Its been a year and a week since my last shot of T, i was doing 90 mgs per week. I felt good on T, no doubt but was tired of using a drug and then constantly worrying about side effects. I was doing mild steroid cyles for about 14 years and my T levels never seemed to come back so i started using T for 6 months per year at 90 mgs and no steroids. I did this for about 10 years and my T levels never recovered fully.
This year, i decided to stay off for a full year and i actually feel normal. I think it takes a long time for your brain to re adjust, not just the hpta. Im starting to wake up with erections amd notice my libido as well as energy is getting better.
For me, i guess i never went completely off long enough. I am not using clomid or hcg, nothing !
I am refraining from any blood work at the moment since i am strating to feel good. If i get a somewhat low reading, it may have a mental effect on me which may cause me to jump on despite feeling better.
For now, i am waiting it out and i feel good. I have always heard one needed to stay off for at least a full year, maybe longer, i just never had the patience to do it. I kept saying “ im wasting valuable time, what if i never recover”? This time i maintained some focus and discipline and it seems to be paying off. I work out with weights 4x per week and do cardio. I also try and stay away from heavy weight, that can result in injury although i didnt lose that much strength.
