[QUOTE="klepp0906, post: 165243, member: 22245"] yea the kidneys I figured was likely from heavy protein intake and/or the fact I had part of one lopped off due to the cancer. The doctor has yet to say anything so I kinda just filed it away. Now you have me wondering again. I only eat 1g/lb which comes out to ~180g a day. While the foolish part of me wants to say there are guys who eat WAY more, i know that has 0 to do with me. I wonder if that is having an effect, or if its something else all together. Wonder if i just read high in that area. Or maybe creatine is straining them. Still, came to talk about the feasability of ceasing trt, and if so what avenue to take OR what could possibly having almost entirely killed my ability to get erections. I will bring up the kidney markers to the doc next time i go in. I see my urologist for my annual cancer scan in february too so he'd likely know more. as for HCG, id have to switch doctors as mine told me he cant prescribe it, only a fertility type doc (or presumably endo) can. I did try to go to an endo initially but apart from barely speaking the language, she rubbed me the wrong way when she said "i dont understand why he's trying to hand you off to me when he already started you on treatment" after my GP's referral. the GP is pretty understanding but as you can imagine he's not well versed in the intricacies of secondary hormones etc. Not sure how to interpret your experience regarding AI. Are you tossing another chip in the bag for me ceasing it? Even if it puts me OOR high? Or are you saying that my initial response like yours could have been exaggerated and apart from what i imagine would be some rebound (if i stopped AI) it might actually settle in favorable territory?
