Hi everyone!
Like the title states, I'm pretty néw to TRT and everything involved with it, so I'll apologize in advance if I ask some dumb questions.
I'm 33, and for the last few years (especially since my son was born) had been steadily showing increasing symptoms of low T. I had blood test done a year ago and I don't remember my specific numbers, but I was right on the bottom edge of what was considered "normal" for my age. This obviously wasn't where I wanted to be, so I started making changes. Revamped my diet to one that's much healthier, started exercising, etc.
Now, a year later, I'm 40 lbs lighter and in much better shape, though my symptoms haven't really improved. I had another blood draw this morning, and the results are identical to last years (though now I remember the numbers).
Total T: 366
Shbg: 28.6
Free T: 9.86
To say I'm disappointed is an understatement. I'm of course just above the limit to where my insurance would cover it, and despite all the work I've put in I still haven't seen an improvement.
I'm here hoping to find some ideas or advice from everyone, and share in the stories and any experience I might gain.
Look forward to talking with everyone!
