Update I am off TRT (prescribed at least) For MEPS question #49 (49) Taking any medications (If so, list reason in Item 2b.) My answer is now (NO) But, for question #72 (72) Taken medication, drugs, or any substance to improve attention, behavior, or physical performance (2)(1)(6) Does...

Thanks bro. I am also from Florida. What you stated is pretty much exactly what I am trying to do. As far as deployment, I have no problem if I do. My only issue is if I deploy for really long periods of time is will I be able to get my meds. I know once enlisted I really have no choice in the...

Never heard of that before, but that sounds like a plan!

I really appreciate that.

Good advise. Ive never met or knew anyone in the Air Force. I always assumed everyone chose the army cause it was easier. I will look more into that. Another option I was playing with was the Coast Guards. They have the same benefits as the Army, yet with no chance of being deployed overseas.

You are not the first one to ask me that lol. Right now its the only option I have since I cannot afford to go back to school. They will also pay off my current school loans. My entire family gets full benefits as well.

Yea, I already spoke to a recruiter. Basically they only want the best now a days cause of the limited spots. Simple things can get someone dq. Im also 33 so I my chances are a lot tougher.

I understand that risk. If I have to then so be it. But in my case im going in as an engineer. I have my Associates and im going for my BS in engineering. I understand that even though its not likely, I could still be deployed. But I guess im willing to take that risk. I have a few family...

You make an excellent point. Trust me, I thought about all of this. It is scary, but sometimes you have to just jump in the water to learn to swim. I have experimented with this in the past. I once came off a cycle and tested for 900 2 months later. My doctor told me to skip a few sessions...

You are right about that. They are really downsizing. I already contacted the recruiter and was told that any medication could get you dq. Some recruiters would let it pass, but I already have one negative on me which is that im 33 so letting things slide would be more difficult.

Thanks for that post. Really glad to know I can come off whenever I like. I was a bit nervous about calling my doctor. Im only going for the reserves so I will not be deployed. As far as getting back on TRT, I may or may not do that. I lost a lot of weight and I believe having the extra pounds...

Hello. I have been on TRT for about a year and a half now after testing at 190 testosterone. I am currently going to enlist in the Army and there standards require you are not on any medication. I wanted to know what would be the best way to tell my doctor to take me off. I only need to be off...

Ahh... I get an idea of what you are saying. So that would explain why the underarm ones have to be taken daily compared to the weekly injections. Makes plenty of sense. I knew I would get the answer here. You guys are truly the best. Thanks bro!

Hello. I searched everywhere I could not find the answer. Anyhow, im on TRT using Test Cypionate. My Doc and everywhere I read says it takes 4-6 weeks to see results but its fully in your blood stream within 48 hours. My question is why does it take 4+ weeks to "work" if its in your blood...

Thanks for the extra advise guys. I have never had my BF measured before. I guess now would be a good time. Since you both mentioned Bodpod I googled it. I found a local place here that charges $40 for the first time for Bodpod. I may just go get it done to see where I really stand.
