New to TRT, Unique Case to Say the Least

What does that metaphor mean exactly

Don’t know how it’s possible
To have an amazing erection that lasts yesterday and not much today kept needing to stimulate

So weird

@lbc2020
What you will experience from week 8 on will be a totally different experience than weeks 1-7. Keep that in mind. All your hormones are all over the place until your body finally normalizes where much of the positive aspects of TRT will start. I know you are a little OCD & hypochondriac (you stated yourself, no judgment) so be careful you don’t over analyze what you are experiencing right now because it’s basically meaningless. It’s akin to going to the gym for the first time. The first 8 weeks suck because you don’t have a routine that you are used to, you wake up sore as fuck and when you look in the mirror you don’t see any results. Then magically 2 months in you look in the mirror and start seeing some positive changes, you no longer get that sore and you’re used to your routine so you look forward to the gym and feel good. On TRT by week 8 you’ll start feeling the good shit. What you’re feeling until then is basically meaningless.

Thank you for that
So
Ignore these day till day hour to hour fluctuations
One night nocturnals one day none and it effects my day greatly bc I read into it

Thank

Thanks again

When I was hit by the finasteride syndroms in 2011 I became suicidally depressed
It’s hard to talk about but it’s true I was even hospitalized
I slowly got my life back and now have a family but those feelings have come back and it’s scary
Real scary

It’s like an option you Have in the back
If your mind but I don’t want to die at all I just don’t want to feel like this no libido and unpredictable erections and always thinking about finasteride…I hadn’t thought about it for the last damn seven years

Do you think erexrions were fantastic the day of injection bc I got a bump in T And estradiol or just a random thing and don’t pay attention too like you said

Or it’s just random. Did you get random erections some days and not others before all of this? I know I did. Part of the problem of knowing about symptoms of pfs or low t or whatever is you start trying to associate everything with one of those when it’s just day to day life

Yes I did

Random erections like when driving but half girth
Nocturnal erections rarely or soft but the day of injection they were significantly better and I was able to achieve one that lasted (although I did it to test myself to see if I could get one)-wasn’t actually in a sexual situation or horny at all

Today I did the same thing and nothing
I guess that’s maybe part of the problem

I had some semblance of libido (albeit lower libido) before TRT. When I started TRT and was doing it the right way I had basically no libido for months. Then it would come and go. Eventually it stayed and progressed to the point that I couldn’t imagine it being any higher. You have to be patient and give it time. I know that concept is difficult and it took me forever to figure it out and subscribe to myself. One of the main reasons I stay posting on this forum even though my TRT is figured out and I have felt amazing for a while now is to try and help folks to not have to go through the mistakes I made before getting there (which would save them months/years of not feeling great). Most of the folks with issues would be fine if they just waited it out instead of changing things (assuming they are on a remotely high enough dose to help them).

Or so fucking depressed they want to end there life
That’s a horrible thing
Being fearful that your dick and libido and mental health won’t come back

Thanks for your input

It’s this damn finasteride bullshit that’s fuckin with me (it’s permanent is all I see)

Did you have any ED at all?

Yes and when I got hard it wasn’t totally hard. I didn’t even realize how not hard it was until TRT. I took several antidepressants when I was younger that caused sexual side effects and never completely recovered from them until TRT. Probably similar to Finasteride issues. I took Paxil and was not able to get an erection for a full year. Sucked

Thanks bro

You seem like a good man

Thank god I took trazdone which is supposed to boost your sex drive(which it did) for the first 4 months but I was also playing around with test boosters at the time i didn’t know ur supposed to cycle off of them I decided not to and I lost my drive completely I came of trazdone and my sex drive has been dead since I only found one guy who got pssd from trazdone so it’s extremely rare! And at high enough doses can be used as a viagra!

So what’s the point your making? Your libido is dead ? Has it come back?? If so how

My point is if I have Ed from trazdone(only 1 other case in the world) then it could be fixed because they say if u get Ed from a antidepressant,sleeping pill,finstride,Accutane it’s perment u can find plenty of cases of guys saying they never got the sex drive back even after 15 years which is fucking crazy!

So your saying you got better? And it can get better ? Sorry I missed the point a bit and I don’t mean to be moronic

I have not got better but if this guy did so can we! I do not believe we will but hey faith can’t kill us more than we are already dead if get what I’m saying

What are your issues

Just zero sex drive high anxiety and no morning wood! I doubt it will come back there’s a guy on pssd forum saying he took Accutane and trazdone and was on trt with no benefits
