I don't know where to begin. Well, I'll begin by welcoming you to Excelmale, we're glad you're here. That said, you are totally out of control. Initiating TRT with an insanely high dose of testosterone, a very high dose of HCG, and a dose of Anastrozole that would be appropriate if you were a woman dealing with breast cancer. On top of that, you have made significant protocol changes on the basis of how you feel after less than a month of therapy. It is no wonder you feel miserable.


There are certain hallmarks of a successful protocol. One injects smaller doses of testosterone on a more frequent basis over the course of a week. One only takes an AI if labs and symptoms call for it, and one doesn't use excessive amounts of HCG. Once in place, you wait four to six weeks with no changes before testing.


A good starting protocol is 50 - 60 mp of testosterone every 3.5 days accompanied by HCG twice a week. If your estradiol on the sensitive test is not elevated there is no reason in the world to take Anastrozole. It's unlikely that you have done anything to your immune system, as you suggest, you have, however, ridden into hormone hell.


What you need is a more modest, realistic protocol and a bit of patience. Even more patience is needed now for your system to recover with a good protocol in place.


Yes, post labs. Screenshots or type them in; please include reference ranges.


Finally, consider a new doctor who understands the basics of androgen replacement. You'll be OK...but it may take a bit of time.
