Hi guys, I'm on nebido 1000 injection now every 8 weeks, I'm 10 weeks in, during week one my non existent erections came back with a bang and I was over the moon, but they have waned a bit, now I still get erections on stimulation but never spontaneous ones, also I have put on weight, I was hoping to lose as before trt I was 3 stone overweight now I'm nearly close to 4, is this normal to put weight on, and will it come off again ?
Is it still early days ?
Can I expect better erections
Can I expect weight loss

My mood has picked up and I feel happier
But I still ache a little all over like I'm an old man haha

Any advice :)
Thanks guys
 
Has your appetite increased, my did when I first started TRT. Then my appetite went back to normal and so did my weight.
 
Need to see blood work could be anything.

Need to understand what E2 looks like.

I am not a big fan of Nebido to be honest...much better on twice weekly injections of Test Cyp.
 
I have read about guys using Nebido and for them, it only worked well when their doc switched them up to a shot every 6 weeks and started checking their E2 levels. That is all second hand info, of course.

Nebido is just one big bell curve in serum concentration levels between injections...not how our bodies function normally and it carries shitty side effects as noted.
 
Hi all
No appetite same ?
Ya nebido is all that's available in Ireland, Nelson previously told me nebido every 8 weeks is great so I'm confident.
I will asky endo switch to every y weeks tho and have my bloods done, I'll post here eventually
Thanks for info :)

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.
