Belly Fat Gain on TRT with normal Estradiol Levels

[Stephen31201]

I could really use some insight. I have been on TRT for 31 years. I know, that is a crazy long time. My problem is that on TRT I gain and hold on to belly fat. Without TRT (and horrible test levels) I can lose it. The only other way I have got rid of it is through the carnivore diet. I have been to specialist from NC to Texas with no luck. Regardless of caloric intake and exercise it will not go away. Estradiol, cortisol and every other test we can think of shows normal. I have used estrogen blockers to take my level to almost zero with still no luck. Has anyone else faced this issue?

That is certainly a long time.. sounds like you’ve done some investigating.. There are some brains here hopefully they come along I’ve only heard the opposite of trt.. ruling out E2 ect. Could this be genetic Thyroid issue that is brought to light through the cascade of stuff that happens when you add your TRT..

So 31yrs, Why TRT in 1995 as in, were you Low test at a young age, was there a head injury?
