In a crazy position - is a trt clinic the answer

I am 21 years old, I started steroid use at 18. Now I feel really off all the time, like really off. I have problems now making progress in the gym when off cycle. I don't know how else to say it but that I have libido problems now..i just feel shitty all togeather and my well being isn't good. My regime has been made out of all oral OTC steroids with the best otc post cycle therapy (pct) I can find. I feel like i cannot keep going on with these oral only cycles, yeah it's stupid That I have been doing oral only cycles but its all i could get. I need something I can run continually, Test etc. Is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for someone like me who wants to make large muscle gains? I want to keep things legal and don't want to go to some guy i dont know at my gym for hookups. I just don't know what to do, my hormones are fucked up and My love and passion for bodybuilding is everything to me in life, I'm serious about it and plan on making it my career. I'm in a really tight spot. I don't want to pay some endocrinologist that will not work with me in my goals. I want a clinic to understand where I'm coming from and possibly work-into my goals with me.

Little confused by your post, but however to answer a question, no testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is not for people like you to make large muscle gains. I am on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) because my body no longer produces the amount of Testosterone I need to function. If you are seeing testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) as being a lifetime cycle so you can do bodybuilding, then you are not understanding the purpose of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).

However, with that set aside, if you feel like shit and have no libido, the best way to go about that is to get blood work done to see where you stand. The main purpose of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is to make you feel normal again and to put you on the same level playing field as before, not to get you cycling. Depending on your levels, you could do another post cycle therapy (pct) to see if that jump starts your levels back in check. Again, you said you want an Endo to work with you and your goals. Keep in mind your goals need to be your overall health and well-being, not wanting to bench 500 pounds or build more mass.
 
No testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is not going to get your huge muscles. The idea of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is to get you into a normal healthy test range like a normal person.

Aas gets you IMO a super range and the weekly dose is 400-900% higher then most testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) doses. You should look in the aas section here onthe forums.

Also my opinion: you could damage your liver/kidneys running harsh oral aas all the time.

preach it.

Get your bloodwork before you do any further damage.
 
Yeah I'm going to try to get bloodwork done. If it comes back (i can already say what the results are going to be though), how much test would you give me a week? I hear about people on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) being able to do supraphysiological BLASTS and then going back to there testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) dose. Do you let your clients do this or is it only certain clinics that let do you that. For example like 500mg for like 10 weeks and then go back down? Something like that.

At your age and stated purpose I doubt most clinics would touch you dude. Unless you have a documented history of low test (more then one) and have seen several Drs/endros to try and restart and/or figure out the root cause.

I wouldn't anyway if I owned or was involved with one (I'm not).

WOW! This is why i dont like the idea kids looking up to bodybuilders and being uneducated about the ramifications of improper AAS. use.
 
Stop taking the orals and let your body recover to it's normal state. Then go get blood work done. Orals are harsh dude, especially if you're living on them. And especially X2 if you started to take them at 18, before your body was done adjusting chemically. They will fuck you up physically and emotionally. Let everything chill out naturally and see where you sit.
 
I wouldn't expect any doctor to turn you into Ronnie Coleman if that's your goal, though if your levels are low now, even a testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) dose will make a huge difference. All I take is about 125mg/5 days and feel and look great.

he just wants legal roids, period. he has no interest in his health which is obvious by his post. i say send him to bb.com over there are all the great 17 year old roid veterans
 
I agree with all posters to the thread,man not to be harsh,but what first messed you up is doing the orals and at 18 for crying out loud!!:Pat:...you shouldve known better,at 18 years old,food alone should have been you main focus,not aas,you still have several years ahead of you to workout and bodybuild naturally,your test levels are starting to peak at your age and until you reach the age of 30ish or a bit older you should function normally with hard work and food!!!!Unless there is an unlying problem,im no doctor,but for your sake,health wise,i would let all that oral stuff get out of your system and go to an Endocrinologist and get blood work done to see whats up,man im telling you,you are way to young to mess yourself up with your hormones at your age,or hell even go to your regular doctor and get blood test....then do what they say,you are gonna have to tell them whats up to get yourself back to normal.....good luck
 
Thanks for the responses guys. I'm planning on getting bloodwork done as soon as possible. I don't know an endocrinologist but can I just go to any doctor and get bloodwork? I'm on my second week after post cycle therapy (pct), I felt fine on pct but it seems like things are steadily declining..damn..im staying positive though for the most part..

2 weeks after post cycle therapy (pct) what a joke. Dude post up on the aas section that's were this thread should be, wait a month for bloods if it's low run a better post cycle therapy (pct) and wait a month after that to Retest.

Tell them what post cycle therapy (pct) you ran and get advice for a better one if you dont fully recover.
