Hello. I'm new to the forum so if this isn't the appropriate place for these questions, please let me know and I'll delete the thread.
When I was 24 my doctor only gave me a FT and TT test and TT was 250 (range ~350 -~1120) and FT was 15 (range was something like 2-30). I weighed 205, had (mild AHI ~8) sleep apnea, and was burned out after a year of ritalin (ab)use and drinking lots of caffeine throughout the day, every day.
Since then (while on trt) I've made some lifestyle changes: lost 20 pounds, exercise daily now (alternating running and weight lifting) and eat a lot more healthily.
I've had a prolactin test and that came out fine. I did discover that I had high reverse T3 (probably from chronic stress), which was causing me serious fatigue and taking sustained release T3 has mitigated that.
Currently on a cream protocol: 120mg/day with 0.1mg anastrozole compounded in the cream. Also take 250 IU hcg every other day through SQ injection.
I'd like to explore the possibility of doing a PCT/HPTA restart. My real question is, since I've reversed the sleep apnea and significantly dropped my stimulant use, I'm wondering the prospects of returning to natural testosterone and a successful restart as well as any tips you may have to offer.
