HCG mono will shut down the pituitary just like regular TRT does, so natural LH and FSH production will stop. Then you need take into account that HCG is not exactly the same as LH and does not activate LH receptors in the identical way...
You had the same reaction to NDT that I did. I switched to a T4 only med and had much better results. The trick is to try and find a T4 med that works for your GI tract. There can be a wide variation in results depending on the composition (inactive ingredients) of the medication. There is even...
If your energy levels and motivation are good as you state in your first post then I really doubt thyroid has much if anything to do with your libido issue. Hypothyroidism can lead to low libido because it causes you to have low energy, low mood, poor sleep etc. but low libido in isolation...
Going back into the archives I can see that Dr. Mariano posted this in the 2006-2007 time frame, but it is reference to the effect of TRT on dopamine not the AR. Keep in mind he is saying that this may be possible, it certainly doesn't happen in all men.
"Dopamine is one neurotransmitter that...
I just gave one example. If you go back through the T forums starting from about 10 years ago, or maybe it has been longer, especially when Dr. Mariano was active on the forums, this topic came up quite a bit. There is still no resolution to the debate except that some guys are still reporting...
My experience exactly. But I also backed myself into a psychological corner where it was driving me nuts that I had such good labs on paper and didn't feel a thing. So I stopped TRT just to find out if I would feel anything, result is my total T is down to 180ng/dL and I can't say I feel much...
Maybe, maybe not. I quit cold turkey about 6 weeks ago. My labs just came back with a total T of 180ng/dL. To be honest I don't felt much different in anyway since coming off, I'm sleeping slightly better and I'm not getting flush and feeling hot in the afternoons like I was on TRT, so 2...
Seems to be a lot of guys reporting that TRT loses effectiveness after a few years. See this thread for example.
tell me if your experience has been the same
I skipped years 1-3 and ended up straight in year 4. Just got my labs back 6 weeks off of TRT, cold turkey no PCT, total T is 180ng/dL, Free T is 19pg/mL. Honestly I feel better, maybe just because I'm not having to deal with the psychological cluster**** that was trying to dial in TRT.
Maybe...
I was 6 years on TRT and felt nothing the whole time. 12 weeks ago I tapered my dose to 40mg/wk for 6 weeks, felt no different, 6 weeks ago I stopped entirely, and feel no different. I'm going to go for labs the end of this week, I am hoping to be back where I started at about 250 total T.
I do...
How old are you? For older guys, over 50 or so, poor sleep with levels over 700 seems to be fairly common. So you can try dropping your dose a bit.
You can also try dropping the DHEA and pregnenolone unless you are convinced they actually help you sleep. DHEA made it almost impossible for me...
From the study:
Total AMS (aging males symptoms) scores at 4, 12, and 24 weeks after GL treatments significantly decreased. The results of sub-analysis of AMS, including psycho-
logical, physical, and sexual factors also significantly improved after GL treatments. No severe
adverse reactions or...
