[QUOTE="Simbarn, post: 237773, member: 44021"] I understand. If that testosterone was legitimate and it is only relatively recent that you have DC the higher amounts of weekly T injections, it may take some time for your body to adjust and find a level of homeostasis again with regard to issues created by excess T. It is my opinion that if levels of T have been supraphysiologic for some time, this can cause testosterone sensitivity issues for a considerable period afterwards, not to mention other imbalances with other hormones and neurotransmitters. It is very good that your doctor has lowered the dose to 100 mg. It may be that you need even less than this, to function sexually better than you have. As a young man, is your doctor or yourself considering hCG at some point to avoid testicular atrophy and replace some of the very important effects of LH? I would most definitely try a lower dose of Tadalafil. It should hopefully be the case that you will need only a small dose at your age if any at all once your hormone replacement is optimised. The problem with testosterone replacement and erectile function is that if T levels are in excess or out of balance, this can play havoc with the inhibitory mechanisms of erectile function. These are the mechanisms that keep your penis in a flaccid state 95% of the time. These are very powerful mechanisms and quite sensitive to alterations in hormone levels. The pathways that generate an erection can have a hard time overcoming the excessive activity of these inhibitory signals, which results in unreliable erectile function. All our hormones concerned with sexual function, play a part in erectile function, gonadotropins included. The loss of these due to TRT, can also cause issues with ED for some men, mostly due to a loss of sexual sensitivity in the genitals themselves. The high amounts of testosterone you had been on and only recently DC, may have been altering the balance of your sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which control erectile function. This takes time to find some normality again. IMO even TRT can cause this to occur, when T levels are only slightly elevated as I mention above. Many men say they experience anxiety, which I feel is part of this. It is quite possible that your body is still in this state. As a young man in your twenties, are you absolutely sure you need to be on TRT? Were you experiencing these sexual issues when you were not on any form of hormone replacement? You mention in your first post "I was just a guy in his twenties wanting help for stuff that I was very self conscious about." What were your low T symptoms? [/QUOTE]
