[QUOTE="sjt23, post: 207897, member: 42664"] Hi, I would appreciate your knowledge and personal experience and insight to assist me to feel my best. I have been on T Therapy for over 20 years originally diagnosed with hypogonadism-testicular hypofunction. I am a 61 year old male. Most recently I was on 125mg Test Cypionate injections every 14 days.(crazy, yes every 2 weeks). My average levels midway between injections at day 7 were: Total T 528 Free T 16.62 Estradiol 27.6 DHEAS 49.1 but was having issues and not feeling great...issues with libido, ED....and of course testicular atrophy. [U]To re-evaluate my situation, and wanting to feel better, and get a new 2nd opinion and start with a new endo, I stopped my protocol for 4 weeks to dry out and start from scratch with comprehensive labs and evaluation.[/U] I didn't know what my labs would look like, but knew I was taking T for over 20 years, my balls have atrophied, I never tried HCG alongside for any of the benefits, and knew my libido was not great at all, have ED, and less satisfaction. [U][B]My labs came back as follows:[/B][/U] TT 24.3 (264-916) yes 24.3 Free T 2.4 (6.6-18.1) Estradiol Sensitive: less than 2.6 (8-35) SHBG 43.4 (19.3-76.4) DHEA-S 45 (48-344( LH 7.6 (1.7-8.6) FSH 11.8 (1.5-12.4) What can be said about the miniscule TT @ 24.3? On previous evaluations of diagnosis over the years, while I cannot remember exactly, my TT numbers were in the low 200's not in the 20's. Wow! So I would greatly appreciate any comments and suggestions on strategies anyone might chime in on to help in this journey to feel my best. Optimized Test Injections with or without HCG? I just switched to weekly T injections from every 2 weeks to start with, currently at only 62mg Test Cypionate injection and will at see my next labs soon. I'd like to aim for 800TT midway, but have to see the doctor's agreement. Any feedback on adding HCG to the mix for all of the proposed benefits for me at my age of 61? From your experience with using HCG along with T, what are you experiencing or know of other men in the 50's or 60's or 70's using HCG with T experiencing? Does it include feeling better, than just using T alone?. I am apt to feeling depressed at times, so anyone know or experiencing better mood on HCG and other significant proven benefits and results?
