AM, I am reaching out to help review my current situation and offer your way more experienced advice. Thanks in Advance.
32/M/5'11/190. About 4 years ago I suffered a lower back injury (2 herniated discs), that followed by not working out, high stress, and natural ageing I began to have less and less energy. I managed to heal my back naturally, and have been better for about 1.5 years, however the energy and fire has never come back. I've managed ups and downs in the gym but not much of anything and find it difficult to find routine, especially about 8 months ago I got vertigo and been managing that now, much better but not 100% and looking to get an MRI shortly just to be safe.
I decided I needed to take action to get me out of the 4 year rut I have been in so I went to a reputable TRT and wellness facility, starting with bloodwork, below are original lab key points.
Total T 625, Free T 14.8, Bio A T 350, DHEA 242
Cortisol 6.18
Vitamen D 21, B12: 481
The highlight for me from my consultation was my cortisol was stuck low from chronic stress, driving zero energy all day simply surviving on coffee.
From there I wanted to get going on a plan, so I did the following.
HCG - 500 units every other day to try and stimulate natural test
Anastrozole 0.2mg 2x/wk
DHEA 5mg every day
Natural blend they called adrenal calm to help with low adrenals
Multi V and B & D
I did that for about 6 weeks and got labs redone. Test was up to about 670, VD was still low. From there I was still not feeling great so I went ahead and took a different route with the below plan which I am currently on week 2:
Test Enanthate 200mg/ml / week
Vit D 0.5mlweek
HCG 500units 2x/week (the two days before test)
Anastrozole 0.25mg x3/week
BPC- 157 0.15mg 2x daily
DHEA 5mg every day
Collagen powder
Natural blend they called adrenal calm to help with low adrenals
BCAA's and a few other natural supplements to support healing, adrenals and hormones
Multi V and B & D
My main focus is to get energy back and feel healthy and my age again. I feel like I was in a whole and just need a little help getting out of. Overall diet is good (meaning clean foods), and I've starting cardio and lifting again. I plan to take diet and exercise as a main priority now as well, and would like to lean out and gain strength as additional items
I feel slightly better, probably a combination but the exercise def helps! I just don't want to risk any long-term health issues, and would also like your all's input on what I am currently doing. I know I should have came here first, but I'm only two weeks in so not too late. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
