[QUOTE="Jason Sypolt, post: 205372, member: 13328"] This topic comes up regularly. It orobaby isn’t the blood work, and it probably isn’t the meds. Think about it - the counts of some things in your blood are the same as they have been, but you feel worse, what else is there? It isn’t TRT. You have another problem other than hypogonadism. It isn’t the brand of your meds. If there wasn’t as much T in some brand then the lab work would not be the same. It’s more complicated than that but let’s keep it simple. People don’t understand how the pharmaceutical industry works and what goes into a medication before it ends up in your hands. They feel better switching brands because they got something new and their dopamine reward system is firing on all cylinders. No one posts that they have been taking the same thing for years and suddenly feel great. No, it’s “just switched to XYZ and I feel so much better” so the other brand must have something wrong with it. Or, it is your world and life around you and your state of mind. Consider this cause first. I can’t begin to tell you how difficult it is for people to admit to themselves let alone anyone else that something aside from a lab result is wrong. And it’s a shame because it robs people of so much time. Mental health often has more power over you than your physical health. [/QUOTE]
