Hi Everyone,
As you can see from my posts, I am concerned about going on TRT, even though I want to get back on it. I could use advice. At least from the evidence, I am thinking I may not need it.
1. I am 33 years old. My fasting levels in the morning have always been around 300 - 320.
2. Although my testosterone levels have always been low for my age, I never had sexual function problems, (erectile) problems, etc.
3. I have always had a hard time with training. I trained hard but still did not gain muscle and strength as rapidly as my friends, and have a harder time losing fat. I often get iron-deficiency anemia, even though I eat enough beef. Maybe these things are related to low-T levels, maybe it has nothing to do with low-T.
4. I always had the option of being prescribed testosterone. I tried androgel in the past, as well as was legally given anabolic steroids when I live in other countries where they are legal.
I did not notice anything overtly dysfunctional about testosterone usage, even though my bloodwork changes in LH and FSH.
However, even with 5mg of oxandrolone, or those pro-hormones that were popular ten years ago such as the real Halodrol-50 or clones, other people saw roid rage, needy behavior, lack of inhibtions, etc.
Most of the time, I actually felt more vital, stronger, more energy to exercise, etc. But, for some reason, it would cause dysfunction such as roid rage out of nowhere. It was as if I had less filter to just walk away.
The hardest part was simply the unpredictability of it. Most times I would be very functional, but sometimes I was not.
5. A doctor did prescribe me Nebido, but I am afraid that it may cause negative side effects for me.
6. Is it true that if I get on it, because it is a three month dose, then I cannot stop side effects? (At least with Oral formulations, etc. they are out of your system so quickly that it does not cause problems).
7. Do you think I should take it or not? I am guessing not.
I should say that I have spent a lot of time in the gym, I know a fair amount about resistance training, eating well, etc. The problem is not those areas.
