I got on testosterone therapy in February and the effects were unnoticeable for about 2 weeks. Then my libido exploded. After getting my bloodwork done (after starting therapy)...I was told my reading was too high and my doctor lowered the dosage. The original dosage was 100mg 2x per week. Ive had it lowered from 100 to 90 to 80 in the last 4 months. The symptoms I went to the doctor for in the first place have returned.
My original reading (before testosterone) was 299. After 5 weeks of therapy it was 1239. The difference was exceptionally noticeable. I felt great. The doctor lowered to 90mg 2x a week. Libido went down.
My testosterone level was still too high after another 3 months (1190). The doctor lowered to 80mg 2x a week. I have not had a reading since but my libido is non-existent as it was before and all the original symptoms have returned.
My bloodwork has been excellent in all other measurements except hermatocrit. The doctor offered a script on HCG and I am now taking that with testosterone. Its been less than a week on HCG but I feel no different. Should I continue with HCG or would my lowered dosage testosterone injections be the culprit?
