New on TRT

svaper · Apr 27, 2018

Hi,
Im new to this board and to TRT, and having some issues i hope you can help me with.
I have been really tired and feeling fatigued since starting TRT, maybe even more than i did prior to it. The strange thing is that on two or three different occasions I've been taking cialis, and i notice that the following 2-3 days I'm feeling great. Lots of energy, great mood, everything is looking bright until the next time i pin, then i start feeling tired again. Also i feel better 2-3 days after i pin than i do the same and the next day. I dont know if this makes any sence or if anyone experience the same?

My protocol is 62,5mg test e, sub q every 3,5 days, and i've been on it for 5 weeks. Not using any AI as i still haven't had any labs. (will be doing that after beeing on it for a total of 6 weeks)

The way your feeling is 100% normal as it takes 6 weeks for your blood levels to stabilize and may take several months for all symptoms to be resolved. I'm 5 weeks into a dosage increase and I feel exactly as you described the last 5 weeks, some days are good some days are not so good, a lot of ups and downs.

If you make the slightest change now you go through another 6 weeks of ups and downs. Those who don't have patience are on an endless rollercoaster ride do to constantly making changes.

Patience is the key when making any protocol change. Stay the course...

Thank you for replying. I know it takes time, but i read a lot of storys about guys feeling better almost instantly, so im actually happy with your answer. Im not planning on changing anything before i have my labs done.

About the Cialis, thats just a coincidence or is there some connection there?
