On TRT for 3 yrs, off 3 mos. Nipples Long-any way to fix?

[saluki71]

Hello everyone, I was on TRT for about 3 years, and things went well. I have been off completely for the last 3 months. I was on 100mg T Cyp E6D, 250 IU HCG E3D, .5 adex E3D. This protocol had my levels dialed in and was feeling good. The only side effect were that my nips itched. My E2 levles were always around baseline levels, but did fluctuate a little. My prolactin levels were also within range.
Several months after starting I noticed my nips were itchy, but nothing too uncomfortable. Over time, I started to notice that my nipples (Just the 'stem') were getting longer. No bumps, no soreness, no lumps - so I dont think gyno is there. During puberty I did suffer from sore and sensitive nips, so I am definitely have some sensitivity to estrogen.
So, my question is whether or not I can do anything about it. It is more of a cosmetic issue I believe, but a nuisance nonetheless. Ive heard maybe Nolva, clomid, letrozole ..... HELP PLEASE!!!!

I'm trying hard "not" to picture this.

But anyway, you are now off of TRT?

Why?
What protocol did you use to restart?
How are your levels now?

Nips can just plain be sensitive. Mine are sensitive and my E usually runs low. We are all different. If you think it's somehow related to a form of gyno then Raloxifene is your first choice followed by Nolavdex. Do a search as there have been a few great threads recently on those two items by Jimmylinkedup and Austinite. Honestly I'd think they'll calm down on their own in time.

Im comletely off of trt now. The protocol that I used pretty consistently was the one in my first post, and I quit cold turkey. I was injecting IM into my thigh, and never liked it, so I started injecting subq into the area around my abdomen. I could never take more than a 15 IU shot because I would bruise and get a nice lump behind the injection site. I just got tired of sticking myself. I have not had my levels tested recently but am feeling pretty good.
I really dont think it's gyno, it's just that my nips are perky, and stand out a good 1/8" - 3/16" from my aerola, which is not puffy or lumpy. Just not exactly the look I'm going for.....

I'd really just give it time and they will hopefully calm down. Your body is struggling to find balance hormonally right now. Time should help. So would some blood work.

Welcome to the forum BTW.

maybe since being off trt your e2 to t ratio is high?
btw do you feel different off trt, and do u plan to o back?

[saluki71]

I plan on getting my levels check soon. Ive had this issue for about 2 yrs or so, but it really has not bothered me until now.
Im a bit more sluggish - not as much energy, and not as lean.
I dont know yet if I will go back. Right now I have no plans to do so.
