4 weeks into my TRT - Left pec sore (start of gyno?)
I started my testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) 4 weeks ago on 210mg test e.
I don't have any bloating, except for puffy bags under my eyes, and that's been like that for years. No acne, maybe a small zit here or there that doesn't last long. I've felt a little euphoric 3 or 4 days of the last 4 weeks, the rest are just sort of normal. Libido seemed to increase the 3rd week, and has felt slightly stronger after the first dose of nastyzol. I guess because it lowered my eztrogen?
So far:
My first week I pinned 1ml into my quad. I did not start my Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) or my Anastrozole.
Second week, I split the dose on Monday and the other half on Friday. Still no Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) or Anastrozole
Third week, same split, .5ml monday, .5ml friday. Still no Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) or Nastyzol
Fourth week, .5ml monday - And then Tuesday was chest. I hit it hard and then immediately felt tender, sore and some pain in my left pec.
Tuesday I took my first 1mg tab of Anastrozole. No Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) yet. Wednesday the tenderness and pain was still there, and i thought I felt a tiny lump to the left of my nipple. Today, Thursday, I took a second 1mg tab of Anastrozole. The lump is still tiny, but more noticeable. Still a little tender and painful. Pec does not look bruised, or swollen at all, but my nipple has slight tingling.
Is there anything I should do in addition to taking the nastyzol?
Should I take more tomorrow?
I'm supposed to do another .5ml pin tomorrow, since it's friday. Should I hold off?
Maybe start Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) next week and continue 1mg nastyzol for a few weeks, while spacing out my test e pins?
Is it possible to start showing signs of gyno after only 3-4 weeks if I didn't include dosing of anastrozole and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) along with my test e?
Advice is appreciated. I'm going in next week to get the standard test panel bw done. But until then, it's just figuring out what my body is saying and what you guys have experienced.
I'm 35, 160 lbs, 5'10". Pretty lean and in good shape, even before testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). Just a lack of libido and usually pretty moody.
