Hello all,
This is going to be my first post and it's a doozy so bare with me. When I was 16, yes, SIXTEEN, I took M-drol. I took it for 4 weeks with a liver cleaner, but I didn't properly run a PCT. I bought Nolvadex, used it for about 3-4 days and started seeing EXTREME acne breakouts EVERYWHERE, so I stopped. Yes, I know, I was young and naive but there is more. Then a little after I turned 18 I realized I had low testosterone. I really felt the symptoms severely so after research I decided to buy a testosterone booster, Formadrol. I took this for a month and then decided I would get blood work. I talked to my doctor (never actually telling him that I took a PH or a TB) and I was scheduled for a testosterone check. My test came back at around 420 (this was April, a day after I stopped Formadrol). Then, in August I really... REALLY, felt the symptoms. Second blood test I hit an all-time low of 220. I was prescribed Androgel but I didn't want to start TRT at my age, so I met with an endocrinologist, explained everything, and she told me to workout more seriously with heavier weights. After about 3 months (November) I was in the low 500's range. Then early June of this year I was in the mid 300's range. I took 4 weeks of working out off due to academics and I received a phone call saying my testosterone is now in the mid 600's range. I would love to post everything like my prolactin levels, LH, FSH, free testosterone - but my results are currently being mailed to me. I am beyond confused with all these results... I have little to no libido, I literally can't remember the last time I had a morning erection, and I have patchy facial hair. My erections aren't as hard as I remember from years ago. I have thalassemia so I was directed to take a prenatal vitamin (for the folic acid) and I did for a week before my last blood test. My endocrinologist and I discussed Clomid as an option if this past test came back in the 300's range. To be honest, I want to run an HPTA restart with Clomid and Arimidex, but I'm not sure about a lot of things. My results have fluctuated so constantly and I'm so confused. I figured I'd post here to get some feedback. What do you guys think? I still feel like I have low testosterone. I nap a lot, I'm always tired, I'm not really motivated. My prolactin was a little high too, and I think I did get some slight gynecomastia from the M-drol. I'm about 19 and a half right now and truly want to get back to normal. Any advice is appreciated, and thank you if you took the time to read this.
