[QUOTE="maxrebo, post: 130554, member: 27746"] I weigh 250lbs @ 5'6, down from 300lbs. At my highest weight had a TT between 250ng/dl and 320ng/dl. I'm now up to 380ng/dl. My SHBG increased as well from 22 to 29. However, I've been noticing my symptoms getting worse as I've lost weight. For one, I'm a more depressed, apathetic and fatigued than I was before but also I've been having more issues with ED and libido as well as penile sensitivity. I'm guessing that even though my TT is a bit higher, because my SHBG is higher my FT is lower now which is causing these issues. Also my e2 dropped from the weight loss from ~36pg/ml to around 21pg/ml - though with the non-sensitive test. I would like to give TRT a try. I'm in Germany so my main options are Nebido (1000mg undecanoate every 8-12 weeks) or gels. Given my weight I would probably prefer the gels so my E2 doesn't spike as it probably would with the massive dose of the Nebido. However from what I read, with gels there can be issues with bad absorption and possibly increased DHT conversion. Also I could try to see if my uro would be willing to split up the Nebido dose - maybe 250mg every 3 weeks? Any recommendations? [/QUOTE]
