Age you started HRT?

[Chuckj1973]

New member here, started HRT in January 2013, a few weeks prior to my 40th birthday. Pre TRT test levels were 240 total, can't recall free but it was significantly below the range. I probably could have benefited from it years earlier but hadn't even considered low test as a cause to my symptoms. Anxiety, depression, extreme fatigue are what brought me to the dr. Thought I had lyme's actually, but the dr ran a barrage of tests and it turned out to be low test levels. He put me on 200mg test cyp/ wk and life has never been better. I'm happy, lean, and stronger than I've ever been. Gained 25lbs of muscle, and of my lifts are up, bench went from 185x5 to 295x5, squats from 185x6 to 365x6. I've been considering running a blast cycle but still a bit on the fence. Thanks for allowing me to share my story.

Started at 33. Test was low at 22 dr said it was fine, suffered for years. Should have been treated then.

At age 35 after vasectomy !!!
Suddenly started gaining fat and lost enthusiasm doc said I was at the lower normal range and offered TRT back then it was sust 250 every 3 weeks. It was years later I discovered it was a ASS lol I was on for 18 months then came off got depressed then read up on everything to do with it all and since then I have a better understanding.
Here's the thing though I talked to my doc about the sides etc and he seemed ignorant I asked why my nuts had shrunk etc and he said ur getting older!!! I asked about HCG took him some articles etc he discussed these with an endo and then told me it was all unproven science and not officially recognised!!
Since then I have self medicated and even for a time came off and did an HTPA restart protocol with complete success according to blood results.
I now blast and cruise but it's nice to know I can return to normal if I wish to.
HTPA restart works for some but it aint no fun for the last few weeks.

37. Found an awesome doctor who is very forward thinking. My test was 429. Had naturally high shbg. My doctor prescribed cocktail is test cyp 100_150mg, winstrol 25mg, nandrolone (deca) 50 mg, full cc of b12. Inject every 5-7 days based on feel.

Started @ 200 mg/Wk when I was 21. Had a testicular injury as a kid that left me with sub 300 ng levels when I was 18. Been almost 4 years and I feel like a champ. Low T sucks... especially when you gotta take viagra at 18 LOL!

Don't know how much u like sticking yourself but I found Mon am and thurs pm biweekly injections of 100mg to be better. You do not get as big of a peak release but you do not get a trough either. If I shot once weekly by day 5-6 I could tell my levels were falling. Guys "burn" through test at different rates. By day 6 I was sub 400 from one blood test. Get some winstrol and use a qtr ml with your test. It will keep your shbg below 20 and amplify the test your taking. Watch your estradiol levels. Four years of cyp and no anti estrogen it's gotta be high

don't know where your located, but I have 3 doctors all in network and pay co-pays for everything including HGH. (in Feburary) I get my depo test for 15. and Anavar or Halo 90 day supply for under 35 bucks usually 40 to 60 mg a day. My anti- es are cheap too.

I would definately shop around it seems to get cheaper if you really look. I like you like to keep it legal

I need to live where you do, I am on HRT legal prescription but joints and all that I wish I could get someone that prescribes HGH for less than 350 per month (which isn't as high as I've seen by ANY stretch but that's for 2 IU's twice per week.)
