[QUOTE="trtguest, post: 72063, member: 15769"] Hi Guys, I am 37 yrs old and diagnosed with primary hypogonadism. My blood work shows my free testosterone level are 44 pg/ml (normal range: 60-166pg/ml). My LH is 23 mIU/mL (normal range: 1.2-12.0mIU/mL). My endo has suggested me to do TRT. From symptoms perspective, i am experiencing brain fog and lack of energy (especially around afternoon) which sometimes make harder to complete my day to day tasks. I don't have any lbido or ED issues. Couple of questions 1. How long generally it takes for your hormone system(fertility & testosterone) to completely shut down after being on TRT? 2. After how long, you are "totally dependent" on TRT? If i do a test/trial for let say a month, will i be able to come off it? 3. If let say i start TRT & later in life (probably 5 years or so) i decide to come off it. Will i feel how i feel now or will it be worse? 4. My doctor won't be prescribing HCG with it but i want to retain fertility and my testicular size. Once on TRT, my FSH & LH will start to drop but does it drop all the way to 0? if i take let say low dosage of testosterone per week, shouldn't it just augment my natural testosterone supply or i am oversimplifying it? 5. How long after starting TRT people start seeing testicular atrophy? [/QUOTE]
