So long story short, I've been on HRT for over a year now. First just Testosterone Cypionate then HCG Monotherapy. I've been with Defy since August, and have been really happy with the results. We've made one protocol change so far and this is my current protocol:
-30mg Test Cyp EOD
-500iu HCG EOD
-35mcg T3 ED
I'm finally getting to the point where I feel mostly normal. Energy is good, no more random crushing fatigue, mood is decent, my body seems a lot more robust and heals quickly, good orgasms. The one problem I've had since I was 18(currently 27), and has been worse since starting TRT, would by my ED. I am basically incapable of having sex without cialis, viagra or trimix. Trimix is my go to because I response poorly to PDE-5 inhibitors. Before TRT I definitely had ED, but could still have sex naturally for 10-15 minutes most of the time, and my libido was much higher. I'm considering getting off of TRT after another 6 months just to get back to this level of functionality.
I'm getting to the point where I'm laying out a plan to move on to exploring organic issues, and have two Urologist appointments scheduled. I'm open to all options at this point, whether it be venous ligation, ganeswave therapy, priapus shot, and stem cell therapy. I'll work my way down the list and am willing to spend every penny I have, and sell everything I own to get where I want to be.
Now these are my most recent labs on my old protocol:
(note SHBG is usually around 25)
-40mg Test Cyp EOD
-500iu HCG EOD
-20mcg T3 ED
Just looking for any advice, opinions really. I think I'm on the right track, but I'm open to suggestions.
One side note, I mentioned this to Dr. Saya, but since starting TRT/HRT it feels as if my dopamine reward system is blunted. I no longer feel a lot of excitement, or feel a sense of accomplishment like when I get a big paycheck or complete a project. It's almost as if my emotions are flat-lined. This is not something that I've ever experienced before TRT.
