Low t yet good libido

[canatct]

I have been off trt since May of this year and my numbers have dwindled.

Labs from 8/16/16
Total test. 372. (348-1197)
Free T. 7.2. (7.2-24)
Sensitive e2 15.3. (8-35)

My DHEA has also been low for quite some time now.

I have a follow up with defy to discuss starting back on trt, but in the meantime can someone tell me why my libido is very good and I have zero ed problems with these numbers?
One of my main problems on trt was ed. I struggled with no hang, no morning wood, soft erections, even when libido was good.
Now that I'm off those problems are gone.

I'm glad this topic was brought up. Before I started TRT, I would never have known I had low T until I saw the numbers. I had an excessively high libido, no ED problems, etc. I started TRT because the numbers were low and after reading all the great benefits, I thought to myself, "why not".

It wasn't until I started, I then realized that even though I had a great libido, I had other low T related problems. After about a year on TRT, other people started noticing that I was calmer, easier to get along with, my thoughts were clearer and even though I didn't have ED, my erections were stronger. I was more confident, more outgoing, less depressed. I had the 3PM tiredness and that went away on TRT. I had fat accumulations on my belly and love handles that took about 2 years to go away. I had more energy, less lethargic, etc.

Did you see other benefits while you were on TRT? Maybe the ED problems were estrogen related?

Same here. My wife was surprised as was I that I had low T. I had all the other symptoms but my libido was great. Other things than T affect libido but not all people are cut from the same clothe too.

When on trt, I tried different protocols ( look for threads I started). I did use Anastrozole in small doses along with test cypionate and HCG, but never had the quality of wood on trt as I have since being off trt.
