I've been on trt for about 9 months and been doing pretty well but I have some of the following hypothyroid symptoms:
lethargy/brain fog
brittle nails
depression
ED even though I've been taking 5mg Cialis daily and sub par libido
Trouble losing that LAST 10lbs after losing 10lbs even though I was on a 500 calorie deficit (I've given up and am now eating around my maintenance)
I just got some extra thyroid tests done through Defy, I'd appreciate some help with what these numbers mean:
TSH 2.34 (0.45-4.5) my TSH was 3.5 about 3 months ago
T4 free 1.07 (.82-1.77)
Iodine 32.4 (40-92)
T3 free 2.9 (2.0-4.4)
As far as my TRT protocol I'm on 140mg of test cyp, 1000 iu HCG and 0.25 Anast split into 2 doses a week which puts my TT at 750, E2 at 35 and free test at 24. When i started TRT i was on the same protocol and had a TT of around 1250 and felt quite a bit better (I figured this was maybe just the honeymoon phase). my dose was reduced to 128mg a week and it made my TT drop to around 750 and the dose was raised back to 140mg and yielding my current results (750)
Any advice is appreciated
