[QUOTE="paco, post: 6238, member: 37"] Following is an update on my treatment. I had an appt. with Dr. Lipshultz yesterday after 5 ½ weeks on 1 tube Testim per day with 1,500 IUs HCG once per week. I told the doc that I was not feeling much improvement in energy, mood or libido. I had a few intermittent good days, but I was having more days where my mood and energy level was down or suddenly crashed. My low libido remained unchanged. I was offered several options, including increasing the dosage of the gel and/or the HCG. However, Dr. Lipshultz strongly recommended that if I truly want to start feeling better – soon – that I go straight to injections. Also, he advised me to switch to 500 IUs of HCG three times a week rather than 1,500 IUs once per week. (Apparently, he believes there is little difference between those two dosing schedules.) Yesterday I had my first shot (in my quad, lateral side of my leg) of 1cc testosterone cypionate at 200 mg/ml. I am prescribed the same dose once weekly together with HCG 500 IUs three times per week. In addition, I conceded to taking 12.5 mg clomid once daily, as Dr Lipshultz seems to believe that will help to preserve my fertility while on testosterone. (My experience with clomid tells me this dose has little positive or negative effect on me subjectively, but it does seem to help with natural production of testosterone.) Dr. Lipshultz emphatically stated he “guaranteed” that on this regimen I will be feeling better in four weeks. For the first time in a long time since staring this journey to treat my low testosterone, I feel rightfully hopeful. I will keep the group posted. :D [/QUOTE]
