First thanks for everyone posting. I've already learned a great deal by reading the forum. My problem began a couple years ago. I went into a pretty bad depression. I worked a lot (I guess as a way to avoid my problems). I ate a lot of bad food. I never worked out or got any exercise.
My sex drive went down. I have limited morning wood now, and my erections are no where near where they should be. If I get them at all. I am 28 years old.
I had a moment of clarity when I became very sick. I got the flu, but had to go to work anyway. Most of the day I was miserable, but then I felt an incredible surge. I felt a 100% better. I felt strong. I felt confident. I could think straight. I had a raging libido that day. All of a sudden things made sense. I think my body was being stressed so much, that it released a surge of testosterone in order to cope.
With this knowledge I knew what my problem was. I needed to restore my T.
I've cleaned up my diet. I work out now. I feel a little better. But we cannot try to transform ourselves in a bubble. Other issues are impeding my attempts to fix myself naturally. Right now is very difficult for me to devote enough time to "fix" myself. So I have been having limited results. I think in order to get over my hump, I will need to supplement myself with hormones.
Right now I just want to understand what is wrong with me a little bit better. I will get tested and see a doctor when I can. But in the mean time please help me figure out what the main problem is. I know I have a problem because I am average in weight, but I am carrying a lot of fat in my belly and breast area. My arms and legs are trim, but I know my body shape reflects a hormonal imbalance. Does this mean that I have to little testosterone? Or does this mean that I have to much estrogen?
