I’m a 23 yr old male and I’m having difficulties deciding if I want to start TRT.
Does it make sense to start TRT knowing that testosterone at my age isn’t something that should be diminished?
From what I understand, TRT is something that older men should use because their natural T production declines with age.
Since I started my new job a year and a half ago, I’ve been suffering from severe adrenal fatigue which consists of lack of sleep, hating my job, too much stress, disruptive family, less time for relaxation and an unrealistic view of how much can be accomplished in one day.
I am working a full-time and a part-time job so I stay relatively busy and on top of that I try to train as much as possible with heavy volume (I don’t train that way anymore).
I never had this issue before, I was healthy, got good sleep, trained often and generally felt well.
A man usually never has low testosterone, unless there were other external factors such as too much cortisol, lack of sleep, adrenal fatigue, mental deterioration, etc.
What I mean to ask is, should I try fixing the other issues (ie. the underlying cause) before resorting to TRT?
To me that makes more sense instead of using TRT as a bandaid over a gaping wound, but i don’t think I’ll be able to make drastic enough changes to unravel the deep caustic damage that I’ve already inflicted to my fragile body.
