    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    When my libido was at its best, I was on about 150 mg test cyp, 250iu hcg 2x week and some arimidex.. I actually think it was best when I wasnt using so much adex.. Awful drug. In hindsight and with my experiences during pct and after - I truly believe arimidex was the reason I couldnt make my...

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    Ah, that`s a bit over where i was pre trt. Did not feel good ^^ I had some success with several day fasting every now and then during and after pct.. definitely made me feel much better. When you get down to a low level of T, it`s hard to metabolize carbohydrates effectively it seems.. I always...

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    With fluctuating e2 it`s really hard to get good results, especially when it comes to libido and anxiety.. that`s my experience anyways. Is it a possibility your hcg is too high? your shbg could possibly get a little higher if you go to 3 times a week with the test. That might make e2 a little...

    Ok, I got my bloodwork now. Blood was taken on the 12.12.2018 That`s almost 2 months after I stopped the serms. Testosterone - 26,5 nmol/l !! that`s 764 ng/dl E2 - 0,11 nmol/l 0,00 - 0.20 nmol/l LH - 2,9 IU/l 1,7 - 8,6 IU/l FSH - 0,9...

    What protocol are you on, and do you know if you are primary or secondary hypogonadism? In my case when I was on, I had good libido with some protocols, and bad with others.. What`s your e2? That could be causing your anxiety.

    Understandable. What protocol are you starting? I have thought about it myself, but I will try for another few months to make this work.

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    Hey, sorry to hear you`re having a difficult time.. it`s been about 2 months off clomid for me aswell. Been both some good times and some bad ones. I have faced the same realization as I did prior to starting trt.. If I`m gonna feel good, I have to really be strict with my diet. If I eat too...

    So your testicles don`t respond to hcg at all? Were you diagnosed as primary hypogonadal prior to starting trt? If that`s the case, going off is not a good option for you I`m afraid. I was on 100 iu ed hcg prior to going off. 3 days after last prop shot, I increased it to 200iu ed for the...

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    Not far from my experience. I don`t have much experience with DIM, but the little I have, it doesnt really do very much for me. I feel the precursor to DIM (Indole 3 Carbinole) does more, but it`s hard to say. Right now I`m using only the I3C and Calcium D-Glucarate for e2 control. I think...

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    My experience when I got off now, I didnt reach a bottom. There was some sort of down and up in the transitioning between hcg and nolva/clomid, but it was very minor. However, I did combine the pct with a few 72hour fasts. That really helped me. Anxiety is mostly gone when you dont eat, and the...

    Coming off Clomid after restart

    I have the same experience with the boron. Raging boners in the morning, but not really very high libido through the day. I do think that is a good start though. Homeostasis and normalization of receptor sensitivite should take alot more than a few weeks/a month.

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    Yeah I can see your point. I was thinking the same the last time I tried to go off. But didnt meet my hopes.. felt like utter garbage after 14-16 days or so, and started questioning why I was going off.. was I gonna feel that way forever etc.. =p Not easy to think clear with both bottomed out...

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    I havent tried the really high dose T, but I always felt better on the lower doses. I would say 75mg e/w and 100iu hcg ed, no ai was what I felt best on. But I didnt feel amazing, so figured i could do an attempt at going off.

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    I wouldnt recommend quitting cold turkey.. for most people, the emotional sides will be really nasty. I had a really smooth coming off when I did it the way I explained in the original post.

    Quitting TRT after 1,5 years. There is hope

    In some countries - self prescribing is the only option. Have had both ups and downs, mostly due to the difficulty controlling e2, and cortisol issues that stem from that. `as needed` means exactly that. Looking forward to maximizing life without having to think about these things. More blood...

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.
