[QUOTE="sh1973, post: 115050, member: 17540"] There's not much I haven't tried over the years as far as supplements, testing and lab work. I spent $600 on a nutritional deficiency test alone. I have no other health problems, never been overweight, don't smoke, rarely drink, eat healthy and work out regularly. Whenever I first started with Androgel 1.62 I maintained good libido for about a year or so on topicals and was forced to stop due to insurance coverage. I then went to Enanthate for a couple years then Cypionate for the last 4-5 years. I've had levels from 600ng to 1900ng and everywhere in between but have never had consistent libido. Like I said I now feel better in all aspects by dropping to 68mg per week, which puts my trough at 607ng day 7. I have SHBG levels in the 60-70 range, but high dosing DOES NOT WORK FOR ME whatsoever. anything above 1000ng is like hell for me. My libido got the worst around the five year mark and I've seen this same timeframe with other men be the time at which it seems these problems really start to appear. All in all I feel pretty well at this lower dose, but libido still is evasive even though I feel better. I've had some friends over the years that have did some hardcore anabolic cycles that have also stated after a while their libido pretty much vanishes, but after ceasing the cycle and doing a PCT their libido comes roaring back with a vengeance. It seems if a person is using HCG to possibly correct the absence of LH and FSH, that the hormonal cascade would essentially be fooled into thinking everything is in order. Obviously normal LH secretion normally happens in a pulsatile manner which I suppose could be a problem since HCG stays at a fairly stable rate. Perhaps lack of libido isn't the most common problem with TRT, but its well within the top few problems. [/QUOTE]
