So I am following up with my new doctor that I saw on Wednesday. It was 45 minute consult just to explain what was going on. Why I am seeing him, why I went on TRT. Basically I explained to him I am tired that of the ups and downs that I have been experiencing on TRT. These ups can be for a week to 3 weeks. The downs can be a month. He is doing an extensive lab panel. When testing for e2 he is Doing the ultra sensitive test. I get I am not new to this forum. But people who have read my post know my last doctor refused to do the sensitive test. My question is; and I will find out Monday obviously. But I just wanted to get yours guys opinion. Is that test really that much of a difference. Yes I have read Nelson’s article about it and everything. But it’s just idk. I’m nervous, like I’m nervous the doctor is going to say. Everything looks great, idk what to tell you. I mean it’s been rough. My old doctor changed my protocol about 10 times in a 3 year span. Even when I was feeling good, he wanted to keep me in the number range. So yeah, I guess I am just asking as well, is there hope? I mean a lot of us who are on these boards are probably on them because we have issues (maybe I am wrong) obviously there are people on this board who like to help and give feedback. But like I said I am just nervous that things won’t ever work. Like they will in a sense; but in a roller coaster way. There are times when I take a Viagra and a low dose of cialis and that won’t even help. And that should give anyone a hard on for hours. Also I have been put on an AI taking off the AI, repeat atleast 3 times. Told to start HCG then stop HCG, repeat. As crazy as this sounds there are times where I think maybe it’s just best to quit the TRT. I am only 28. I went on it for medical reasons obviously. But the highs and lows of it are just rough. Maybe finding the right doctor is the most important thing. Because the doctor I saw where I live didn’t know a lot it seemed like. But scrolling through these boards it seems like a lot of doctors don’t. But to my point I am 28. That’s peoples primes. And not going to lie when my libido goes low it puts me in a funk depressed wise. And people on here can think ‘wow this guy is a whiner or a bitcher’ idc. Because I imagine there are people on this forum or on trt in general who probably wonder the same thing. Which is, “was it worth it even going on it.”
