Does Trestolone acetate (Ment) increase prolactin levels? My understand is that all 19 Nors increase prolactin levels but I’m not certain in this particular case.

Are you saying Trestolone acetate activates the prolactin receptor? After running testosterone e along with Trestolone acetate my lab results showed my prolactin levels were elevated and the doctor increased my cabergoline.They don't "increase" prolactin, they ARE prolactin to a certain percentage. Almost all hormones have cross receptor activity, they can activate other receptors. Estrogen even acts like testosterone and activates the AR a little bit. There is no reason to think any 19-nor doesn't act like prolactin at least a little bit, how much is the question. For deca, it has about a 20% "affinity" it's called for the prolactin receptor.

Do you think Trestolone acetate increases prolactin levels?I think you're confusing prolactin with progesterone?

Thanks for the detailed info. I went off the Trestolone acetate 2 weeks before having labs done. It should have been out of my system by then. Therefore, I think my prolactin levels were still elevated from having used the 19 nor compound.What I'm saying is, there is almost zero chance that Trestolone DOESN'T activate the prolactin receptor, it's just a question of how much.
Prolactin and progesterone often interact because of common cobinding factors, plus anything that activates one probably has a partial affinity for the other.
Your labs probably showed high prolactin because they used a bioassay/immunoassay testing method that caused the trestolone to show up as prolactin.

Yes he did, and now tries to cover it up with more bullshit instead of owning his mistake :naughty:I think you're confusing prolactin with progesterone?

Progesterone is a steroid hormone, Prolactin is a peptide hormone. Very different. Consequently, no AAS have any binding affinity whatsoever for the Prolactin receptor.
Some AAS, presumably those with a progestagenic effect, may increase prolactin levels, though not through direct interaction with the Prolactin receptor. MENT may be one of those. But given that libido problems with MENT are very rare, it can't be too much of a problem. I would have some Caber on hand but only take it if your blood work shows out of range Prolactin and/or you have libido issues (despite estrogen control) or lactate.
soma;2691591[B said:]Im pretty sure deca, tren, trestolone interact with the progesterone recepto[/B]r...which in turn increases prolactin levels. Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone receptors all accept various steroids to varying degrees. The interaction of these steroid receptors with the various steroids produce responses. In the case of the progesterone receptor interacting with trestolone(deca, tren) one of the responses is increased prolactin.
