Finally Got my Full Panel...Way Low Testosterone

NOSUPERMODEL · May 23, 2016

Can anybody elaborate on the SHBG, estrogen and test results? I have no idea how they correlate. Should I start taking some HCG? My erections are not the greatest in the world still. But I also don't want to raise my estrogen by adding in the HCG. If I remember correctly being high 20's to low 30's is ideal? Overall I am feeling great, I just want the sex quality to be there. Gym, diet, energy etc.. is all on point with what I am currently doing.

I have decided to start taking 500iu of HCG twice a week to see if that helps with the testicle size and overall orgasm quality.

That's my protocol, injecting 500iu of HCG every 3 1/2 days. I really like the effect it has on my libido and full balls. I do know not everyone needs HCG, but I do believe most do better with it.

This is the first week on HCG. How long should it take to "feel" something? What is it that I should be feeling, besides fuller testicles?

Finally got in to see my doc and go over results. He upped my thyroid medicine to 75mg. Said he wanted to see if we could improve it a little more. Also wanted to drop my Test down to .75cc per week. I don't know if I will drop it. As the doc was thinking my results were after 7 days of my last shot, when in fact it was the next morning after receiving 100mg of Test the night before. I think I am okay with staying with my split dose of 200mg per week. Any opinions.

Always test immediately prior to your next testosterone injection to avoid this sort of issue. What was your lab value?

I posted my results on page 2 of this thread.

Some guys definitely "feel" HCG while others feel nothing at all - those of us that feel nothing take it because we know it is doing helpful things in the background. So in other words, you may or may not feel anything, but know that it is doing good things.
