[QUOTE="DennisH, post: 114800, member: 18883"] I am age 59, and have been on testosterone cypionate injections for the past 6 or 7 years. I started out at 100mg/week, with increases as I aged, then decreases as my numbers increased -- apparently from getting in shape and improving my health, and possibly from taking progesterone and boron. My target total is 750. I have not been taking any HCG or aromatase inhibitors. I have not had a problem with testicular shrinkage. Here are my results from March. I was taking 120mg per week in one injection: [ATTACH=CONFIG]5391[/ATTACH] I decreased to 100mg per week spread across two injections. Now this is where I am: [ATTACH=CONFIG]5392[/ATTACH] A 20% decrease in testosterone, with no significant decrease in my levels. I am also concerned about the low FSH. My wife doesn't want testicular shrinkage, and I don't either! The estrogen is too high, and my dosage decrease did not lower that either. I am seeing the doctor this week, but I wanted to see what ya'll say. This forum was recommended by a friend who is also a member. In the meantime, I have reduced my dosage to 60 mg spread across two shots per week. My performance has actually improved. I started taking women's topical progesterone cream, about 7 mg per day, about a year ago. That did more to help my erections and preejaculate than anything since initially starting testosterone. About 6 months ago, I started taking 6 mg of boron per day. I feel that that may be what increased my natural production. Could it be that a lot of my low testosterone is caused by a simple mineral deficiency? Also note that I sprung for the sensitive estradiol test that the guys on a marriage forum I belong to rave about. The results and reference intervals are different, but both show me high-normal. So no need to spend money on that again. Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide. Dennis [/QUOTE]
