Yeah that’s one fear I have mate. But I must try I guess. If I can bare it. It would be nolva on the PCT stage.
So you reckon i’ll never return to normal LH levels. And what damage was done 10 years ago. Is done? I know it’s only your opinion. But I do want to hear it.
I guess getting adequate thyroid diagnosis first helps too. Aiyaiyai!
Well I think it depends what’s causing it ultimately, but I don’t think many manage to do what you are trying to. Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t give it a go though, always an exception to every rule
Yeah true that. Cheers brother. See how I go aye.
If I read correctly. You’ve been on TRT for 10-12 weeks?
Erm, a bit more than that now. Maybe like 16 weeks.
I have a good working knowledge on the subject from bodybuilding for many years also
Yeah sweet. Have you experienced any teste atrophy in the past 4 months since starting TRT? and have you ran any HCG to combat this? What do you deadlift lol?
Oh definitely bud, they have shrunk quite a bit. I’m not using hcg. Have some in the fridge but not sure if/when I will use it. I have all the children I want ![]()
Deadlift 250, but the names just a reference to my fav lift (and I think it sounds cool) rather than any announcement that I’m amazing at it or anything!
Lol chehbro. You may want to as they may become sore if they go away too much…
I read alot of your earlier posts. So when you started TRT they had you taking Adex right off the bat from your first shot?
Yeah they did. But to be fair to him he was spot on with the dose I needed! And I knew I’d need some ai initially anyway as I’m quite sensitive to e
If you don’t want to run hCG forever. Just try it at like 250-500iu a day, for a week straight and see if has any effect. Then repeat every 3 months or so. Just my 2 cents. That’s what I will try and be doing if I have to stay on TRT. From what I’ve read there’s alot of ways to go about the hCG addition.
Yeah well I think I’m sensitive to E too. If I’m only going to do this for 3 months (at the beginning). I may try a little Adex to see if it can help my mood. What do you reckon? Or wait 4-6 weeks until new bloods?
I may do, I’ve been considering a trial. Some of my reading suggests that if you don’t care about fertility then there is no reason to use it as it’s just another substance putting into yourself. So I’m not sure atm
Wait until symptoms. Don’t worry too much even about bloods… go on how you feel unless ridiculous levels
One of the most important things is to try not to over complicate stuff. Take the least you can get away with, of everything. And don’t stress about it… stress can play havoc with your body leading you to believe you need to mess with things when you prob dont
I can assure you. From my experience. That if the teste size becomes small enough to where there is just like a rough scrotum sack left. It can become painful. My balls are fucked. They fluctuate to that state in sex. But other times of the day they are like small chicken eggs n hanging. I don’t understand. But years ago I did get pain with them after coming off AS straight.
Oh yeah 100% I’m just tryna wrap my head around everything
One more important question that relates to me. Have you lost any extra fat tissue around your gut n hips from being on test for 4 months and having your hormones in check?
Yes quite a lot. Although I’m pretty dialed in with training and diet too when ‘on’, so that has obviously helped a lot too
