Brats' swedish lovetoy!
Former AAS-User (last cycle ended 3 years ago). TRT may be needed. Advice appreciated
Hi guys,
I havent been on ology in ages, hope everyone is alive and well. My last cycle ended 3 years ago and since ive been natural and really struggling with being tired all the time and not having any sex drive the last 2.5 years. So last year (about 1 year ago) I decided to get bloodwork done and these were my results:
June 2012:
S-Testosterone: 8.9 nmol/L
S-Testosterone bioactive: (free) 5.0 nmol/L
S-SHBG: 16 nmol/L
S-FSH: 0.8 E/L
S-LH: 1.2 E/L
So it took a while (about 4months) before my GP sent me to an andrologist (here in sweden there are very few).
He did another set of bloodwork with the same result (no change in fsh or lh or testosterone).
So he decided to put me on 3 months of Nolvadex @ 20 mg/d to help with the recovery. This was in October 2012.
During the nolvadex treatment he did no tests and also I have not yet been called back to see him since our "great" free healthcare here is slow as HELL. So I took it upon myself to get bloodwork done last week, which is exactly 3 months after my nolvadex treatment. The results were as follows:
S-Testosterone: 12 nmol/L (rise of 3 since before nolvadex)
S-Testosterone bioactive: (free) 5.0 nmol/L (same)
S-FSH: 0.9 (rise of 0.1) E/L
S-LH: 2.4 (rise of 1.2) E/L
Given these results, and me being off any juice the last 3 years, what are your thoughts and experiences? What would an american doctor prescribe me? Is my pituitary gland fried? Should I just wait or am I eligible for testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)? I am 27 years old.
My Cycle history:
was on testosterone year round the last 2 years before I quit. The doses were about 1000 mg to 1250 mg a week with periods of going down to 500 mg/w. The only brand I used were ICN galenika.
Thanks in advance and sorry I do not know how to translate these results to your measurement units.
