Intro and Just found out i qualify for TRT, questions

[Xanode]

So im from Australia and 32, due to having a benign tumour on my Pituitary gland i have near zero test levels all confirmed by my gp and an Endocrinologist over the past 6 months.

The specialist prescribed Reandron 1000 which is Testosterone undecanoate and supposed to last 10 weeks in-between injections.

After doing allot of research and watching allot of youtube vids about TRT allot of others on it prefer more regular and faster working injections of Testosterone Cypionate or sustonon.

what i want to know is it ok for me to ask my doctor for one of these instead?

Mainly because with having near zero test in my system for who knows how long(i have suffered from treatment resistant severe depression and anxiety for the past 10 years, and this is the reason my new doctor thinks why my symptoms have been totally resistant to anti-depressants) and feeling like utter shit i want a faster acting ester. Thank god this doctor thought to have my hormone checked or who knows how long this would have gone undetected.

If your depressed and cant fix it have your levels checked!

So is it ok to ask for a different prescription?

thanks for any help.

It is OK to ask for Cypionate or Enanthate. But Nebido (what they are prescribing for you) works well too. However, many find that it needs to be injected more frequently than once every 10 weeks. But that is part of the "dialing in" process. Regardless which ester you choose, if you get the dosage and frequency figured out you should start feeling much better!

I agree with Megatron. Some people like myself need that medication more frequently, for me its every 4 week and it takes 6 days for it to kick in and the last few days before it kicks in my test krashes totally and i need to use gel to keep my body going. This is my third shoot and its getting better each time. It has however giving me a great life, i love it! Good luck!

FYI - the 'shorter' acting testosterone available in Australia is testosterone enanthante. Sold as Primoteston Depot 250mg/ml, 1ml pre-loaded syringes.

If you go this route, to make dosing easier, you can transfer the contents of said syringe into a new sterile multi-dose vial. This allows you to draw the exact dose you require.
