Hi all, I am a 31 year old male, I've been on TRT for the past year or so (I only say or so because I've had to change doctors and they had way different ideas on TRT).
My first doc had me tested and my t level was around 150, he started me on test cyp 50mg 2x's a week. It never seemed to do...
Well..I asked my doctor if I could up it to 2 patches...he said "let's give it time". But I feel like crap. I think I am going to go ahead and try 2 patches..I can't take feeling like this much longer.
Well I'm definitely not feeling as well as I did on the axiron... I am going to message my doctor on Monday and see if I can try 2 patches. I'm right back to where I was before trt.
I'm not sure if I'm even getting the same amount of test that I was getting on axiron.
Quick question...I was using 2x pumps of axiron once a day. Now I use 1 patch of 2mg androderm once every night. I know the axiron was 30mg of testosterone per 1 pump which equals 60mg a day, but I thought I read you only get around 10mg a day from that.
And I thought I read that you get almost...
Got my androderm patches this morning. Put one on a few hours ago, already feeling better. Wondering if I can cut one of these things open and apply the leftovers...
I haven't been on shots for a couple of months. I had been using axiron that I got for free from the doctor. That ran out on Friday (actually Thursday I was only able to get a half dose). So I have been without a full doseage of t since Thursday. Didn't feel top bad until Sunday night..yesterday...
This is awful. Doctor did call in a script but not in stock until tomorrow. I have enough test cyp left to give myself around 30mgs. Going to do that this afternoon and hope for the best.
This is an awful feeling. Anxiety is back, hot flashes, feeling very tired. This sucks.
UPDATE-
wow, I completely bottomed out last night. I've been without test since Friday. Did feel too bad Friday night through mid day Sunday. Last night I started getting hot flashes and felt extremely moody. Today I am having major issues focusing at work and I just feel out of it. I hope to...
I am going to see what happens with this whole patch thing, (ie- how it makes me feel,cost) and if its a bad situation then I'm going to switch doctors. He is a very nice guy, I just can't shake the feeling that he is humoring me with the testosterone. Its hard to explain.
Started injections last spring (march, I think). I did 200mg test cyp every 2 weeks, did nothing. Then in late April I did 2x 50mg test cyp a week until Aug/Sept. Did nothing other than make me eat everything in sight and gain a ton of water weight. And my mood was worse than what it was before...
Well, went to get my axiron refill and was told that my insurance does not cover axiron and even with the eli lily discount card my Rx would still be roughly $400 a month.
My insurance company pushes hard for the injectable (and I know 99% of guys say that's the best method..for me it wasn't...
I'm sure our laws are the same. But, unfortunately this new doctor is very anti self injections. I am actually very surprised he gave me the axiron. Which is surprising since my t levels were around 150 so it wasn't like I was even at 400. My previous doctor (before he left) told me "do your...
Sorry for the late update..I had my appointment with my doctor, I think I had mentioned earlier that he did not want to give me a script of test cyp because according to him "I worry about people breaking needles inside of them". Well when I went back I explained to him that my mom is an RN and...
I have an appointment with my primary on Wednesday, I am going to ask him for another 4 month supply of test cypionate (enough to get me through January) I have a ton of work related travel and meetings coming up and with the weather getting ready to be bad I can't afford to keep going to the...
Had my appointment today...what a waste of $45. The doctor basically said "your numbers are rising..let's keep you on your protocol". They did want to try "aveed" on me, it is a long lasting testosterone. You get 1 shot and get another one 4 weeks later then you get another shot once every 10...
