Doing the TRT thing
So I just started testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) a month ago and I'm going for my 3rd injection tomorrow.
When I got my T tested it was 350 ng/dL.
After wasting time with a few Endos who told me my Test was in the normal range I finally found a doctor who specializes in testosterone replacement therapy and contacted him.
I went to his office and he gave me a 300mg. shot on the spot. He prescribed me 400mg. of Test every 2 weeks. Tomorrow I'm going back and he's teaching me how to self-inject
But here's the WEIRD part...
He isn't giving me anything to combat estrogen or keep my nuts from shrinking.
No HCG, nolvadex, or anything. Just straight T and that's it.
Well with all I've read about T replacement it seems there's more to it than just injecting T and calling it a day...
So I contacted Chip Wadowski since he seems to be the go-to guy around here and he confirmed that there is more to it.
I still need to talk more with Chip, but I wanted to make this first post just to introduce myself and see if anyone has any advice...
Is this doctor screwing over all his patients, or is it alright to run 400mg. of T every 2 weeks with nothing else? What do you think?
He said he's on T as well, so I'm assuming this is how he does it for himself. It's just strange how he specializes in T replacement and he shrugged it off when I mentioned Nolvadex and HCG and said I don't need that.
I didn't probe further into the subject at that point, but I want to go back to him with some facts and stats, etc... And raise the question again to see if I can get a more solid explanation out of him.
I've got an appointment to see him tomorrow... Is there any medical material I can show him to suggest HCG or some kind of anti-estrogen to protect myself?
Thanks guys and I look forward to sharing my results and hanging around this forum.
