46 yo on hormone replacement due to a low test level
Hello
46 yo 165 lb 5 11, about 14% body fat 1 year ago.
Got a shot of test enanthate 400 mg IM at the Urologists office today.
My testost level was low for age, about 300, and, well, I haven't
exactly had much interest in sex or exercise lately. I had been
working out until June 06. But my weight never hit 180. Maybe
I was working out too hard. Because I have always been thin to
average in size, this never bothered me. I guess, after working
out, on and off for 15 years, I only expected to add about 10 lbs
of muscle, loose 1/2 '' at the waist, and add some definition.
At 46, I go to the gym to keep in shape, and hopefully avoid the cardiologist.
The urologist wants me to switch to the skin gel you use daily in about
3 weeks, I think it is called testim, 5mg per day. It is some type of
testosterone. He will recheck a bunch of labs in about 6 weeks.
My Q for the forum, if I posted to the right place is this -
--I am not on the HRT to be a bulk demon in the gym, but will I get
bigger than I was in past, if I hit the gym again for New Years, on
PHYSIOLOGIC doses of testosterone? I wouldn't mind being a little bigger
and stronger. But I don't want to have a change of personality, tiny testicles,
bad acne, nor titties. I went to the guy just to feel "normal" again.
SO, HELLO FROM THE BIG EASY - NEW ORLEANS
COME VISIT
Thanx and I hope I have not offended anybody.
