Could use some sage guidance. I also am talking to my Uro who supports my thoughts of coming off. The short of it is I was started TRT too early. It was to help a non existent sex life in my 6 year relationship. We tried a lot of things, counseling, etc. Had a lot of work, financial, and...

I just increased my dose from 96mg split MWF to 120mg split MWF, 3 weeks ago. Last week (starting week 2) I had a few days of fatigue and brain fog. It seems to be lifting a bit now, but since I'm still new to this, I'm curious if this can happen and will level off. My levels at the op of...

3 months in. I started at 40mg MWF. Felt good, nothing crazy good or bad. Short-lived decent honeymoon. My provider is very conservative. June 2022 - All CBC, Lipids, Thyroid, PSA, DHEA, Prolactin were good. TESTOSTERONE, TOTAL, MALES (ADULT), IA 441 250-827 ng/dL IG SEX HORMONE BINDING...

I am now 13 weeks in to TRT. Started at 120mg weekly pinning MWF. I did 6 week labs on my own from DiscountedLabs (awesome) and had an HCT of 50 then. So my doc said to donate whole blood, so I did. I also lowered my dose to 100-108 week. MWF. I just did some 12 week labs and my Ferritin...

Started TRT and just received my 6-week labs back from DLabs. My protocol has been 40mg, Mon/Wed/Fri, so 120mg weekly of Test Cyp/Prop Blend at 80/20%. I'm 45. 185lbs. Workout 4-5 days a week. About 17% BF. Diet is above average. Always been pretty healthy. Blood pressure is always great...

So I'm just over 4 weeks into starting TRT. 120mg Cyp weekly, pinned on Mon & Thu. A few things I've noticed 1) Prostate has to be somewhat enlarged. I now get up to urinate in the middle of the night and my urine stream is weaker. I did not have these issues before I started. Also, when I...

So I'm starting out TRT for the first time. The compounding pharmacy my doc uses does not have 100% Cyp, for some reason I don't understand. So they offer blends. Which could include DHEA, AI, Cyp/Prop/Eth or Cyp//Propinate. We decided to start with Test Cyp/Prop pinning 3.5 days at 100mg...

I'm doing a pre-TRT protocal to get my levels up naturally before looking at TRT options. My doc suggested a few things, one being 25mg of DHEA nightly for 4-6 weeks as my E2 and DHEA were a bit on the low side: ESTRADIOL 17 < OR = 39 pg/mL IG DHEA SULFATE 148 61-442 mcg/dL He said to take it...

I won't share all my labs, but just the ones my doc and I are looking at and his suggested protocol for your feedback. Protocol for the next 4-6 weeks B12:500-1000 mcg per day. Sublingual no later than 12pm I am experimenting first with the right kind of B12. 1000 mcg of Methyl is too much...

So I got some labs back that show the following: IRON, TOTAL 93 50-180 mcg/dL FERRITIN 93 38-380 ng/mL VITAMIN B12 391 200-1100 pg/mL IG HOMOCYSTEINE 8.8 <11.4 umol/L My wellness doc would like to see my B12 numbers increase and he suggested supplementing with B12. So I used Pure...

NOT on TRT, and my levels are in 'normal' range. But got my PSA scores and I have a family history, so was wondering if I should be concerned. I'm 45. Dad had his cut out in 2010, is 80, still cancer free. I'm looking into TRT, but don't want to pull the trigger just yet. PSA (FREE AND...

Latest labs in August were all middle range, slightly lower for my age. I turn 45 tomorrow and I feel fine, mostly, but 'things aren't what they used to be'. All my friends my age are on TRT, and some telling to do 150+ once a week. That seems extreme to me with my numbers below. My DHEA &...

I'm curious. Why did you start TRT when all your labs indicate your a middle of the range or 'normal' or 'bloods look fine/great' according to your doc. What protocol did you start on? Why? What told you to start despite having normal labs? Are you still on TRT or did you get off of...

I'm 45, feel fine, but definitely lower libido impacting my relationship of 4 years, not retaining muscle as much, belly fat harder to get rid of, a bit increased anxiety, so symptoms of "lower" T, but my labs are "normal", EXCEPT my E2 is too low for me. Optimal E2 is around 25-30 for me...

Like the title says, I'm 45 and considering a lower dose TRT to start out. My father has PCa, removed his prostate, and lost functionality, so he's impotent and has been for 10 years, but he's alive. He's 80. I'm 45 and in great health; workout, cardio, etc. Here's my labs over the last few...
