    Definitely. I tell people this all the time in the nutrition forum, yet find it difficult to apply my own advice sometimes.

    I think my main problem is I start to get these irrational fears... like 'what if the pin isn't going in deep enough'? 'What if the test is no good (pharma grade purchased at a fvcking pharmacy, duh! Like I said... irrational). 'What if they check my levels and nothing has changed'? 'Am I just a freak case that doesn't respond to treatment'? I just need to stop being paranoid and let things happen.

    On another note - I'm wondering what to look for with regards to testicular atrophy, aside from the obvious shrinkage. That particular marker is hard for me to gauge since I see/feel my onion bag every day. I've heard of pain (of which i'm experiencing none currently), discomfort, etc. Anything else I can use to gauge whether or not this should be a present concern? I intend to start HCG either way, but would like to be as informed as possible with what's going on in my body.

They are not going to turn into raisens or a mass of useless collagen overnight

    Easy does it. Shortly you will feel the difference. Referring to TRT, not your nuts.
