Hcg made it more normal, but still wasnt quite normal or as enjoyable. Less intense when blowing loads, at least for me.
You did something like 500-100 IU weekly right? Thatās why I always wondered what it would be like going higher and supplementing like 70-80 mg of T.
Yeah thatās another thing since TRT feels like a have a numb dick like I donāt feel it. Even when it does work or I wank it itās such a bland feeling. The damn over all fatigue too I canāt explain it. I can try in that sleep is crap on TRT at times, but then on good runs of sleep it still never feels like it was enough.
Doc wanted 350iu 2x a weekā¦ i did 250iu eod and 350 2x a weekā¦ kinda mixed it up, some weeks i dod a but more others a bit less.
Last night i slept great woke up feeling good. Day 2 of enclomiphene
In the past when I dropped TRT entirely for a few weeks it felt so good the 2nd-3rd week. Alleviated the problems with sleep, fatigue/brain fog, even erections got better.
Made me wonder if a drastic reduction in dose/levels can be done long term. But never able to replicate that feeling as soon as I inject.
Why did you restart if you felt so good stopping???
Hard headed to make TRT work, physique is great. Reading forums pulled me back in that maybe I can be like these guys whose āwives just canāt keep up with themā. Or the āyou just need to give it timeā, I fell for that one quite of few times questioning myself.
Also it was self monitored. Didnāt have HCG or clomid or anything on hand. So while that time frame felt great I was worried down the road when my levels tank and I am left with my dried shriveled raisins on their own.
I highly recommend Sermorelin. It is phenomenal for sleep, and fixing your sleep issues will likely fix the rest.
I recommend Sermorelin over the other GH releasing peptides as they all work through different channels, and while I donāt always understand the deep science of a hormone cascade, itās my understanding Sermorelin also releases Orexin alongside GH through its pathway. Orexin aids in sleep directly, and is much better than the indirect sleep assistance from others.
I am on both TRT and Sermorelin at 40 and itās honestly a toss up over which is better. I feel a more youthful level of strength and athletic related energy from the t boost, but adding Sermorelin gave a general sense of greater energy, better mood, I swear Iām more flexible and mobile and old creaky joints arenāt barking anymore.
Definitely worth trying on its own.

Sermorelin on its own? Does it show its working in blood work, I kept reading it has to be in combo with something else.

I have not had post use labs drawn yet. Iām having them done at 6 months. 1.5 to go.
I can tell you without a doubt my sleep quality is 100x better, and Iām benefiting in all the ways one would from regular, quality sleep.
I do believe it has helped joints strengthen as well. Fewer aches and pains, better mobility and flexibility et cetera.
I wonāt know if the pituitary kick is also translating to increased T production as sometimes reported because Iām on trt as well, but it stands to reason T would increase with a generally more active pituitary gland, and definitely from sleep.
It hasnāt made me stronger. No gains in leaps and bounds above what would be normal and my bf% is about 3% lower than 4 months ago but Iām sure it fluctuates up and down by at least that much. I generally eat clean but am not a competitive bodybuilding watching every calorie.
The feeling and anecdotal evidence are enough for me. Even if all it did was improve sleep the way it does, Iām a buyer.

2 weeks since last shot day 3 enclomiphene. Last night i needed a nap after work, slept for an hour, first time in a long time i needed a nap, over-all still feeling ok, sex drive slightly down, no longer staying hard after blowing a load in my woman. Time for cialis today. Going to be doing 25mg enclo eod for the next 6 weeks. Started a few days before the 2 week mark because it does stimulate the testes regardless if i still have test cyp in me or notā¦ the sooner the better imo
If you have the patience and your not riding high hemoglobin and Hemaā¦ go for itā¦ if i didnt need to donate so quickly i would have tried a lower dose.
I will be honest dude I never had a problem with this, I never donated blood since I started TRT. A few times I tested slightly elevated HCT but it was transient and went away if I just hydrated well. I also never saw any correlation with higher dose/levels and HCT as one of my higher dose runs didnāt do anything to it.
I honestly believe too many people run to donate in desperation thatās just something temporary.
I have an amazing month after my HPTA fired back up. Then I slowly declined over 8 months and found my way back to TRT.

Lucky for youā¦ Donating sucked! I probably coulda gotta away with 80-90mg a weekā¦ Doc called and said to donate so I did, I felt better afterwards, I did have dizzy spells, and the sauna a few days before I got the call to donate I almost passed outā¦
Day 15 am fatiquedā¦ comes and goesā¦25mg eod of enclophimene
Why didnāt you try enclophimene? From all the things I read lots of guys do well on itā¦ the dosing can be a bit tricky.
It comes down to a simple concept, drugs versus a natural hormone. Drugs are chemicals, toxins not natural to the body.
Big Pharma has brainwashed everyone into believing drugs are perfectly safe. This is the same Big Pharma that originally said opioids arenāt addictive.
Thereās chemicals in nearly everything we eatā¦ im not against it or if one is safer or better, but giving my experience i will explore this route now and if i stop vaping snd my hemo is sub 15 at least i would consider injections again at no more than 100mg a week.
Iām going to limit my exposure to all these chemicals and toxins.
Quit vaping asap. Chronically vaped for years and years, worse thing I ever did.
Makes me wonder if the test or the vaping up my hemoglobinā¦ smoking and doing bloodwork hemoglobin was kinda stable at low 16s
