    Am I Shut Down?

    I take 5 grams of Androgel each day. Does this mean my body no longer produces any of its own Test?

    Most likley if you have been on it for long enough and it is supplying what your body needs. Natural production stops when the body gets enough test from the outside. Androgel didn't do a whole lot for me, but does work for some.

    I will beginning cycle which includes deca , so I want to make sure that the current andro dosage will be sufficient post-cycle without any need for PRT.

    Are you on TRT? If so you don't do PCT.

    My test was low two years ago. Ever since, I've been on Andro. Although no doctor has ever said "TRT", if taking the 5 grams of andro each day constitutes TRT, then I guess I am.

    How big/small are your balls compared to when you were 100% natural?

    I am not sure if 5 grams andro will shut you down completely. You will be shut down after the cycle, is the 5 grams enough for you to feel good? If so no PCT.

    I am on 200mgs cyp/week and I am definitely not producing any of my own.

    How is your sex drive? Mine has not been so great and I was wondering if it is because of low testosterone I have not gone to the doctor yet. I read online about androgel , is that enough to get me back to a normal test range? And will that help with my sex drive?
