I’ve tried it before, I took 3 pills a day for a month(1800mg/day), and although I didn’t get any bloods(this was well after a blast and my pct)- months after I fact I was still feeling like garbage . I had a buddy who introduced me to it years ago, he’s a mega naturalist and I laughed at him. But I have to take it back because it worked for me I was getting good morning wood and my mood and all the good feels came along with it. That’s all I have to go off of but nothing at all like running a test cycle obviously but felt quite similar effects although much different but it may be something worth a shot for you,
 
Go to the doc and get on trt.
Fenugreek is a well known natural test booster
It's also what my wife's doc told her to take to increase laction lol
So there is no replacement for true hrt
