Thinking of starting TRT and would like some input please.

Stats:
Male
46 years old
6'-2"
225
Been lifting off and on for 20 years, consistent lifting the last 3.5 years.
Not real sure on body fat percentages.

Finished Cycle and PCT, cycle is shown below:

First Cycle as follows (
Weeks 1-10 500mg GP Test E (1ml twice a week)
Weeks 1-10 250mg GP Deca (.5 ml twice a week)
Weeks 1-4 40mg GP Turan per day
Weeks 1-13 .5m GP Anastrozole per day
I have PCT ready to go per sticky article.

So everything went great until about 3rd week of PCT, started having ED issues.

Just got labs done by Primary Physician, they called said everything is "normal" range. My thought is well my dick don't work right so everything is not normal.

I just got a copy of the labs. Pre-cycle my Testosterone was 305 and i have had gyncomastia since I was 13.

Here is what I got from them:
Test = 359
SHBG = 41
Free Test = 6.3
TSH to FREE T4 = 2.0

They apparently did not run LH, FSH or E2 so I guess I will have to go get my own done.

Based on this I guess it time to start TRT. Anyone got any constructive thoughts comments or encouragement.

If my precycle number was 305 I'd look into trt for sure. I'm 47 and started a year and a half ago.... no regrets what so ever. Huge improvement in quality of life.

Good to hear need something encouraging been having fleeting thoughts of sucking on a shot gun lately.

Lots of guys do their own TRT with underground drugs, you can stay legal and just use a trt clinic. there is one that sponsors this forum. dont waste another day, call them up now

you were running .5 mg of arimidex/anastrozole per day . That is a LOT of AI, your E was prob crashed. I'm surprised your dick didn't quit working the whole cycle, and not just PCT. what was your Pct ?

Don't jump on TRT just cause you F'd up your dick running too much AI. Give it some time.

Did you get prolactin checked? You've heard of DECA right?

I appreciate the comments, feel like fucking ******* sometimes. Things seem a little brighter today. Finally got the plumbing to corporate and got laid twice this weekend by my beautiful wife. Funny how that changes your outlook. I did take 1mg of Anastrozole on Friday morning and by late afternoon seem like things kind of back to normal. Took another .5mg today. Kind of flying blind I now but I am figuring Esterogone levels may be out of whack.

I have reached out to IMT and filling out paper work now.

Also schedule surgery to deal with my gyno.

I got to thank you for all this information. My primary care physician just called and said every things normal and left it at that. Oh hey gave me to 50 mg VIAGRA. Your information and this forum is a god send.
