Best way to quit TRT?

I've been on TRT for about 6 months now. I've decided to go off it for now. Since starting I've had a lot of problems. These problems may be totally, partially, or not at all related to being on TRT. I don't know. So, I currently take 100mg cypionate per week, injecting EOD subq.

What is the best way to go about quitting. Simply stop taking the T? Or use other medications to help make the process a bit easier?

Out of curiosity, what are your symptomps? I am guessing that you've tested your Total T, Free T, SHBG, Estradiol while being on TRT. Could you share it?
 
your body should restart even if you stop cold turkey. mines lh was already in middle range and fsh on high end of range 6 months off trt. but i took hcg while on last year of trt so maybe it helped

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
