    It doesnt really work that way. You had low T to begin with. By taking Test injections, you're further shutting down your natural test production. The longer you do this, the more difficult it will become to ever recover and produce enough test to be in the normal range again.

    So either I live with low T or I use a steroid? Is it possible my T will continue to drop anyways (without using)?

    Is there something I should take instead of Test Cyp? I always thought deca-durabolin was the way to go, but not sure if they prescribe that for Low T or not.

    BTW they also put me on natural-throid (armor) because my thyroid is crap too.

    Combined is this a good stuff for body building or are the dosages too low?

    You'll have the test levels of a healthy young man. You're not going to get freaky huge.
    Deca is good for anabolism, but that's about it. It can't fulfill all the androgenic functions of test (nothing else can).
    And yes, your test levels will slowly decline without TRT. This happens to everyone, especially if you are already in need of TRT.

    We've got a great HRT section on this site, which is where I do most of my camping. I'm 43 and on HRT as well.

    My suggestion (besides visiting us at the HRT forum)
    -Run BW after 6 weeks and see where you're at. Your doctor should be looking at all the testosterone values, estradiol, RBC, PSA, etc. (basically a full panel).
    -Be aware that your estradiol (E2) could possibly rise due to the "T" converting to "E". You should know your numbers going in, then see where they're at in 6 weeks. Be prepared to have some Anastrozole or something similar on hand.
    -It is also normal for the testicles to start shrinking when on TRT, which in my case also led to some soreness. Ask your doc about HCG. A little HCG goes along way my friend!
    -Add some B12 to your injections ... Great stuff, read up on it. Plus, it's a good way to get all the "T" out of the syringe.

    When they ran BW, did they check your LH/FSH. Curious with those numbers and if they've made a determination if you're 'Primary' or 'Secondary'.

    Good luck
