Permanent shrinkage of the testes...

**Evi** · 05-23-2009, 07:28 PM

Hello, I'm not a bodybuilder but I was hoping you guys could help me. I've read tons of material and no matter what I find, all ways to shrink the testes will just end up reversing if I stopped taking them. I was hoping any of you, through all your research, know of a way to do this.

Welcome to AR

Is there a reason you want to permanently shut down your natural production of test just to shrink your nuts??

**Evi** · 05-23-2009, 08:02 PM

Yes. I'm more androgynous than male or female and it's pretty annoying. I don't really have a sex drive so girls aren't interested in me. It's okay because I'm not interested in them. I'm actually not looking to permanently shut down the testosterone , because that would be bad for cardiac health.

I'm just trying to see if there's some solution.

well with steroids , the testes shrink because they stop producing testosterone due to the exogenous compounds we use.

so, i am not sure steroids would be the answer for you. Although adding testosterone can and usually does increase your sex drive

sorry if this isn't much help

have you talked to any doctors about your issues??

Yes, they tell me it's either a phase (lol 20 years of phasing) or try to turn me into a girl.

I'll keep the thread on my bookmarks in case anyone can help me out. I looked at androcur but nothing is permanent and with no testosterone I will be a straw man.

You need to talk to a hormone therapist.I think that is your best bet.Good luck. Titanium

The testes can always bounce back with HCG therapy, I read a medical report where steorid users who were on AAS for 2-3 years straight where able to get there testes fully functional and were still fertile after 4-7 months of HCG therapy.

you need to see an ENDOCRINOLOGIST, and fast.

find a dr who isn't religious and wont push his morals onto YOUR health care.....

get your LH and FSH petuitary functions checked, testicular functions, kidney, liver, total AND free test.

i had low test level - now im on hrt, and my life is definately better on a day to day basis......

maybe you're gay? (im not being rude, but im gay..girls don't interest me either!

)

there has to be a serious reason why you're having issues....... just shutting your body off and ignoring it, could cause very serious problems down the road.

with my petuitary not working right, my dr ran MAJOR tests, he was worried about tumours causing problems with my petuitary gland......

please get a referral to an endocrinologist from your family dr....

best of luck

Phase, NO but it could be a medical condition due to low testosterone . Even if getting interested in girls is NOT your goal you should as stated get checked by a ENDOCRINOLOGIST.

Do NOT trust your normal doctor to run blood test and tell you what is wrong. I though the same thing for YEARS. yup your results are normal. FINALLY I went to a specialist and Ohhh no this level is LOW, this one is at the bottom end etc; stuff your normal doctor will NEVER look at.

Now I have a doctor for my blood work and one for the common cold. LOL

for a long time member with a high level of posts - i dont think that's really a helpful post at all....

instead of being a smart a$$, why not help those who are just seeking an honest answer?
