Summary:
Lab work showed my test levels were 250 at 39yrs of age.....
doc prescribed clomid......after starting low and increasing dose over a year my test levels got up to 550 and i felt good but my libido was non-existent.
doc switched me over to testosterone (40mg/wk) + 20mg/day danazol........ran this for 2 months and test levels went down to 160 and felt like crap (blood was drawn at day 7).
so we ran another blood test with it being drawn 3 days after a 40mg inject and my test levels were 390.
doc increased my testerone to 80mg/wk + 20mg/day of danazol...........ran this for 3 months then tested 7 days after inject and test levels still stuck at 190 and still feel like crap.
my doctor is now unsure what to try as he said he has never had a patient respond so poorly to testosterone.
so for now he is wanting me to try 100mg/wk split into two 50mg injections each week and wants me to consider getting test pellet implants so my levels are more even.
curious to know if i am an anomaly as my doctor seems very surprised with my labs?
any ideas on what i might try or suggest to my doctor?
should i get a second opinion?
would i be best off stopping trt all together and going back on clomid?
so far what i am doing is making matters worse. thanks in advance for sharing your experience or advice given.
