Don't want my testicles to shrivel

Your boys are very well useless at this point lol, but if fertility is not important to you then it's of little-to-arguable consequence. The testes do provide other functions than simply sperm production, but we cannot fully restore testes function (as of now) when someone goes on TRT.

There are options to make them fuller, such as HCG. But HCG itself is hit or miss as to how it makes people feel. After a year, though, I would think your testes size has pretty much stabilized.

An AI will do nothing for testes size on TRT.

So can testes become functional again if we go off trt?
And if so is there a procedure to going off it?

Stabilized after one year? If true, that's good news. I'm one year into treatment and no sign of shrinkage. Treated with pellets only.

While I respect the contributions of HRT in our forum I am going to take a different position here; HCG is not just about keeping your testicles "fuller".

First and foremost, read the sticky on HCG at the top of the forum as it will tell you all you need to know.

HCG is an LH analog; meaning that it act the same way physiologically as LH and therefore the testes will biologically respond accordingly.

HCG, by many practitioners, is considered a neuro-hormone and has many befits beyond just keeping the testes functioning properly.

Read the sticky and do some additional reading; especially the papers published by Dr. John Crisler on HCG and you will learn why this peptide is critical to a complete TRT protocol.
