As you can see, except for Hdl and Test levels, my blood work is really good. I 'll work on the Hdl. My dilemma concerns the test levels. I work out, have a great diet(plenty of good fats, fiber- a well rounded diet)don't drink or smoke, etc. But as a 29 year old man, That's a low total test level. Add on to that how low my free test is and you see what I'm dealing with.
I used to be a monster when it came to sex, and now I have zero interest. My workouts for a long time have more or less just to maintain where I am- no real increases. I'm moody and despondent- just not me.
I did a few cycles in my early to mid 20s- last one being about 4.5 years ago. I always felt normal on test, like that was how I was supposed to feel.
Anyway, I recently tried to boost my own levels. I hopped on an aromasin, nolvadex, fenugreek, and tribestan cycle. I could tell it helped a ton. My nuts filled out, my lifts went up, sex drive was returning- but when I discontinued everything went back to how it was.
I'm not messing with clomid, as it takes a toll emotionally and I never really felt it worked that great for me.
So any suggestions on where to start? My relationship is really suffering here guys. Thanks a ton for any info.
