New guy on TRT

So I first began my TRT treatment with primebody ( I have yet to take any of their meds). I had my blood work done with them, and then I found Henry meds a few days later. The price with Henry was better, so I decided to get a second opinion from Henry meds. I can honestly say the customer service was better with Henry meds. The turn over waiting on my blood work and shipping speeds were faster, so I started injections following their protocols. Even my consultation with the DR felt much more in depth and she explained everything very carefully. The Dr with Henry Meds prescribed Testosterone .75 once weekly. Primebody prescribed testosterone .5 twice weekly and gonadorelin .5 twice weekly with an Anastrozole pill every other week. Henry meds are also cheaper by $40 monthly. Does anyone have any experience with the other meds? I spoke with a customer service member with Henry and they do not offer gonadorelin but will prescribe an estrogen blocker if needed. Should I consider the gonadorelin? My wife doesn't want any more children (she claims). If I ever needed to come off testosterone would taking gonadorelin now help me then?

Gonadorelin was the go to replacement for the now ban on compounded hCG. The Gonadorelin won't do anything for men who have secondary hypogonadism, which is stimulate the pituitary gland.

If you have primary hypogonadism, that's a possibility.

Anyone offering gonadorelin to men with secondary hypogonadism is either dishonest, trying to recoup a loss in revenue due banned compounded hCG or is ignorant.

Look, I stopped TRT in 2019 after 3 years, restarted my HPTA in 4.5 weeks, went back on TRT for another 4 years, stopped TRT again, restarted my HPTA in 1 week!

So a total of 7 years on TRT, 8 month break in-between, restarted my HPTA is fast order.

No drugs, no PCT, just stopped cold turkey, which was 3 weeks ago.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
