I have had to go off TRT several times and I dont recommend doing it the way I did because it was more or less cold turkey. I mostly experienced physical weekness, but also some moodiness along with decreased labido. The symptems I experienced came on very gradually and even after 6 weeks I...

Thanks guys for the responses. Actually, my hematocrit jumped to 60, that was the test done at the Red Cross, so thats why I quit cold turkey. I did not want to have a heart attack. Thank you for your recommendation do danger and play. And for the recommendations not to stop and start. Wise...

If I can deal with it, which I can and have after being on and off TRT for 3 years, is stopping and restarting T shots a common way to handle high hematacrit? Like a mini blast and cruise? How much are theraputic phlebotomies if my doc prescribes such? (if blood donations are not enough)...

Thanks everyone for the advice. Thanks for the link Nelson. The urologist did not take a sample of my seminal fluid for examination, only a urine sample. I am in the process of locating some different medical options in my local area to help me through this due to everyone's advice in this...

Yes, my bad, thanks for pointing that out. 1.5cc every 2 weeks

Hi guys, thanks for your posts. Here is what blood work I do have. I can not find my original blood work....I believe my total T was around 400 - also, oxymeter while sleeping showed mild sleep apnea so I have been on cpap for just over a year. Here is blood work from over a year ago, ( my...

Thanks for the help. Not sure my doc is too up to snuff on the TRT from what I have gleaned here and other reputable sources. But she is very enthousiastic about it and she has never questioned me about any of my symptoms, she totally takes me at my word. I think she would eat up available info.

ARE YOU EATING MORE OR TAKING A MEDICATION BESIDES TESTOSTERONE? Yes, I believe the caffeine intake must have curbed my appetite and I am eating more, or at least for a while I was. I take 60 mg of simvistatin for high cholesterol 0.4 mg generic Flomax for enlarged prostate also, recently...

Hi, I am a 54 year old male. My Doc put me on TRT about a year and a half ago and it has improved libido, energy, mood and weight. After several months my free T, Total T, and bio availability increased to the high side of the lab report range, but over time have decreased to, the mid range...
