TRT for Life???

[baja212]

Hi everyone, I would like to know why are you guys on TRT? Are you Primary or Secondary Hypogonadism? Or is it Androgen Induced Hypogoandism, like myself. My story is of one of ignorance and negligence to PCT. In the past I would finish my cycle and just fight through it until I started up again. Then finally after I turned 40 the "crash" was more severe. My levels would climb at a snalls pace, and subsequently my Primary Care Physician put me on TRT. And of course, I bit on it, and took it hook-line and sinker. I said "shit, get Test perscribed for a $5 co-pay, that's for me!!" I finally come to the realization that TRT only puts a "Band-Aid" on the signs and symptoms of Hypogonadism, and doesn't alleviate the need for TRT. I think its time to shit-can my Primary Care Physician in favor of a Endocrinologist. Further, you have to find the right Endo. One who is willing to think outside the box, one with a progressive philosphy in restoring your natural levels by using HCG, Novladex and of course Clomid.

Now, I'm my own worst enemy because summer is near I would like to do one more "light" cycle, before finally throwing in the towel. I have to admit I'm a very fickle person (LOL). Does anyone share the same experience as me. Did the AAS cause permanent supression to your HPTA? Is it too late for one more cycle? Regards

wuts the big deal from doing one injection once a week...

if you can restore thats great but wont you decline to less than optimal levels again as u continue to age...

trt is so as to not age as rapidly...

and ppl do cycles on trt ALL THE TIME...and no need to worry about pct because we're always on test

Actually, my view is quite different. TRT allows my body to function as it did when I was in my early 20's. Somewhere around 40, I started going through a lot of changes that I just couldn't understand. I felt depressed, got anxiety attacks, no libido, etc. It took my primary doctor several years to run my "T" levels and discover that I had a low score. This is when my life turned back a page. TRT puts the control back in your hands again to enjoy life the way you used to. For me, the "Band-Aid" has actually been removed and wound is healed.

BTW, for me it is just plain old secondary Hypogonadism. I think my body just said it was time to start shutting down around 40. Thanks to TRT, a good doc, and the members of this site, I am convinced that the party is has just begun!

Being on TRT has greatly changed my life. I no longer fall asleep at 7pm. I recover alot quicker from the gym. Sex life has improved greatly. Libido is strong. I am sorry BAJA, No HCG, NOVA,CLOMID for me. I wish u the best of luck though.

Just wondering how old you are. I"m always finding it harder to recover this last time especially. Maybe I should just bang out a 1200mgs/ test 800mg Deca cycle for 20 weeks, rule the universe for a while and then know youll be on TRT forever. Makes one think

ALPEN if you are asking my age i am 42. TRT 200mgs per wk. I have been powerlifting for 27yrs with my dad who is 70yrs young and on TRT for the last 10yrs. TRT will def help you recover from workouts quicker.

Actually I was asking Baja, but Pete do you get your blood done regularly ?
Hows your RBC's Hemoglobin Cholesterol and BP? Test(all ASS) will thicken your blood, make your heart pump harder and can raise cholesterol. Just wondering

Alpen those are the issues i am dealing with right now. High Rbc, Hemoglobin, hemocrotic & pressure. I donated blood 3 times in the past month and that has seem to bring my numbers in the normal range. I am also having my TRT dose lowered.

How are you donating three times on a month - going to different cities? Or did you get an order for it?

One on my own, two by script.
