TRT Prescribed, But Afraid to Start

Subq works great. Around the stomach or any fat… right under the skin works as well. You can also use smaller needles so it doesn’t hurt. I’m doing daily and I have no issues with absorption and e2 atm.

Thanks. I’ve done subq for a few weeks. It’s not bad, but I didn’t feel like it was working. No real reason why though. IM just feels better for some reason, perhaps psychological.

But, if it keeps e2 down, I’m all for it. My shbg is roughly 19-23, so I need to watch it.

Enjoying it. I still have a lot of questions and enjoy helping others so I stick around (besides the terrific camaraderie). Currently I have no complaints other than stubborn fat loss.

If it doesn’t work then it doesn’t work. What makes you think trt won’t work. It’s obvious that at your age you need more T. The blood work proves this. Your system is not working properly for whatever reason.

Maybe you can sit down with pen and paper and write out your options. Put them in order and check each one off until something works.

Maybe you haven’t accepted the fact that your different and might have to take hormones to be normal. Maybe?

End of day a man or woman who takes hormones is optimized and will live much better than someone who is in natural. Especially as you grow older: don’t have to deal with natural aging issues like loss of muscle labido energy focus.

You have been given a guilt free pass to do hormone optimization . Run with it bro.

It’s different when you are healthy and start TRT.

Yes, my friend, i think you are right about this:

Maybe you haven’t accepted the fact that your different and might have to take hormones to be normal.

That is a good thought. I just ignored fact that i REALLY have health issues, and TRT is a treatment for it, and not a PED-supply for a men who doesnt need this, but whos doing it “recreationally”.
Probably it was my psychological defence mechanism.
