    Weening off of TRT

    Do you think that is my only option? I am sure these transdermals are doing more harm then good I might try and get some test results that are really low once I'm off (binge drink and stay up all night before the test) to push me into the medically low area (only a couple of points). I just...

    Weening off of TRT

    Hi guys Just got back from my latest visit with my endo. Basically this year I have been on transdermal testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) (patches and gels) since about May. I have had mixed results but in short my weight is down from 95 to 88 and my grades are much higher. The problem...

    21 - low test/LH - Can't Find Help in Australia

    Wow mate that's horrible I have levels way higher then that and have found treatment. Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is your best bet I reckon but good luck finding that in Aus, I'm about to ween off testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) because of the side effects I have got and there is...

    3 weeks of improvement then crash (Various Transdermals)

    I will quickly outline my problem before I run through my treatment: I had a vericocelle embolized a few years ago but had suffered depression, sexual problems and sleeping trouble (23yo) and I asked my doctor to do a testosterone test. At this point I had already tried the 'natural' ways of...

    Androgel stopped working after 2 wks, ED set in, switched to injections and ED is...

    I get headaches and chapped lips too!! My endo is hating on injections though because she thinks it will shut down my HPA more than transdermals...

    Clomid for HRT

    That would be awesome. I'll let you know, I think I would like to try something like that even if she does prescribe me testosterone injections. She might be on-board with a restart anyway, but it's unlikely. Australia is pretty behind on this, apparently being outside reference ranges for a...

    Clomid for HRT

    There is a study which links HCG with leydigg cell repair that I read but it is old. I am seeing a new endo tmrw, apparently she is the best. Thanks for the tip on libido, I haven't really had any libido change so far on transdermals, but the ED side of things has certainly decreased.

    Clomid for HRT

    Hi guys I recently started HRT with my doctors approval as I had a vericoccele that prompted my testosterone to go down over the last few years. I have not had great success with the testosterone as my doc won't prescribe injections, only transdermal and my estrogen has spiked a bit, and...

    Ways to lower oestrogen without AIs

    Hi I currently am looking for ways to get my oestrogen down without AIs, I eventually want to go on them but at this point can't as my doctor thinks my levels are ok. I am on a 10% cream, 0.5ml a day. Will taking half in the morning and half at night help? I already take zinc. Again looking...

    Young men with low-T. Success stories? Concerns?

    Hey I had almost exactly the same thing, but I was on much stronger stuff. I had really high estrogen and if you are a bit overweight it might be something to look into. I have since cut back my dosage but still have some of the symptoms, I am hoping to get on an estrogen blocker of some kind...

    Fairly new to TRT, a few lasting symptoms.

    Yeah I might look at getting an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) through other means... I only drink occasionally and I eat a clean diet. Mainly meat and veg no sugar flour soy or legumes. My gp might give me one but I doubt it!

    Fairly new to TRT, a few lasting symptoms.

    Unfortunately there are no gps and most of the specialists are those anti aging doctors which is what i see ATM. My guy is good as far as anti aging doctors go but terrible compared to some of the us stuff I have read about. I am going to see my gp soon and hopefully he can help but he is scared...

    Fairly new to TRT, a few lasting symptoms.

    Hi about 12 months ago I started to read about the symptoms of low testosterone, and seeing as I'd had an operation on my balls (vericocele) I thought there might be a correlation between my depression/labido problems and weight gain and my testosterone levels. Anyway I got tested by my gp I...
