Rebounding from antiphsychotic weight gain , what to use

[depressedbruh]

i had depression throughout my teenhood due to my abusive father .. etc.
Doc prescribes me Prozac first , then changes it to Seroquel , In quite high doeses , ive been taking them for a good 4 years ... i took amisulpride last , and then stopped 4 months back since i got better.

The amisulpride made my prolactin levels high and my T Levels were around 220.

A month after i stopped , i felt more energy ... but

its left me with a terrible physique ... currently im 92Kg atm , (height 5'11) ... and with terrible love handles , and BF Of around 35% or more... i started lifting and focusing alot on my diet and workout .. high intensity cardio workout 4 days a week together with weights ... now its been the 5th month , and i hardly see any progress in my BF level , im around 90kg despite the extended cardio and low carb high protein diet ... its making me depressed.... ive tried taking lipo 6 black .. im 90 now. bench around 60kg atm.

Ive researched on AAS , and i hope you guys gimme ur opinion ... if you were in my situation , what would you cycle? should i go with clen to help me with the fat loss and love handles? or since my T levels are low should i do Maybe test , or dbol ?

Thnx in advance bruhs.

Since your T levels are down I would I focus on fixing that.
Two approaches;
1) try to increase natural production
2) go with testosterone/TRT

But it depends, how old are you?
Do you have the means to freeze your sperm if you want kids down the line?
Talk to your doc, check total testosterone and free testosterone along with LH, FSH & SHBG.
If your low your doctor should help you out. (I know some don't, but if he won't help then what argument does he use?) if you don't agree then change doc.

And for gods sake, never use shit like seroquel again unless you're a schizo. For anxiety and depression there are much better drugs out there!
I mean stay away from all neuroleptic drugs, they are overprescribed 'cause they lack abuse potential but they have side effects, some of which you have discovered. If used, they should only be used short term, or as a last resort when dealing with psychosis & delusions.

thnx for the reply bro . Im 23 yrs this year and i heard trt has a chance of shutting natural sperm production completely , i would'nt really want that to happen right now though :/ .
i would never take any of those drugs again , they've left me in a bit of a worse situation right now , ppl make fun of me cuz the love handles .. ..

these are my results 4 months back...

Cortisol : 554.1
FSH : 1.58
Prolactin : 116.80
Testosterone(total) : 220
Free T4 : 1.33
LH : 3.07

at the time my doctor suggested to stop taking amisulpride.. thats all he said...
should i run a new test , maybe try TRT? would clomid help sperm prod. ?
thnx man .

Oh shit, please post those numbers again with denominations. Need to know how it's measured.
Those values seem to point to pituitary problems if the measurement is what I'm used to.

 

[DocToxin8]

What does the lab test say, is it measured in IU/L for LH & FSH?
What about the total testosterone?

I'll guess and say it's IU/L for LH & FSH, which means that while they are within normal range, they are low when seen compared to the testosterone level.
Have you checked estrogen?

Cortisol: 554.1 mol/L
FSH : 1.58 IU/ml
LH : 3.07 IU/ml
prolactin : 116.80 ng/mL
Testosterone(Total) : 2.20 ng/ml
Free T4 : 1.33 ng/dl

sorry about not posting the denominations .. my bad.. . and estrogen , nope , but .. i do have a bit of gyno , and my lower body weight is not proportional to the upper body either.....

 

[DocToxin8]

Glancing at the numbers I wonder if I miscalculate some conversions. Can you post the stated reference ranges on the tests?
I see free testosterone is indeed low, even under 2,9ng/ml

I think you would be a solid candidate for TRT

 

[DocToxin8]

With such a low total testosterone you'll end up depressed, fat, fatigued and a very high increase of heart attack/disease.
So you need to do something.
SERMs like clomid may increase test by increasing LH, (are you sure those LH values ain't IU/L? ) but I think you'll need testosterone replacement.

Fertility is an issue, but with the proper therapy of hCG & maybe even HMG it usually goes well.
And if the alternative is low testosterone levels from age 23 then the improvement in quality of life should outweigh the risks IMO.
