[QUOTE="JohnTaylorHK, post: 178618, member: 33105"] I had this also, and for me it was pretty hard to diagnose. I take 3mg melatonin every evening around 7PM, and it helps. What I found was that this is a hormonal thing (duh!) and that regular meal-times, regular sleeping times, moderate exercise, no alcohol (easy for me as I am teetotal) was the key. I sleep when I'm tired, often taking an hour or so in the afternoon if I feel a bit sleepy. I have been slammed here for "Blastin' 'n Cruisin'" (sounds like something from Dukes of Hazzard) but I would recommend 3 months on, three months off for your TRT. This is to give your HPGA time to resume it's natural course and levels, and ensure it doesn't shut down completely. You will soon know the right times for you to resume TRT, and are better able to gauge the effects on a cyclic basis. It provides a great opportunity to experiment, as IMVHO we are all different and no one can say that what works for them will work for you. One thing I see running through the threads on here is that there are often multiple medical issues which may have different reactions to the medications you may try. I recommend ensuing your nutrition is spot on, e.g. You get at least twice the RDA of everything. I just finished reading "Vitamin K2 and the Calcium Paradox" by Kate Rheaume Bleue which has pointed out another possible gap in my nutrition, and again this is an ongoing process. Namaste. [/QUOTE]
