Unable to Finish on TRT

Don’t do it. I stopped years ago. Some tests my HCT is high, others it isn’t. Just stay hydrated and see if you have side effects. Point of me saying sometimes it is and sometimes it isn’t is to show it’s not the T, or not the T alone at least. (As in TRT dosing being the sole reason)

I’ve tested as low as 45 to as high as 52, not donating what’s so ever.

Lance Armstrong, the cyclist that doping during his cycling events and won seven 1st place gold medals back to back. He cheated!

Lance Armstrong hematocrit must’ve been way, way above the normal ranges. His body was more efficient and pumping blood with the thicker blood, because the vascular bed expands to account for the increased viscosity.

Olympians train at high altitude to take advantage of the thicker blood.

Men on TRT can take advantage of thicker blood at sea level. :smiley:

Could be prolactin and/or estrogen. Could also be the SERM. If you’re taking that for fertility, I would question the effectiveness. Have you checked LH/FSH while taking it with your TRT? Or had a sperm test done?

Would AI be crushing his estrogen enough to keep him from finishing?

Whats the boner quality like?

In my past experience I can say that when I had crushed E2 it was extremely difficult to finish.

Thanks for responding! I’m not worried about fertility. Got all the kids I want (4!)! I’ve decided to just take the testosterone. From the responses on here it sounds like the anastrazole is keeping estrogen too low. Enclomiphine not doing anything helpful.

I’ll come back and give an update in a couple weeks!

Taking the anastrazole and enclomiphine out of the regimen. Boners haven’t been as rigid as they were prior to trt which started a couple of years ago. I chalked it up to aging.

I wonder how quickly this will improve. Also, wonder if my scrotum will get back to a normal (larger) size.
