    5 months post cold turkey bloodwork (lower total test numbers)

    Hi all, I have posted here before about my cold turkey journey after ~8 years of exogenous hormone use. I did my first set of blodwork after about 6 weeks of stopping. Just did another set of bloodwork after almost 5 months (143 days) and thought I would update. Unfortunately it looks like my...

    Cold turkey bloodwork - 6 weeks since last shot (576 ng/dl!!!)

    Copy paste from a different post: reduced orgasm intensity. reduced penis sensitivity, i could not finish during normal sex. it also just messed with my libido/erectile function after a while. sometimes they were both quite good, and sometimes one was good but the other was lacking, or...

    Cold turkey bloodwork - 6 weeks since last shot (576 ng/dl!!!)

    Yes I had significant testicular atrophy before coming off. There were times on tren etc that they disappeared almost completely. They are back now, but I think they are probably more atrophied than they would be if I never touched exogenous hormones. I'll get bloodwork again late next week...

    Cold turkey bloodwork - 6 weeks since last shot (576 ng/dl!!!)

    Before trt or before all steroid use? I was 23 when i started AAS. I cant remember how i felt. I was a hot head for sure. Before going from AAS to trt i was in a pretty shit place from covid isolation etc.

    Cold turkey bloodwork - 6 weeks since last shot (576 ng/dl!!!)

    I'll start with a bit of background. I have been on AAS/TRT for ~8 years. The first 5 or so full blown steroid use and the last 2.5/3 years on TRT. I never used hcg while on AAS and sporadically on TRT. I pposted this thread on Nov 16 looking to lower my trt dose after a off the charts FT and...

    Advice on whether or not to start TRT or look for other causes

    It's up to him. I'm just offering my opinion. He could try lower SHBG naturally. It's what I would do if i had a 900 TT. I don't think 63% positive is a glowing endorsement for TRT. I don't have access to the full text of that study. But from the bits and pieces that are available: I would...

    Advice on whether or not to start TRT or look for other causes

    I wouldnt consider trt with those numbers tbh Especially if libido/ED is one of the issues you are trying to address. Search "libido" or "ED" on this or other trt forums and you will see how many problems you are risking.

    Why do so many Quit TRT?

    My last shot was 2.5 weeks ago. Tried going really low dose and then just said fuck it amd stopped. Feel great tbh. Felt really good getting rid of all the syringes etc. My erection quality right now is better than i thought was even possible while on. Will continue to monitor

    So who is happy with TRT? Who wish they never started?

    I wish i had never started. Simply never found a protocol that worked sustainably. Reading through this thread, i see a lot of guys that seem to have found the one variable that they had to fix for their protocols to work (hcg/no hcg/ dose etc) I have gone through those phases where everything...

    Lowering dose - Bloodwork on 80mg/wk test + 500iu HCG

    Maybe its just the natural course for some people. I feel way better right now too. That free test number was really illuminating for me

    Maybe its cause im old now. But do you ever take a step back and say "is this who i want to take medical advice from" ..lol Im just playing. Its a unique journey for everyone. My labs will be in about 2 months on this protocol.

    Lowering dose - Bloodwork on 80mg/wk test + 500iu HCG

    Ive tried everything from 80 to 1.5grams with various addons lol No, i dont feel better on 240mg. I dont want to "manage" s/x. Its never sustainable. There is simply no add on thats a silver bullet in my experience. I'm also aware of buddy in the video. I dont think hes medicating low...

    Lowering dose - Bloodwork on 80mg/wk test + 500iu HCG

    I've been on AAS/TRT for ~8 years now. Outside of a small window, my libido/erectifle function/penis sensitivity has never been right. Everything else is fine. I'm more muscular than I really need to be. My mood is mostly fine and I'm very used to any swings that may happen. The small window...
