This shit is so hard to dial in I personally wouldn’t voluntarily fuck around with it for the chance at one good weekend. But I’m an old fart and I’m boring.
Quality of life is really important - and tough to hang on to - if you feel good and can get it up and finish the job, why mess with success.
There are other ways to pep things up than futzing around with your prescribed medications. Well at least these prescribed medications.
No worries man.
I didn’t take that as condescending? Yea I was pretty dialed in at 160. I got the ok to go up to 180. So I figured I would give it a whirl to see if I could make things just that much better. So far almost 3 weeks into upping it I haven’t noticed any benefit. There’s also a few different factors that could be playing a big part. I was sick for almost a week. What was odd is that I never felt fully sick. It was like up and down as if my immune system was doing a pretty good job of fighting it. But it had me weak enough to not work out. My diet has gotten a little loose. I have been allowing myself to eat some really fatty high caloric foods and sweets. Which is not typical for me. So I’m squashing that. Also, I quit taking my AI. Id like to go without an AI if possible. So I got alot going on that could be affecting me. But I’m going to give it another month. The higher dose for me is not problematic at the moment. I still have good libido. It’s just not that crazy high libido.
I started TRT for all the basic reasons; better mood, recovery, libido, strength and muscle gains, etc. Almost one year in I’m happy that I chose this route.
That’s hormones for you, effects us differently . I wouldn’t notice anything either, but there are guys that would take two extra milligrams and have all kinds of reactions.
