Just one last question…all three PCTs I did since summer 2020 I was subjectively feeling hypogonadal at the start - same state at the end - and like death 3 weeks later once all the PCT drugs cleared my system. This place I’m in now - feeling pretty good on HCG… IT’S REALLY DIFFERENT THIS TIME EVEN THOUGH I’VE TAKEN HCG BEFORE… could it be worth doing one last PCT from this improved state - one last shot in the dark at restoring myself to baseline? It’s a daunting prospect because nolvadex gives me brain fog and insomnia, and clomid gives me low mood, but I have enough nolva to do 40/40/20/20 - and around 13 50mg clomid to chuck in 25mg a night for 26 days for good measure. Maybe I could power through it. Ok maybe the clomid is overkill.
I’m desperate to go back on enanthate. It makes me feel really alive. But if there’s a fighting chance this PCT could be different and get me to baseline should I take it?
I wouldn’t see any reason why it would work now when it hasn’t before. If it’s me I don’t put myself through that misery again just for the chance of being back somewhere below baseline, which probably wasn’t all that good to start out anyway.

So I reduced my HCG on Friday to 250iu and I took .25ml/250mg per ml of enanthate on Sunday. Couldn’t be any more conservative with my dose. And I already feel like I’m on an express train to aromatisation hell. Two days and I’m completely impotent and when I do come it’s a joyless orgasm and worryingly a lot less cum. Porn gives me zero stimulation. I’ve taken .25 of arimidex and I’ll just have to sit out this hell and maybe go back to feeling ‘great’ (adequate). And when this happens my stomach balloons out like I’ve got ascitis too. I’m a wreck and fucking terrified at this stage. My balls are a bit smaller and softer but not painful.
Just in case anyone suggests seeing professionals I’ve done that already.
For what it’s worth this is a low e2 sign for me. But you’ve already started taking an AI. You may wanna get some labs before tossing things in/out

The .25 of arimidex will be worn off and still no better. Sitting out the (60ish mg - how the fuck can that fuck me up so much?) enanthate and going back to HCG at 250iu EOD and going to pay to see an andrologist/urologist. I’ve seen the endo and TRT doc so that’s all there is left that I can chuck money at. It’s scary, nothing is really working well. I’m in a worse position than before I started on TRT.
To whoever sees this or has helped over the last two years… I’ve finally recovered. It’s been two years of physical and mental torture but finally no pain in my balls and normal sexual function - and my body and brain just feel normal. I dunno if it was time or the ten days of nolvadex I just did but things just snapped back to normality very suddenly on Monday. Should I finish the PCT? It will have been my third or fourth. All the other failed.
