    shrinkage while on trt? causes?

    hey guys ive been on trt for a couple years and everythings fine but i have one issue. my penis is always in shrinkage mode, like how you get when its cold out and it shrivels up. im just always like that except for a fee times during the day where im normal. im just trying to figure out whats causing it specifically.

    im currently on .75 mgs of test cyp once a week without an ai or hcg . all my levels are fine and within range. could trt lower certain amino acids like l-arginine or even nitrous oxide that help with blood flow?

    We would need to see your most current bloodwork, I'm thinking your not completely dialed in yet. But one suggestion I have is to add a daily dose of Cialis to your protocol, you will probably like the results. I would like to hear what others say on your issue.

    My experience is the same as yours - but I'm in my sixties. I believe age has a good deal to do with this as does how long your T was low before you began on a TRT regimen. My T was low for a good 10 plus years before I began TRT. If my memory serves me, there are parts of the penis that can atrophy with non-use and lack of T- for several reasons. WebMD has a fairly clear write up on this - concerning age. Just look up penis atrophy. If you are a younger man, we'll have to wait for others to add their comments.

    My feeling is this: If you jump to action when the time is right, and everything works fine - there is no need for concern. That's my situation and I'm grateful for it. My wife and I are both on HRT and we're doing better than ever.

    And by the way, IMO being ON TRT has nothing to do with the shrinkage you describe. There are likely unrelated factors involved.

    My experience is when I am on a normal dose (100-150) a week I have erection issues even with E2 and all other suspect areas in correct numbers. I boost this to 300 a week and I am in boner city. Worked it down bit by bit and 270 is as low as I can go before losing normal erection function.

    I do not take HcG so my jewels are shrunken and I found the amount of ejaculate as a major contributing factor....just not enough ejaculate and it took weeks between hardons and such. Started taking some suppliments suggested by Austinite and upped my test dose fixed it all. It made a little blood pressure issue appear staying on that dose long term so...got a new BP script and all is fine.

    Everyone is different. TrT is not magically working perfect for everyone. We are all different. Work to get to your perfect level.

    Have you considered a regimen of low dose Cialis and Doxazosin?

    This^^. Cialis (tadalafil) is one of the single most effective supps I take. Its benefits far exceed the obvious. Have a read....

    I do take Cialis but am unfamiliar with Doxazosin. Checking it out now.

    Maybe try not using too much HCG .
    That could be desensitizing your shrimp.
    My 2 cents

    Kind regards from the Beef Department
