Young guy low T

[Birdman]

I am a 26 year old male who had his testosterone levels tested in the low 200's ng/dl. I struggled in school and fell into deep depression in my late teens. I prescribed on various anti-depressants and adderall. Last year I found out the anti-depressants and the adderall were lowering my testosterone levels and made the choice to be off them for good. I went with Defymedical and was prescribed clomid due to my age. If it works I will be thrilled to not have to inject myself every week for the rest of my life. I keep a journal on how I feel everyday on the clomid to see if I am getting the benefits of elevated testosterone or not.

My goal this year is to be completely off the adderall for good.

Welcome!

Don't forget to do some kind of resistance work, lifting, band training, or even bodyweight stuff. There's no reason not to. Don't rely entirely on TRT to get you where you want to be, it's a little more complicated than that. TRT will be the glue that holds a lot of things together. Look also at your diet, sleep, drinking and other drug use. Pay attention to your thinking, and motivation. Think positive and be positive. Build your body and your mind as well.

No excuses, do it! You'll be fine.

We're glad you joined us here at EM. As Chris noted, your choice of Defy for treatment was a wise one. One bit of advice: be patient. Almost all of us have learned that rebalancing our hormones takes a bit of time. Stay the course...and best of luck.

Is it proven that adderall lowers T levels? 20 y/o here with T levels in low 300s and use adderall.
