Why
Would you remove them.
Would you remove them.
Very obvious question - why would I want them removed:
1. I have not previously done any TRT;
2. I was TT 230 and Free T of 5.8. prior to Pellets.
3. Initial Test 2 weeks in after getting 2000 (units? 10 pellets BioTE) was 1491 TT and Free T 27.5
4. Estradiol went from 40 to 45.
5. I have slept many nights 8 - 9 hours with no getting up and few dreams. Pretty interesting. I am very tired at the end of the day. Go to sleep 2 hours earlier. I wouldn't say I have a surge of energy. I am 205 with BMI of 27 so I need to lose weight. I am on a low glycemic diet. I am projecting 6 months to lose 30 - 40 pounds. I train with weights 3 times a week and cardio and walking the balance.
I have felt anxious and stressed. I am awaiting retest. I am trying to discuss Estradiol as mentioned by this Board - the Doc thinks my Estradiol isn't that high.
I had no idea that getting pellets out were much harder than putting them in. My doctor who is also my Cardiologist claims there are huge benefits to higher TT - he believes the range of 300 - 800 is actually far too low for the benefits. I got a second opinion from another doctor that agreed. I guess there are many doctors that are extremely bullish on the health benefits of TRT based on a recent paper by a group of doctors at a conference at Mayo Clinic.
Why do I want them removed? Well I am concerned going up so high so quickly and being locked into the pellets for 6 months means I am "Locked-in" to more TRT because coming off might have its own side effects. Also I don't like the ideal of ending my body's T production. Again, my doctor countered saying my body wasn't really making too much T to begin with.
I am sensitive to drugs. He had my on Nature Thyroid and Meformine and wanted me to take CJC Peptides. I worry about Heart Attacks and Strokes but Doctors said that is also been debunked. I guess I am just an anxious critter. I would have liked more control.
Anyone else on Pellets? Had initial anxieties?

So your doc is Right. there are great benefits to having the higher test levels. I feel like a million busk at that level. Just get your estrogen down and supplement vitamin b6 for your dreams and shoot 3j line and get him to work up a bit for you he will have the body fat off you pretty easily. The only concern I have is for your Blood pressure. I hope you is will have what it take to stick it out and get it dialed in. once you do it will be life changing. You levels were worse then my father at 65 his levels were 768.
Get that estrogen down and try some melatonin and get some good sleep.
