    Are there people that get on TRT and have no or very few side effects?

    Thanks, yes i wont be touching anything until I get more blood work and see the cardiologist. One cardiologist thinks it's genetics. This are the result of a test done before the diet, I lost 20 lbs since then. I suspect that it's a combination of them all. I'll get tested next week week again...

    Are there people that get on TRT and have no or very few side effects?

    That's exactly what I want, couple of shots a week and move on. And yes I guess it is very superficial assumption because I am basing it on a small minority.

    Are there people that get on TRT and have no or very few side effects?

    Yes I read about the honeymoon. In my last test my total was 294 which seems low but still within range. My endo told me that if I was an 8 cylinder car I was running on just 1, then again he has a business to run. Like I said I made it this far without it, I much rather not do it, specially...

    Are there people that get on TRT and have no or very few side effects?

    Hi Vince, thank you for replying. It doesn't affect your blood or are you taking ancillary medication to prevent any issues?

    Support natural T instead of replacing?

    For what I read hcg works temporarily. I believe that it's actually worse because it might suppress you natural production of LH (don't quote me on that) maybe including clomid, leap frog it might be better 1 or 2 weeks on hcg them 1 or 2 weeks on hcg. I'm not am expert on this just my shallow...

    Support natural T instead of replacing?

    Hi, I find this thread very interesting. It's what I'm looking for as well. I dont want to shut myself down. What about cycling for 3 months switching 1 week 1 shot of 200 or 250 hcg and the next week 2 to 3 times a week a small dose of enclomiphene? Almost as a booster. Another option...

    Got off TRT . How does my bloodwork look?

    That's my concern as well if got on test, supply chain issues. Maybe I shouldn't be concerned but I'm also in canada so if supply chain is an issue in the states here could be worse. We are decades behind already when it comes to trt. I spoke to a friend that has been on it for 8 years and he...

    Does depression from low testosterone feel different from "regular" depression?

    I honestly don't feel much of a difference with dhea, I been taking it for years, I actually stopped now. I tried pregnenolone but for whatever reason it makes me more depressed. I tried it several times at different times and it's always the same thing.

    Does depression from low testosterone feel different from "regular" depression?

    Thank you so much for your reply. It does give me hope but at the same time I know that trt might not be all the help I need unless i try it.
