[QUOTE="osirisrisen, post: 238806, member: 3489"] Some things to note (So i have my plan documented for my own sake): 1. Genetic testing shows low SERT, Slow COMT (T/T), and low MAOA-A activity - all of these lead to anxiety states, which is my primary issue 2. Taking propecia 20 years ago MAY have lead to decreased allopreg, which is also the start of my panic attacks - I don’t think I’m a full on PFS guy These two issues seem to point to a strong response (anxiety wise) to androgens. This would also explain why I’ve had feeling moments of great success on TRT when taking either Zoloft or Prozac. Erections returned, joy for live increased, rumination stopped. Updated Plan (in order): 1. Trial Progesterone 20mg at night to see effects on mood, anxiety, etc. 2. If ineffective, return to low dose SSRI (Lexapro 2.5mg, or Sertraline 12.5mg, or Prozac 5mg) - These have to be sorted out based on conflicts between SERT, COMT, and MAOA-A issues 3. Once feeling stable, initiative moderate dose of TRT via either Nasal Gel or Xyosted 75mg SQ weekly 4. If all is going well and libido/erection issues persist, trial cream on thigh days 1 and 14 Thanks for the help everyone. [/QUOTE]
