I have had problems getting and keeping an erection since starting TRT ~10 months ago; T was @230 ng/dl when Dr started me on TRT. Currently 6’ and 212lb @~15% bf coming out of my fairly clean winter bulk. I’m typically 192-195lb summer lean. Currently use 225 ml test/week injecting daily. Dr had me on 200 ml/week; total t was 900 then, but he recommended I up it a little; I’m going to bring it back down now that my test was way too high at 1500+. I lift for hypertrophy 4 days a week and run 2 days a week Z2. TRT significantly helped with a lot of low T symptoms.
Issue #1: libido is through the roof; consistently chasing my wife around, but I am struggling to keep it up without sildenafil. Estradiol was at 93 before AI. I am going to lower test down to 175 ml/week and try to drop the AI. With AI, estradiol was recently 42. Turning to this group for help. I’ve read through the forum, but I’m not sure what to try next.
Issue #2: my liver enzymes have been tracking slightly high since ~2014, but now they’re creeping up. Should I be worried and what can I do to correct it? Is anything I’m taking effecting? Just stopped creatine (I know its debated).
The boner thing might be in your head. I had this issue. Lost an erection a couple times and then it got in my head and I kept having issues. Dealt with the anxiety and now all is good. Just my experience.
As far as the liver goes i’m prob not gonna be much help.
Do you drink? What are the test ranges? Is your doc concerned?
Any other ideas with anything I could be taking. I eat pretty clean; whole food minus dinner (i’ve got three kids that often dictate some of what I eat then).
Yeah. You start trt and your hormones fluctuate and could cause issues. It happened to me and the. It got in my head. I was giving him my experience.
Why are you commenting on what my experience was instead of trying to help the OP?? This seems to be your MO.
If you don’t have anything useful to add why bother posting anything?
its possible its in my head. I may try the new mojo app and see if that doesn’t help. With libido so high, its possible; or at least I’m willing to explore that explanation for a remedy.
I had similar issues that you have. I started a shot of olive oil with cayenne pepper and lemon juice in the morning and a small bottle of pomegranate juice every night. My wood is pretty good. It could be in my head too because all my numbers are perfect. Although I’m not feeling as super hard and horny as I’d like I’m able to preform nightly
I said it could be in his head. Again, you are directing comments at me when you claim the OP needs to be helped.
I have him my experience. What have you done except derail his post??
I agree in that sense. That could be the case, just think that’s different then “it’s in your head” as if it came on out of the blue with him being sad or soemthing.
Did you even read what I said??? If you start taking hormones your body changes. With that change could come unwanted sides like erection issues. Once it happens once or twice it gets in your head and causes anxiety while having sex and could cause you to lose your erection. This is what happened to me. I gave him my 2c. What have you done for this thread besides attack me?
