Stopping TRT for 2 months

[JimR]

I know silly stupid but curious. Been on TRT for 4 years. 47 years old. My labs were 215 before. 200 mgs a week divided by 2 shots keeps me around 800. Has anyone experimented and stopped for a couple months and see where they where they were at and how they did? If so...continue with HCG during that period? I'm not dead set on doing this but curious as I'm sure some long time TRT people here have done so at one time or another. No...I'm not going to jail.

Hello

Im doing that right now, I went off and did a PCT plan. I will have my numbers tested in a week or two. But I figure it will take a long time for my body to get back to what my base line was before TRT
(but I know it might not ever get back to those numbers as well)……

But Im not sure….. so I will probable get blood work every 4 weeks to see whats going on and post. Im stopping to see if I can stop long term. We will see-

I guess your numbers would tank, in the 2 months, then if you start again go right back up. I was tiered at times, ED, Libido issues, small amount of muscle and strength loss. Some times I felt dizzy and very light headed at the gym. But all and all other than the ED and libido - it was not bad, I expected worse. I am still dealing with libido and ED issues, I started using Cialis. I think I'm around 10 weeks off.
People say TRT is for life, My Dr. - did not explain it that way.

Also I gained some weight/fat when I went off. If you're using HCG with your TRT - I was from the beginning, that HCG really gave me a cut look. Its also said that If you're using the HCG from the get go you will rebound faster if you stop TRT.

Hope this helped, allot of knowledgeable people on this forum, look at some posts and you will find some great info from these guys

It really depends on what put you on TRT.

I was off for a week and a half. Idk if it was physical or psychological but I felt like crap toward the end. Stayed on hcg too

I've often thought about trying a re start but to tell you the truth, it has taken me a while, as in almost six months to get dialed in and feeling good. Don't know if I would want to stop and start all over again.

No worries, some states will continue TRT while in jail
