[QUOTE="calm--, post: 161431, member: 38716"] Hi, I need advice on how to stop TRT. I've read a couple posts but still not sure what to do. I've only been on it for 4 months. I'm 42. I've been working with dr Saya. Should I stop cold-turkey? Should I follow defy's protocol from here? "HCG 300-400iu daily X 14 days, FOLLOWED by Clomid 25mg daily X 28 days (6 week cumulative regimen)." [URL='https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/coming-off-trt-defy-hpta-reset-protocol.8275/']Coming off TRT- Defy HPTA Reset Protocol[/URL] I've emailed defy as well so hopefully I can some get some advice from them. My protocol, 2x/week : Testosterone cypionate 70 mg HCG 400 IU After 3.5 months, change to 3x/week : Testosterone cypionate 40 mg HCG 270 IU I'm also attaching my labs after 3 months. Dr Saya said the numbers are actually pretty good, the testosterone is just a bit too high (1255 ng/dl). FT 45.78 ng/dl, Estradiol 37 pg/ml, SHBG 31.93 nmol/L, DHT 125 ng/dl. These are my symptoms before TRT : brain fog, depression, anxiety, irritability, restless, very easily stressed-out, difficulty making simple decisions, over-thinking, insomnia, frequent urination, light sensitivity, crashing after meal, crashing after exercise. After 4 months on TRT, no improvement. Couple of better days where I feel slightly better mood and less anxiety, that's it. Most of my days are probably worst; probably more brain fog, depressed, unmotivated than before TRT. Also feel more tired and sleepy during the day, I've been taking more nap, but it's harder for me to fall asleep at night. Good libido, stronger erection and probably increased penis size though, which is fun, but it's just not my main concern now. [/QUOTE]
