Diminished sexual function after starting TRT
I'm 69 and have been on 63mg/week TE only for 1.5 years. It helped me with what I needed it for; I had excess fatigue on exertion and didn't like the fact that I was losing muscle. I lost 35 lbs and became more muscular. Obviously I don't care about fertility, and I wasn't overly concerned if...- Melody68

Orgasm. But no feeling
Hey Vince, Cataceous implied that a loss of penile sensitivity could be the result of excess T. I've always reacted very strongly to small doses of anything, and my 63mg week of Enanthate still gets me to a slight excess of the normal upper limit of free T. I thought I read at one time that...- Melody68

Orgasm. But no feeling
Before TRT I could orgasm at least twice in a row; after TRT I could only do it once. It's a good one, but that's it till the next day (or two). I think it has something to do with a reduction of penile sensitivity.- Melody68

Can I lift hard if I have AFib?
Hey Jim, you sound like you're handling the Afib pretty well. I gather that you think like I do . . . that I don't want to get my T levels too high because that might trigger Afib and blood clots. Mid range, as you say, is smart. But I don't understand the relevance of MVC levels . . . can...- Melody68

Can I lift hard if I have AFib?
100 reps per set! I read that this afternoon and decided to try that, but only with 50 reps. I split my exercise days into pulling and pushing days. So I was doing curls, rowing, lat pull downs etc. I also work my forearms hard on those days. Anyway, I finished the high rep workout and then...- Melody68

Can I lift hard if I have AFib?
Hey brother, good to hear from you. Yeah, Covid was a b-tch, some people got lucky, some didn't. You sound like you're doing pretty well, and you're lifting some good weight. I'll be 70 next February, and I've been thinking about how I'm going to approach old(er) age. I see so many of my...- Melody68

Can I lift hard if I have AFib?
I always get great help here . . . I'm 69 and have been on TRT for 1.5 years. I love it, it helps me exercise hard and I have much less aches and pains and fatigue than I used to. During that time I went from a sloppy 250lbs to a hard 215lbs (I'm 6'3). In December last year shortly after a bad...- Melody68

Pacemaker and TRT
That's unfortunate, and I feel badly for you. I'm not a doctor, just a fellow TRT patient. Regarding the TRT, does it have to be an all or nothing proposition? It's true that we all want to have T levels at the upper part of the spectrum, but if it were me and I had to make changes, I'd rather...- Melody68

Is my ED physical, psychological or hormonal?
Hey TB, I feel badly for you, but I think you've found your way to some very bright people here on the board - hopefully they can help out. I have shades of the same concerns as you. I'm older, 69, but am in good physical shape; also on TRT. I have only a limited response to Viagra so I tried...- Melody68

Aging and Testosterone dose
Excellent question! I'm not sure of the answer but I'm sure somebody will come along that does. In the mean time you should include your age - you could be anywhere from 32 to 82 years old . . .- Melody68

Interesting injury
That side was under stress as I was one arm rowing, what to me, was a heavier weight. I think I turned my head to look at the angle of my arm, to see if I was doing the exercise right. Then I felt a combination of pain and what kind of felt like an elastic band snap. Since then it's sore...- Melody68

Interesting injury
As always you guys are terrific, thank you Phil, excelnelg and Guided. I have had an ongoing neck problem the last 6 months as a result of an unfortunate accident. Obviously this latest issue didn't help it. I'm starting to feel that, as a 69 year old, I'm spending as much time with rehab...- Melody68
