Hey all, I don’t come by here much these days as my protocol has been pretty spot on. 154mg T cyp a week, EOD when I travel for long periods, and ED when I’m at home. Haven’t needed Cialis in forever, and the lady is quite happy.
Recently (like in the last couple of weeks), my scrotum has pulled up to nearly nothing, and my penis looks like it has a rubber band around the middle and has gotten as short as <1" flacid too at times. It gets so small, it gets slightly painful to pee, and then I end up having more drip out after. Super embarrassing. And no this isn’t a troll post.
I know atrophy is normal over time, but in the 4 years I’ve been on TRT, it’s been minimal. I can’t imagine that suddenly everything went to about 25% of its normal size, including my dick.
I had issues like this before with high estrogen, and I have noticed lower libido, weaker erections, and shedding a few more tears than normal since returning from my last 3 month trip a few weeks ago. Admittedly being in Europe, beer consumption was high.
I’m in South America now, so it’s a little tougher to get my E2 checked, and I really don’t want to jump to multiple blood tests without doing some basic self care and giving it a bit more time.
Any ideas what else I might try before my urologist appt this Friday? Been drinking plenty of water, no alcohol, and put the smokes (well, vape) aside after leaving Europe. Tbh picked up a few such bad habits, and part of me thinks it’ll just take a few weeks to balance back out.
