I seem to remember reading something about the state of hanging testicles after starting TRT, but I can't remember exactly what it was right now.


I'm 53 days in and it does feel like my testicles are sitting higher and closer to my body than they did before TRT. But I also feel like they have shrunk (despite the fact I'm on two injections of HCG 500iU per week) so both combined are now a little bigger than one of them used to be on its own.


I'm not worried about them coming up to camp out inside me.  But I do notice they couldn't be any closer for the first hour or so after my daily workout.


Also my left one seems to like to stay closer than my right.  Probably too much info on my testes, but since you brought it up...

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.
