Hi all,
I'm posting in this section because you guys quite possibly have more knowledge and experience than I'll find in the other parts of this forum.
Bit of a story please bear with me.
3 years ago I went to the doctors complaining of no sex drive, crap erection quality, if not outright erectile dysfunction. I need to add at this point that 2 years prior I ran a long deca test cycle with a somewhat average pct which in hindsight wasn't adequate. I had a reasonable sex drive before this and normal wood.
I had a blood test, which included testosterone among other things (which were all normal)
Nov 2011
TT 9 (8-31)
For the Americans I think this is somewhat slightly under 300ng/dl.
A horribly low result, considering I'm now 26, so around 23 at the time.
The NHS wouldn't offer me treatment as I was "in range".
I suffered feeling like **** and thought maybe that was just me and who I am. And I was going to be like this forever. So some years later I did another cycle of test prop + npp, and felt somewhat better, but not great during the cycle. Afterwards I did the PoWeR PCT and then feeling like crap, went back to the doctors and pleaded for help.
3 weeks after power PCT...
July 2014
TT 15 (9-31)
LH 5 (1-8)
FSH 4 (1-7)
Because I still felt like crap I did a butt ton of research and decided I should do 100 days of clomid 25mg ed.
About 7 days in I started getting reasonable morning wood and I could sometimes get aroused if i thought about sex. So I went to the doctors on day 11 of my clomid treatment, asking for another blood test because at this point I felt better than I have in years and years.
Sept 2014
TT 28 (9-31)
LH 5 (1-8)
FSH 10 (1-7)
I am on day 23 now and I'm pretty sure I'm feeling a bit better everyday, slowly. Sometimes now I zone out and get wood thinking about sex. I usually wake up with wood.
The thing which concerns me though is that even though my TT is now nearly top of range after just 11 days (which I'm delighted about) I don't have any real "sex drive". I can get hard now easier than I have in years, but there's no desire there. I have no desire to chase any tang.
Looking for some opinions on what I can do, as many of you guys have probably gone on a similar journey. I want the "hunger" I distantly remember from my teen years.
I know I F****D myself doing stupid stuff, hindsight is a great thing but you only learn by making mistakes. I am done with gear now, I'm happy with my size and really just want to feel normal.
Many thanks for any help I receive and thank you for taking the time to read.
