    PCT Log (27 Y/O, 3 years on TRT)

    Hi all. Have used this forum for info before, but thought I'd make a log here to document my attempt at restarting natural production. Will use nmol/L and mmol/L measurements here for total/free testosterone in the format of total/free. To convert to ng/dl, multiply these numbers by 28.85 for...

    Hcg as a restart?

    Hey guys, I’m 33 and have T in the 300-350 range with most low t symptoms. Been on a regimen of 100mg weekly for 2 months and it has helped. I don’t completely mind the thought of doing this for life but also think maybe I should try a restart to see if maybe I can produce normally after...

    Thinking of getting back on…

    Hi, I was on TRT for several years, going to the ‘low t center’ for weekly shots and about 6 mo the ago I stopped.

    Gonadorelin Usage

    I have recently decided to stop TRT. Been about 5 weeks since last used and off course my T is low. I was on about 12 week total so not sure how long before my body will kick in producing again. Would Gonadorelin speed this up? Cannot get HCG in my state. Has anyone used Gonadorlien?

    Progress coming off 6 years self TRT

    Started a new thread so someone can benefit from a google search. Here are results 6 weeks into 25mg clomiphene citrate ED as part of coming off of 6 year self administered TRT. I was hoping to have Total T and Free T be higher since LH is so high. All numbers will go down once clomid is out of...

    Post-PCT 2 months, and I still have NO libido at all. {Labs posts}

    LH cut off. It’s 3.1 (1.5-9.3 scale) I’m about 2 months post-PCT, and taking nothing at all anymore. My libido is still SO low…almost nonexistent. Not even close to how it was before I started TRT. And when I orgasm, it is still just a dribble. Not much volume to it at all. But these labs all...

    Does semen volume ever come back? I’ve been off TRT since February, and I still just have drops that come out:(

    I took HCG, HMG, and Toremifene (SERM) to restart my HPTA. I’m taking no meds at all now. All my lab works shows I recovered fully. I tested total T, free T, E2, LH, FSH, PSA, and prolactin. All my numbers came back in a good range. However, when I cum, I barely have any semen still. My gf...

    Any Benefit of taking Enclomiphene and Tamoxifen together for HPTA restart? I'm attempting an HPTA restart

    I'm attempting an HPTA restart, in the past when I used to cycle, the norm was to take Nolvadex and Clomid together. I've had pretty good success with that but I haven't done that in years. I'm seeing a lot of people suggest and clomiphene only when they decide to attempt a restart. I'm...

    Post-TRT restart not going well - how long to wait for fertility to recover before going back on T shots?

    I was diagnosed with secondary hypogonadism in my early 30s (I'm 40 now), and went on TRT around the age of 32. Pre-TRT T level was 220 (although I probably crashed it lower than it should have been by cutting all fat out my diet, but even at age 27 I think it was only 300 or so). After some...

    Do I just wait out symptoms after a restart?

    Hopefully this is the right place for this, I recently finished a restart protocol from Defy (HCG 300iu x 14 days then clomid 12.5 x 4 weeks) and being my first restart I wanted to know if what I was experiencing was normal. My test protocol was(250mg test/smaller doses daily/week + 300iu HCG +...

    HCG restart attempt.

    I've been on HCG from June 15, for an attempt to restart my own testosterone production. My trt doctor prescribed a huge amount of 5000iu 2x week. I did that first, and then spared it out to 2500iu EOD after few weeks, because of the huge 5000iu dose at once seemed to give me elevated heart rate...

    Pituitary restart while on TRT: promising initial results with GnRH plus enclomiphene

    TL;DR: Over a period of seven weeks, treatment with GnRH and enclomiphene raised LH and FSH from around 0.1 mIU/mL to about 1.0 mIU/mL, even though TRT and hCG dosing were continued. Subjective results have been encouraging. I had written previously on the subject of GnRH suppression on TRT...

    Supplement with DHEA and Pregnenolone during HPTA restart

    I am attempting a restart after a long and thoughtful discussion with my doc. I was advised to take pregnenolone and DHEA during the restart but I was under the impression that this would be suppressive to my HPTA? I always assumed supplementing those two were fine if on TRT, but suppressive if...

    Why clomid instead of nolvadex?

    Why is clomid used instead of nolvadex in a restart monotherapy protocol? From what I understand nolvadex should have similar results to clomid but with less side effects. Can you use nolvadex as a monotherapy? What am I missing?
