New to TRT, Unique Case to Say the Least

Not really no

Can you have hypothyroidism even if your numbers are perfect essentially

I would prefer this to be the cause of hypogonadism for some reason it would be easier to accept

Not enough fat will give you the stated symptoms, thyroid aside. Low fat is a horrible diet for a number of reasons. Get some Good fats in and it will help in a lot of ways. I literally would turn up the bottle and knock back a mouthful of Flax Seed oil at least once a day when cutting weight for competition - to make up for what wasn’t in the diet.

So drink the fats
Eat more fats

Can you have sub clinical hypothyroidism even with good numbers

In that case do you treat it with thyroxine

There is a current movement towards this. Personally, I wouldn’t, I think people are looking for a bogeyman in the wrong place. If the numbers are good, it’s probably best to look elsewhere for the problem.

100 mg viagra didn’t work last night
Wtf

When this happens to me it’s usually bc my e2 is too high. What’s your protocol again?

120 week two injections a week

Only happens to me if I’ve changed something in the last 6-8 weeks. I won’t go so far as to say E2 doesn’t matter, but I think it matters a lot less than some want to believe, esp for the majority of people.

Recently dose was lowered from 140 to 115-120 based on docs recommendation
Little changes make big differences I guess

And we know depression doesn’t help fuck

Started Wellbutrin today
Hate it

Maybe she should have increased dosage who knows
But my week four numbers looked very good did they not and that was the low point two and half day’s after injection

wellbutrin, like testosterone, takes 6-8 weeks to stabalize.

It’s all in your mind buddy. It takes weeks to build up to useful levels and maybe even longer to start working.

You seem to be asking others a lot what works for them, thats fine, but underneath that I am getting the impression you are searching for a magic pill which will immediately solve your problems.

Why don’t you take a break from the forums as others have suggested? Stick with the Wellbutrin and TRT and make no changes for 8 weeks, and then let us know. Don’t contemplate and plan changes as you are setting yourself up for failure. And be sure to immediately call for professional help should you feel like life is not worth living.

Best of luck

A lot of docs these days only care about the numbers, they will completely ignore the symptoms.

The symptoms is part of the diagnosis. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to give you a trial of thyroid hormone to see if it resolves your issues.

There are some forms of thyroid dysfunction that cannot be detected in laboratory testing, for example thyroid resistance which is documented in medical literature.

Once my trt kicked in I never needed Viagra etc. Give it another 3 weeks and then at numbers vs how you feel. With PFS, anecdotal evidence says you’ll need upper levels of normalcy with your numbers.

But you never had impotence
Or penile changes did you @samguy19

I think he should keep posting. He is having suicidal thoughts and this is good for him until he gets a bit better.

There aren’t many guys you can talk to about this topic. Maybe no one to talk to.
Sometimes we just got each other to talk about trt.

One other person knows this is my wife. I told my best bud about a year ago. Asked some questions when I first told him and that’s it.

And it’s too complicated to tell family. They will judge and mis understand.

Thank you

I’d take a penile implant at this point ffs!

Guys
Can TRT actually worsen ED?
I don’t understand how some days things work easily and other days it’s like dead down there

How can that be

DHT—55ng/dL (normal is 10-65)

So
Looks like my numbers are ideal at this point

Which is positive

It’s been six weeks. Some have suggested 12 weeks. Just a little update

Yeah If you have made any adjustments even dosage of test I’ve heard it can take longer as it’s all about consistency. I have waves of ups and downs just like you for the record. Last week I was fine, could function without a pill and had libido, this week my libido is lower and I don’t have the confidence to work without a pill. I’m hoping everything stabilizes but I think it’s all about time and consistency if the numbers all look good
