just found out i have low test levels (240) and i cant get to the endocrinologist til the end of December.
I was considering hcg or low doses of test each week.
Thoughts?

Nah a test booster should be ok, just don't do something that would cause suppression before you talk to the doc. You could end up making your situation worse and stuff .. get titaniumxl or something from nutrapalent, and maybe some formulaX or something else with daa , these should raise your test without suppression. But wait for a few more guys to.chime in here because I am no expert :)

are you coming off cycle? how old are you? do you really think it would be a good idea to run test up until you see the dr? just imagine you go to see him for low t but like a moron you decided to self medicate and your t comes in just fine when he re-tests. well there goes legit trt for you.

i would not take anything that can manipulate your hormones in any way until you see the endo as he'll prolly wanna run tests again. its important that your tests are accurate.

No. I'm 21. Just an idea ppl shot my way. I've had my t tested a few times and its came back low and the doctors always said it was because ivwas sick but this time I finally convinced them to do something. I've taking phs in the past when americell was around that's where I assume I got this issue but its a ****ty way to live with low t. So I guess the best thing to do is just hold it out for a couple months

yes hold out. with any luck youll end up with a decent endo who will try a proper restart protocol on you. chances are you never recovered from your ph use when you were younger. the exact reason us older guys tell you kids to wait. but inevitably you know someone or a couple guys your own age who used them and were fine, at the time... but as you well know now, not everyone escapes unscathed. if your dr doesnt want to try a restart id seek another dr. you are way too young to just be thrown on trt without at least trying to get your natty going again. youll be fine in the end. hopefully theyll get you restarted. if not, well we all know test will get you where you need to be.

do you know off hand what your lh and fsh were? if you have a full panel please post it up

try to get a mod to move this over to the anti aging sub forum

Problem is if you start messing with test boosters, your gonna skew your numbers when they inevitably ask to retest you. Which is going to lead to you not getting the proper help you need.

a restart is typically done with clomid but there are other protocols out there. clomid stimulates the release of lh. but if your lh is fine it wont do much

Don't do anything.

Wait until you see the endocrinologist. If you took DAA or some other test booster - it COULD actually throw you into the normal range again - at least temporarily.

And the Doc will just look at you and say ... "you're fine".

So no - wait to see the Doc that is the best thing.

Yeah this makes sense, I did not think about that.
