[QUOTE="klepp0906, post: 189729, member: 22245"] Well like most things, we live and we learn. Too often its the hard way. Always tell the wife, if i got a "do-over" id have the world by the balls. You're brave giving it a go with no help. I've been shut down for 2.5 years straight, i shudder at the thought. At this point its more preservation of the physique ive spent a lot of years developing, cessation of the hair loss, and freeing myself from being tethered to medication. If it was a universal win without sides I'd have given up the hair, and even dealt with being slave to a pharmacy. At this point its all the bad and rarely any good so it's time. and therein lies the rub. for me at least. due to relatively high shgb (even after starting trt it only dropped to the low-mid 40s) in order to get relief from the symptoms I had I have to pump my testosterone so high my dht and psa goes with it. Off to the races with the loss of head hair, growth of back hair, and most disturbingly bph symptoms. Thats become intolerable. I considered finasteride which would undoubtedly arrest the hairloss, limit the bodyhair, and probably shrink the prostate. Problem is that further binds me to a pharmacy. Thats probably the direction id head if it werent for the finasteride side effects of libido/erectile dysfunction scaring me away completely. Basically petrified considering those were two major motivators in starting trt to begin with. [/QUOTE]
