Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is a common approach for men with low testosterone. While effective, TRT can sometimes cause fluctuations in hormone levels and increase hematocrit, which may raise cardiovascular risk. 3-AD (Dehydroandrosterol) offers a natural, HPTA-friendly way to complement TRT, helping men maintain stable testosterone levels and overall well-being.
What is 3-AD?
3-AD is a patented compound that supports the body’s natural testosterone production. Unlike synthetic hormones, it works with the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis (HPTA) to enhance testosterone levels without suppressing LH and FSH, the hormones responsible for signaling testosterone production.
How 3-AD Works with TRT
Adding 3-AD alongside TRT may provide several benefits:
- Slower testosterone decline after injections, potentially allowing longer intervals between shots
- Maintenance of hematocrit within safe ranges, reducing cardiovascular concerns
- Support for free, bioavailable, and total testosterone levels, improving energy, strength, and well-being
Bloodwork Results
- Real-world data supports the synergy of 3-AD with TRT:
- A TRT user taking 3-AD for six weeks saw total testosterone increase from 854 ng/dL to 1740 ng/dL
- Hematocrit decreased slightly from 52.8% to 51.6%, staying within a safe range
- Another user saw his total testosterone 1 day post injection 1121 ng/dL increase only 4.7% 5 days later to 1069 ng/dL vs 55% decline in the same dosing and injection protocol when 3-AD® was not used.
- Users reported increased energy, strength, and overall well-being
Why Men Choose 3-AD with TRT
Men choose 3-AD as a TRT adjunct for its HPTA-friendly profile, metabolic support, and potential to optimize therapy outcomes. Unlike some prescription options, 3-AD does not suppress the body’s natural hormone production and may help reduce the frequency of injections while keeping hematocrit stable.
Conclusion
3-AD is a practical, science-backed way to enhance TRT outcomes naturally. With bloodwork-backed efficacy, hematocrit stability, and improved energy and strength, it offers men a reliable tool to maximize the benefits of testosterone therapy safely.
