    Citalopram/symptoms of low testosterone

    All the doctor's seem to do is throw tablets at me, just come back from there and ive been prescribed citalopram 20mg although i'm currently being treated for low sex drive/lack of erections with cialisis which has not seemed to have much effect over the last 4 months. They won't run any blood test's for testosterone , estrogen and prolactin although im showing symptoms of low test and high estrogen and prolactin. I can't afford to go private for the bloods to be run so i just don't know what to do. The last time i had a sex drive and erections like i should was wen i was on cycle, do i take the anti-d's or not

    Always done proper pct, i look at it as the most important part of my cycle. Are the anti-d's a good idea or are they just going to make the situation worse im thinking the second the doctor is just palming me off not to do what they should

    anti depressants are poison in my opinion and they will rob every bit of testosterone you have left! unfortunately UK is way behind on HRT, you may have a hard time finding a doc to treat you properly, but we have few members from UK and they are getting proper treatment, one of them is Marcus. hopefully he'll see this thread, I am sure he'll chime in.

    I think a big part of it is the age that they seem to think there is nothing wrong but iv'e had problems all the way from puberty, showing more from 22 up to now 24. My first cycle was done correctly followed by pct just as i had turned 22...i never used AAS any younger than that. It hop be really helpful if marcus can point me in the right direction and help me out, hope to hear from him

    for some reason I though you were in your 30s! I could swear I checked your stats and that's what I saw, weird! is that you in the avi? if so you don't look like you had problem with low testosterone . now that you mentioned your age it explains everything. this is why we keep telling young lads to stay away from AAS until they reach their maximum hormone balance potential, no AAS under 25! obviously you screwed up your system and stunt your development, and now you're paying the price. my advice to be truthful to you doc, meaning tell him about prior AAS use so he knows how to treat you. good luck.

    of course you look fine now, but a year from now as you might be shutdown you'll lose everything you've gained and will feel like an old man. you need to keep looking for a doc that is willing to help you. sorry I don't know what else I can say...
