Should I be on Testosterone Replacement Therapy??

I'd defer to Megatron28 even though I'm a believer in TRT... but I fought it for a long time.
I lifted heavy, stopped cardio, ate grass fed organic beef daily, took nettle, ginseng - etc.

I've studied every night about BB and the endocrine system for just >4 years and it is absolutely fascinating. I know shit, but I least I know that.

"Is there a way to raise my Lh and fsh while on trt." No. Welcome brother. You're gonna love this ride.

The cheapest way to know your Free T & Bio-available T is to calculate it;
issam.ch/freetesto.htm
You need to know your total serum T and your SHGB (sex hormone binding globulin)
This is TRT 101

Best of luck!
 
I have read alot and everything you have told me is correct.Thks.Can I just quit the T shots and use pct drugs to restart or should I get thyroid,hypothalamus,vitamin D checked first?could I just stop T and wait a week or so an start clomid and tamox

If I was in your situation, I would stay on T until I had enough clomid for 50mg daily for six weeks and enough nolva for 20mg daily for six weeks. As soon as you have that on hand, stop your T injections, wait about 10 days and then run both the clomid and nolva. If you have extra left over keep running them, but make sure you get at least six weeks out of both. Once you've finished them both entirely, wait a further six weeks and then have blood tested for LH, FSH, TT, e2.
 
^^^^^ Listen to Prince. Don't just stop TRT cold turkey. You need to do PCT (aka HPTA restart). I would encourage you to work with a doctor knowledgeable of restart protocols who can prescribe the medications for you.

When I do have labs in two weeks what other test should I have done?Thks

thats normal on HRT.... you basically shut some things down when replacing in shots
 
Your Free T is definitely low and that is what is most important. I would be curious to know what your E2 is as well.

As already pointed out, if your having symptoms, I think the short answer is yes as well.
