[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 29847, member: 2624"] The relationship a patient has with his doctor is the single most important variable, I believe, in a successful TRT protocol. If you are not working with a knowledgeable doctor who treats you as a partner in your health care, you are working against your own success. As for being patient, it is fundamental. By starting on exogenous testosterone, you knocked out you body's ability to produce testosterone (absent a restart protocol); how in the world did you think you no longer needed TRT? By lowering your dose to 40mg/week you tanked your testosterone, and were, more than likely, profoundly hypogonadal. Now you are chasing shadows, worrying that your estradiol is too high/too low, worrying about single instances when your libido didn't drive itself as you hoped. It is a losing game you are playing. Success comes when the multiple aspects of hormone replacement have an opportunity to work-and that takes time. You need a doctor who will provide you with an efficient protocol, and you need to stick to it, no changes, for at least four weeks. No matter what. [/QUOTE]
