Hello! Just thought I should say g’day and introduce myself, I’ve been lurking here a bit and have gleaned a great deal of useful info from this site (as well as Nelson’s and Jay’s books).
Long story short, I have a bit of a history of weight loss and dieting, and that has probably impacted on my T levels but I suspect they have probably always been low throughout adulthood and that has been the root cause of many mental and physical health issues.
I finally got diagnosed with low T and super high SHBG (secondary hypogonadism, cause unknown, though dieting would have impacted on levels at the time I was tested) and started on TRT about 6 weeks ago. Without this site I would have been at the mercy of my endo, who seems like a great guy but wanted to put me on creams to start with, then Sustanon (infrequently) but I was able to convince him to put me on 250mg of enanthate a fortnight, and that I should start out injecting half the vial each week. I feel as if that has been working pretty well and I’m grateful that he was willing to work with me on my preferred method instead of forcing me to go down a different path.
Moral of the story, do your research and try to find a doc who is on your side, and soak up as much info as you can, thanks to everyone who shares their knowledge here as it’s been incredibly helpful to me!
