Ed,
I'm sorry you're not getting better. But hang in there, these guys here can help.
Lol! Is this a cock pep talk?
Ed,

Yes, it IS getting better. I think it was the Arimidex. IVe cut down to 50 mg twice per week and it's already starting to come back.
I appreciate everyone's asvice. My lifts are still going up at the gym. I benched 95 kgs today (210 lbs). Only managed ONE. Not too bad for a 73 yr old I don't think.

What do roosters have to do with anything?
I'm just trying to encourage this guy Ed.
All joking aside, I'm glad you're feeling better. Managing e2 has been the most difficult part of trt. Once you get dialed in, it's great!
I hear ya. Of course "Ed" is erectile dysfunction. Hence the "HANG in there buddy, things will get better" pep talk. I'm not fully mature on things like these. Farts, poop, etc included. My 12 yo girl even rolls her eyes at my and her brother's immaturity.
I did express the same sentiment for OP.
Look dude T doesn't do that much for ED. The fact is most people aren't low T the range is so broad most are just the lower range, but still within the range. All of us on TRT are probably way higher than almost anyone on a natural level. I know of NO 40 yr olds pushing 1000ng/dl of Test naturally and many of us are well over that on peak.
I've done both TRT (still on it) but not nearly as diligent as I used to be. I feel no different pining 125mg/wk or 200mg/wk if my E2 is 20 or 60 or 100 I feel no different. I think most people it's psycho sematic just like everything else we do "We want to believe it's making a huge different" the only thing T has made a big difference in is body hair, drive, and the ability to retain muscle.
For BIG RAGING BONERS THAT GO THROUGH WALLS? IT'S VIAGRA AND IF THAT DOESN'T WORK YOU HAVE A HUGE MEDICAL ISSUE!!
I've said before I don't know which I'd quit if I had too? I hate pinning, but I like the muscle retention. I live feeling like a porn star in the bedroom which Viagra gives me.
Use ED meds!!
Viagra gives me a headache and that's all. Cialis gives me a headache and I can't sleep at night.
Somatropin and weight lifting, watching calories has made a HUGE difference to my life. I'm starting to get as horny now as I was 20 years ago and I feel great and it's only been two and a half weeks!

Don't be insulting. You are as old as you feel. The 60 year olds LOOK 60 (or older). I have one of 36 which chats me up and even younger ones as well. Alas, I'm faithful to my wife, but I can guarantee you, I could pick up a couple of the ones under thirty!Glad to hear you are doing well. If you are pinning three times a week you really need to add at least one more injection site besides glutes. Quads, Delts and Ventroglutes are all favorites.
And when you say "young women" at the gym are you referring to the 20 or the 60 year olds?

I FEEL under 30. I can out lift most of the younger blokes in the gym. I can out fuck most of them as well. I hope I die "on the job" What a way to go!
I don't do jokes very well and texting and smilies were never important to me, nor were smartphones. I guess that some part of me is old-fashioned enough to wish I was still back in the Sixties.
The help that I got from this and other forums was much appreciated I seem to recall, however, that everyone was against my using HGH and as it turned out, this was advice well ignored, because it was the HGH which did far more for me than everything else. Sure I need the TRT, but until I started the HGH my sex life was still f****d and all my aches, pains, torn meniscus, shoulder impingement etc were still very noticeable.
If you are going to use the internet for help you may want to familiarize yourself with its customs. It will make the experience less frustrating for you and everyone else.
And in all fairness, in Post #11 I recommended spending your money on blood work before spending it on HGH. Others recommended getting dialed in on TRT first (including getting blood work) and not running HGH unless you were prepared to buy enough for at least 6 months (which is very expensive).
For all we know, your feeling better is very likely to your getting blood work and dialing in your TRT protocol. You also increased your testosterone dosage up to 200mg/week and adjusted your pinning protocol. I find it much more likely that it is this that is driving the improvements you noted. I hate to break it to you but it probably isn't the HGH. Nevertheless I would love to see blood work showing what your growth hormone and IGF-1 levels are at now compared to before.
