[QUOTE="hva, post: 63870, member: 15049"] So last Saturday I was a greasy mess. I haven't had so much oil on my face since I was a teenager. I even had to pop a whitehead. I've noticed some acne showing up in the usual places like along the crease of my nose and forehead. Fortunately this has subsided a bit in the last couple of days but my skin just feels "age appropriate" now, for lack of a better term. I've always had very oily skin and this is a family trait. I had problems with acne until I was in my early 30's. Before I had my cycling incident I was starting to lose my hair in the normal MPB areas. My hair was thinning at a rate to where I should be mostly bald on top by now. Before I ever thought about testosterone I noticed this thinning had stopped and my hair was becoming more dry and brittle. I always had very oily hair and needed to wash it every morning. It had become so dry I was considering using conditioner; unthinkable in the past. So it would appear this lack of normal sebum production, cessation of hair thinning, and a host of other symptoms were due to the lack of testosterone. If I'm reading things correctly the body converts testosterone to DHT which is responsible for sebum production as well as male pattern baldness. To begin this week I think I've ended my honeymoon period and things are just returning to normal for me. My moods are even, I'm able to concentrate on my job, which had suffered greatly over the past four years, and I'm finding I have the ability once again to not give a shit about small things. My mind does not dwell on issues that I cannot control and the mental fog, confusion, and constant fatigue have lifted. Honestly, I feel like I've come out of a four year coma. Up until my accident I followed a very predicable pattern of heightened aggression for a day or two followed by a mellowing and calmness. This, I believe, was my mental response to the normal hormonal cycle and feedback working as nature intended. Post accident, I began a sliding decent of similar to a bearish stock chart with lower highs and lower lows. In the last year or two my highs were only as good as my former lows, and my lows were becoming a state of despair. Like a bullish stock chart, I'm making higher highs and higher lows now. [/QUOTE]
