I've been diagnosed with low t for the past 2 years. I finally saw someone who'd help. They put me on 100IU daily of HCG. Anyway I was feeling so helpless and down that the day before I spoke with this Dr, I took 150mg of test cyp.

Now over the last couple of days I've been feeling much better and have loads of energy. Could this be the test? I'm scheduled for f/u blood work soon.

I have enough test left for 4-5 more weeks. It was from a previous Dr but never used it. Should I continue the test+hcg?
 
That could work, but what happens when you run out of Test Cyp? Will your new doctor be willing to prescribe T and HCG?

If not, I would look for a good TRT specialist like Prime Body or Defy Medical, both sponsors of this forum. You need a doc that understands TRT and that wont cost you an arm and a leg as they say.
 
I'm early 30's. My mood seems to be crashing now...I haven't taken anymore T. I've been taking the hcg at 120IU ED. What could be causing me to go back down? Also, I'm noticing my penis isn't as 'solid' anymore...estrogen?

YOu can't approach this as a I don't feel good today so I'll take this, or not take that....recipe for disaster...you don't feel good, right? See what I'm getting at. I suggest you take CoastWatcher's advice.

In a nutshell...you don't know what you're doing, and your doctor doesn't know what you're doing. Not a good combo.

You are in desperate need of a good doctor that understands TRT. You can find a doctor like that at Defy Medical. At least get a consult...that way Dr. Saya or Dr. Crisler can look at your labs, medical history, and any other pertinent information, then come up with a plan that makes sense. What you're doing right now is ridiculous. You'll end up doing yourself more harm than good. Please heed this advice.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
