Hi everyone, I am new to this and am looking for some help. I started a test cycle based on a friends advice who wanted to help me.
I have low T level the doc thinks it's from hypogonadism my levels have been low for a very long time. In 2014 I had BW done and they told me my levels were at 6. Never had kids or a pregnancy. Around that time I was dieting and training hard in the gym with a friend and in almost 2 years training hard hitting the weights I was't able to put on much muscle and my energy levels were always very low.
I think my levels have been low since my 20"s cause this has been the case for me for a long time. My sex drive went off a cliff with my energy I was always tired my bones ached I could sleep for 20 hours a day like nothing. I found out my levels were at 6 a couple moths ago and my doc wanted to try me on more anti depressants and SSRI med's which have never helped me in the past but due to the fact that low level T symptoms present the same as depression thats what I have been treated for for many years.
Currently I am almost 34 years old 6'3 and 275 pounds. 2 Months ago I was 315 pounds or heavier which is partly why I decided to try a cycle and self medicate. My diet and nutrients are good I eat a 2000 cal diet and my fats carbs and proteins are a good ammount for what I am trying to do. Thing is I live in a small town in Canada and don't have very good doctors up here, we have no Endocronologists a couple Urologists and no Andrologists.
My doc said when I come off the way to run more tests cause they wont treat me unless they have 3 consecutive tests of my levels being that low. My thyroid function is good which is what leads the doc to think it is hypogonadism. They told me they would treat me with 1 750ml shot of Enthanate every 10 weeks and from all the research I have done this doesn't sound like a good ammount it sounds like it will spike my levels and then I will crash the last several weeks.
Currently I am taking 1 250ml shot of Enth every week and am a week in on stacking with Winni as per my friends suggestion. I have been feeling great ever since starting and have been loosing lots of weight and putting on muscle. I realize that the way I am going is most likely not sustainable and will come off everything in 4 weeks when I am done the cycle.
I am looking for some additional information to help keep me safe during this. I just started taking arimidex, my friend told me that they were not neccesary unless I started to notice negative symptoms but the more I have read the more that doesn't seem to make sense to me. Please help with any information and suggestion.
I am curious about what I should be taking with the shots. How much arimidex or novaldex if any as I was told by my friend it wasn't needed. Since I most likely have hypogonadism am I going to need pct afterwards? If I can't find a suitable doc to help me what should I aim for level wise to maintain healthy levels and keep a sex drive and energy?
I want to keep going and finish the cycle if possible then I'll stop and try find a doc here that can help me. I don't want to go back to how I was when my levels were low as my quality of life was shitty and my wife needs a partner with a sex drive, sex less then 10 times a year is not healthy for a relationship.
