I’m on the fence about starting TRT. A little backround about me. 31(M) at roughly 16% BF with a healthy overall lifestyle. I workout 4x per week, eat healthy for the most part, and sleep 8 hours per night. Supplements I’m currently taking are a multivitamin, vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, and fish oil. I drink occasionally, and don’t smoke. I’ve noticed over the past year, my energy levels have been lower, it’s been harder to put on muscle, lack of confidence, and my anxiety is higher than it used to be. I’ve taken a few testosterone tests, all with similar results to the below. Here is my most recent test that was taken at 7:30am.
Total Testoserone - 358 ng/dL
Free Testosterone - 57.9 pg/mL
SHBG - 25 nmol/L
What’s everyone’s thoughts on if starting TRT would be worth it? Life just seems too short to sit at the levels I’m at currently. I’m aware it’s a commitment that can come with many ups and downs, but it seems like it could really improve my quality of life. My main concern would be fertility, as I’m planning for a second kid in roughly two years. The plan would be to stop TRT 6 months prior to trying and run HCG + enclo and then hop back on after we conceive.
