New to the world of TRT - difficulty voiding 30 + hours after Cypionate injection??

[joslan]

I 'm new to TRT, I just turned 59 in Feb, never felt any symptoms until i would say December 2010. I decided to consult with my physician in March. The blood work showed low testosterone with a level of 299 (Quest did the lab work). Physician talked to me about TRT and recommended Testosterone Cypionate . Loading dose as 200mg it weekly injection of 100mg. I am scheduled to get blood work before my 7th injection which should be on May 25.
From memory, i think that test should be for total testosterone , free testosterone, high sensitivity estradiol for men, PSA and DHT. I had two PSA tests done and DRE before starting the treatment. My PSA level was 1.5 - it was 2.1 last year - I had bacterial prostatitis 10 months ago this might have something to do with it, i dont really know but it went down. Urologist told me my prostate seemed to be in excellent condition, barely enlarged. I was told i had mild BHP and as far as i can remember, this "condition" never affected me.

Now, here is my "problem" if i have one... Since I started TRT, three weeks ago, i usually inject myself on a Wednesday and i would say 30 + hours after injecting, i start experiencing difficulties urinating and i could last 1 1/2 day then goes away.

i must say i also feel that i might have a come back of prostatitis, not sure yet, i will consult next week Never the less, this difficulty voiding happened 30 + hours after injection after each injection.

Has anyone else ever experienced or heard of something similar? Any comments or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot guys

i've seen little to no posts regarding what you mention in 5 years of reading and posting on this site...

i, too, was told i had mild bph when i started trt...

you're probably going to get your question answered best from your doctor...i should be seeing one more often...what you state doesnt seem too concerning since you mention it being only for a day and a half...

best of luck with it...how has your trt been working? anything positive to mention?

welcome to the site
