[QUOTE="tareload, post: 213794"] Just to clarify, Natesto seems to minimize negative feedback on HPTA, not minimize endogenous production of ______. Natesto (out of many other TRT options) appears to give you a reasonable opportunity to [U]maintain[/U] whatever level of endogenous HP[B]T[/B]([B]T[/B]esticular)A function you have. Especially if you are only taking once per day instead of 2 to 3x per day (quoting a knowledgeable provider who has clinical experience with Natesto). Therefore, regardless of whether you are primary or secondary hypogonadal or former TOT hobbyist, Natesto (or equivalent) should give you best shot of maintaining whatever level of upstream stuff (as [USER=38109]@Cataceous[/USER] stated) potential you've got while also allowing you to test/experiment with short bursts of exogenous Testosterone. On a personal note, I'm still slowly ratcheting down my weekly dosage of Test Cypionate (down to one 60 mg injection per week of TC) and taking about 1500 IU/week (500 IU 3X per week) of u-hCG. Last time I tried this (over a year ago) I went cold turkey for a month and that was a really dumb experiment. This time I am taking my sweet time and at some point I'll switch on the Natesto and switch off the TC and u-hCG. [I]EDIT: 2-3 weeks after I switch the TC off I may take 0.25/0.5 mg of anastrozole two to three times weekly (transition period to minimize negative feedback / provide some positive feedback on HPTA) for a few weeks.[/I] Let me know if anyone thinks this is dumb. My rate of perceived heart exertion when training hard seems to have improved dramatically and my [URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK482408/']pulse pressure[/URL] has narrowed from 55-60 down to 45-50. Upon completing 40 pushups, my heart no longer feels like it is going to jump out of my throat. Will be interesting to complete another echo in 6-12 months and see if significant remodeling can be picked up on the mild diastolic dysfunction. I'll update when I have more info. [/QUOTE]
