So I decided to come off clomid (25mg eod) and will be starting an injection protocol in about a months time once the clomid clears out. It was my second stint with clomid, both times it brought my levels up, but I didnt feel any different. And when Im not on clomid, my LH is testing between 1-2 every time, and my total test is in the 300s.
Im only 23, so I know some of you might be thinking Im crazy for doing this, but I am doing it on a trial basis. My doctor agreed to let me go on a real TRT protocol, get it dialed in, and if at that point I dont feel better, than we will go back to the clomid.
My quality of life right now is literally zero, so I have nothing to lose. I know alot of people dont get benefits from clomid, so maybe Im in that group, or maybe T isnt my issue, but I wont know until I try. I have struggled very very badly with depression for almost a year now. I keep it to myself, I go about my business with a smile on my face and I didnt just give up. I am trying, so Im not doing this out of being a weak drama queen. I tried very hard, I tried different anti depressants. They all made it worse. Also, my joints are so cracky/popping and weak I cant be as active as I want to be.
When you can't feel joy, life is the utmost struggle. Im hoping I can regain my emotions, I have a great life around me, I just wish I could be a part of it again, and I hope TRT can get me there.
My main concern is that Im going to lose faith too soon if I dont feel a change in a few weeks. So I was hoping guys could let me know how long it took for them to come out of depression (if you had depression as a low T symptom).
I plan to start with 100mg a week with HCG 250 2 days a week. Or should I start with just T and add HCG after first set of blood work?
I really hope this is the answer for me.
Wish me luck! I will check back with blood work.
