[QUOTE="Golfboy307, post: 176571, member: 39462"] You were close to my hormone numbers and age when it hit me. I was in the 350-450 range, but had higher SHBG so lower free T (around 8 or so). I had all of your symptoms, plus some ED. I was pretty miserable, despite lots of exercise, clean diet etc. Lets put it this way: at 45, barring a miracle, these numbers are NOT GOING TO GET BETTER, ONLY WORSE AS YOU AGE. As Vince mentioned, you don't want to rush into TRT but for many guys it is a fantastic option. It is a commitment and will require tweaking. I am on Test Cyp only (no HCG or AI) and have found a groove with my current protocol. If you decide to take the plunge: find a good doctor that is more than just a cash hungry T mill. This includes: some urologists, other providers like Defy, Body Logic (I am with them) Prime Body, etc. Shop around. Find a provider that cares about your overall health. Do a full thyroid panel (your TSH is creeping up there). Hope that helps. Been on TRT for 5 years and am turning 53. Wish I would have started even earlier. [/QUOTE]
