Testosterone Replacement finding the right method.

[Robert Huskinson]

I've just had a run of 200mg test a week for 4 months.

I ran a PCT to try and come off and what a bad idea it was. Two weeks of Tamoxifen, clomid, HCG, pointless. I've gotten so sick, picked up every illness going (I work with a lot of people) and finally now I've given in, stopped weight-training (which I DIDN'T want to do as I was battling to keep my earned muscle) as I was just getting weaker and weaker (just like when low low carb dieting), tried changing training to higher reps less intensity and finally went back onto my gel.


As I will more than likely be on T for the rest of my life to feel normal/well after Orchitis brought on by Mumps it is just pointless trying to come off after a cycle of injections.

It was still even a pretty low dose but with replacing my T for the last year I thought it would be beneficial to at least TRY and come off?

Oh what a stupid idea.

After having the injections of both nebido and doing my own at home it's safe to say the gel (I'm using 50mg of Testogel) is absolutely poor.

Not a Q, just experience.

I'm sorry you went through that, but am puzzled. The key word in the phrase testosterone replacement therapy is "replacement". You are restoring a hormone, a critical hormone, your body needs to function properly. Coming off therapy makes no sense unless there is a medically indicated reason. Are you self-directing your protocol?

You need a good doctor trained in TRT, someone who will do all the proper testing. You could also have a consultation with Nelson, to help you set your goals in TRT.

Yes, I would consider a specialist as opposed to just going your own route.....
I personally use PrimeBody and have been very happy with the results.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Had a run? Not following you here. If you're on TRT, it's a life long commitment. You don't cycle on and off every couple of months.

What exactly are you trying to achieve here?

It was still even a pretty low dose but with replacing my T for the last year I thought it would be beneficial to at least TRY and come off?

Again, not following you here. This makes no sense.

Please don't tell me that you are under the care of a doctor, and he is doing this to you. That would be hard to stomach, but we've seen plenty of horrendous protocols from PCPs, Urologists, and Endos here.

Do yourself a huge favor, and get educated on TRT. Read everything you can about it (Dr. Crisler's book would be a good place to start). Then call Defy Medical, and seek counsel from medical professionals that know what they're doing, and have the TRT knowledge to help you. All you're doing right now is hurting yourself, and suffering needlessly.
