[QUOTE="DAbears, post: 257155, member: 45603"] Hello, I am 35 175lbs 5’11 and have been on TRT for 2 years. I have been trying to find my sweet spot and get dialed in the majority of the 2 years. I work out 6 days a week and eat very healthy etc…My current issues are: Back acne Oily face Low libido Testes and penis always feel cold and have a shrunk look when flaccid Also a loss of sensitivity during intercourse. No erection issues however. Have a hard time putting on muscle still as well Random facial flushing in the afternoon where It gets red and hot Current protocol-30MG MWF for a total of 90MG a week. I have been as high as 150MG a week but that made my acne and oily skin worse without much help in the other areas so i backed down again. I have tried once a week, twice a week all felt the same with no resolution to symptoms. Below are my current labs taken last week. I was shocked to see my E2 was in range as all the research and reddit talk i see is my issues are most likely related to high E2 but its within range. I was also shocked at how low my Free T is. Granted this is my trough levels but from what i gather Free T levels are more important than total T. My SHBG seems to be right around average so not sure if injecting frequency needs to be more or less? I have ordered HCG thats on its way. From research this could help with my libido and sensitivity issues but I also read it could make my acne worse, thoughts on adding HCG? I have also made a app with Defy for the end of the month to see what they say about it all but hoping for some guidance until then…Any advice on what I can do to enhance my numbers and symptoms would be greatly appreciated!
