[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 61895, member: 2624"] Was told my issues were either depression or anxiety. Was told I was dealing with the death of people close to me. Had to beg for a testosterone level to be checked - this all went on for at least three years of acute suffering. I realize now that my levels started declining about four years before that. I had been losing interest in things, and saw a sharp decline in sexual interest, but wondered if it was advancing age. I didn't push for a diagnosis for far too long. I had osteopenia, bone loss, due to low estradiol, and - to this day - am reminded of that when I walk. I had become an old man. Topical testosterone was an absolute bust in my case. It only dried up what little natural production my body still was capable of (all exogenous testosterone does that, no surprise), without raising my levels to a therapeutic range. The inept doctor kept telling me to up the dose...every morning I coated my shoulder with gel and felt no better. I know I was an old man. Skip ahead, I found my current doctor, verified I knew what she was doing here on EM and through consultations in the US, and within seven months began feeling better than I had in years. I do feel good, very good. I inject 16mg of testosterone every morning, have supported that with HCG, and never needed Anastrozole to manage my estradiol (daily, small injections dealt with that challenge). Consistent erectile function was the last thing to be restored, and I do take daily Cialis, but I'm happy with how I feel in that regard. I take a few supplements (COQ10, NAC, Berberine, Vitamin D). I beleive that that for most men who have confirmed levels of low testosterone, it is possible to find renewed health and happiness via TRT. I admit that not all who try TRT find success. Most who don't are undone by awful, doomed-to-fail protocols. Some, though, simply don't, even with restored levels, feel better. ERO, a good friend here on Excelmale is a patient of one of the leading TRT doctors in the States, and is frustrated by lack of progress. For others, it gives you back a life. [/QUOTE]
