Newbie on Test - Now Low Libido??

[JimmyMac]

Hi - quick question. I have been on TRT (200mg cypionate/week). In the middle first cycle. Libido was ok-to-really good for a while now it seems its really dropped off. Is this normal? Should I look to get some blood work done? Maybe change of seasons, mild depression or something? I know lots of questions - any help appreciated.

on ~600mg/week now OR 200mg every 2-3 days keeping levels steady around 650-750 "active"

with the increase in test, your Estrogen levels could be elevated. Blood work would be a good idea...

estrogen is prob way high

using an AI at all?


Get some bloods done

Thanks guys, I am not using an AI - the thinking was I would be going back to the 200mg/week at the end due to my TRT so no need for PCT. I will find a place to get blood work done in Canada and get an AI to keep on hand as needed.

Are you on an AI for estrogen? I would recommend Dex 0.5mg eod

AI is not PCT.... AI lowers estrogen, SERMS are used in PCTyou likely need an AI..

12.5mg Aromasin ED or 0.5 Adex EOD should do the trick

The AI is not for your PCT. Anytime you ramp up the test levels, you are changing other aspects of the system and just because you are going back to the 200mg at the end doesnt mean to overlook the middle of the section. Always have the AI on hand before ramping.
