    TRT & wanting to have children in the future

    Hey everyone. I am 26 yrs old and started TRT last year. My total test levels were like 190. I have been taking cycles of test cyp 100mg/week and HCG 500iu 2ce/week. Brought my levels up to around 650-700. I did 3 months on, 1 month off with pct because I didn't want to damage my testies. Stopped the test about 1 month ago and did the hcg 1000 iu 2ce 1st week, 500 iu 2nd a week since. My sex drive is 0, tired, you know the drill.

    My question is I am going to go back on the TRT but I am worried that all this messing with my body will shut down my testies and I will not be able to have children. Any thoughts? What steps should I take to keep my levels normal and still have ability to have kids later in life.

    Is there a way to repare the low T problem so I do not have to take T? Thanks

    Um, there is no cycling or PCT on TRT. What you are doing is not considered TRT. Are you under the care of a Dr. for this? No offense, but it doesnt sound like you're very familiar with the subject matter at hand. Suggest you start to educate yourself & locate a competent Doctor to treat you. Maybe some others can chime in?

    There is a good amount of knowledge here, but my recommendation is to see a doctor. In this case, I would start with a fertility doctor if that is your primary concern.

    "Cycling" low doses of steroids isn't TRT (as stated above), and probably not good for you. You basically did a 12 week 100mg/week cycle. I know some TRT docs will have people cycle on and off Test, but you would take HCG the whole time to keep your body's natural production going.

    That's what I did. I took hcg the whole time in hopes that when coming off my body would continue to produce natually. The doc that originally wrote the order was kinda a quack, and I did the "pct", call it pct but pretty much just stopped the test and upped the hcg to try and not use the test anymore. Thanks for the input and I will see a endo asap. Thanks
