I keep coming back to this thread. Now been on 100 mg, IM, Test E for three months. Libido is there most days; sometimes quite strong, sometimes moderate, but present in my mind and body. However, zero improvement in erectile function. Rare nocturnal erections, no morning wood. If my libido is strong and I stimulate myself, I get an impressive, short lived erection. MyTT: 1064. FT: 225. E2(ultrasensitive/Quest): 54. Reintroducing anastrazole. I don't know what dose or if I'll do daily, EOD or weekly.

[QUOTE="MIP1950, post: 215348, member: 42988"] I keep coming back to this thread. Now been on 100 mg, IM, Test E for three months. Libido is there most days; sometimes quite strong, sometimes moderate, but present in my mind and body. However, zero improvement in erectile function. Rare nocturnal erections, no morning wood. If my libido is strong and I stimulate myself, I get an impressive, short lived erection. MyTT: 1064. FT: 225. E2(ultrasensitive/Quest): 54. Reintroducing anastrazole. I don't know what dose or if I'll do daily, EOD or weekly. [/QUOTE]
