Everything came back normal except for my testosterone levels. They came in at 95! So I have a appointment set up to hopefully get myself straightened out. I have never done anything to suppress my levels so I guess I'm just getting old (36).

Ouch… time to blast test into the super physiological range. Just my opinion.😀

95 is insane for your age? You’ve never taken any kind of hormones or sarms?

I had those levels in my 20s. TRT will be a game changer. Be ready for a huge improvement to quality of life, energy, sleep, health, and GAINS!

Mid 30’s now and so glad I’ll be on TRT for life. Everyone else falling apart as they age… I’m just getting more swole and have more energy than the kiddos have. Test is best.

Just wait after TRT is dialed in before adding/blasting to protocol.

Also, make sure doc is cool with self administration and isn’t recommending you pin Test C every 2 weeks or some shit. I do E3d combining IM and sub-q. Keeps those levels consistent with less peaks and valleys.

GL and keep us updated fam.

Yeah. Just go to the doc, show bloods, and hop on TRT. Most GPs will start you up with levels like that. Find another GP if yours is dragging their feet.

I have a decent cycle just waiting to do. I just wanted to see where I was at. I honestly wasn't expecting that at all. But I have been struggling in the gym for the past few months. And my sleep has been shit. Absolutely no motivation, and when you're a flat rate technician that hurts lol. I have 5 bottles of test c 250/10. Im just waiting on November when cheerleading is over and I can dedicate 5 days a week to the gym instead of 3-4. Plus now if I can get trt prescribed that would be perfect

Man you are going to feel like a completely new person when you get on TRT. 200mg a wk would be a total game changer.

If you can get it prescribed you won`t be able to run the test you have this year because you will have to get a lot of blood work to dial your trt dose in. Good news is though that the test you have on hand is not going anywhere and it`s there when you can run it.

Make sure they will do bi-weekly injections or weekly at the very least. I would not even try the stupid every other week thing some doctors prescribe. All they have to do is look at the half life/active life of Test Cyp to know that is a terrible idea but yet multiple doctors still do it.

Plus now by needing TRT you won`t have to do PCT (post cycle therapy) because you will be on TRT :)

Yeah, definitely get checked out with a doc. I'm pushing 50 and my score was 180ish...but that's probably due to aging. You might have some other underlying reason that can cause worst things than low T.

The air is sprayed regularly, there is wifi & cell radiation everywhere, the food is garbage and much of it is packaged in endocrine disrupting plastics, many common script meds lower test, and most people have multiple nutrient deficiencies because there is very little nutrition in common foods.
95, at 36??? ... this shit is getting scary.
Get test and do your own trt.

Not knowing your history I think some of us are wondering wht's up with that low test. So many things can influence the levels. past blast/cruise, use etc. Plus some SSRIs and other psychoactive drugs for depression, PTSD, anti psychotics etc, most of the meds prescribed for psych indications crush hormones. If you would please share your history. It could be informative for the restof us. Most of us here end up on TRT. It didn't happen to me until my mid 50s but I was lucky even though I cycled on and of for many years. my T also snapped back.

I take lamotrigine for bi polar disorder. Never really looked into its effects. Before that I was on lithium and depakote which really sucked. I take a multivitamin, fish oil and vitamin d with a magnesium supplement daily. I do take trazadone to sleep on most days. If not I just lay there l. I'll have to see if these cause any issues with test levels.

It's honestly been shit here lately. I have also been "fixed" lol. Idk if that effects hormone levels are not.
It does not.

Those medications on the other hand could be causing some issues. Most people don't realize the effects a lot of medications have on hormone levels and regulation. Prime example (i know you are not on this) is that there is data to confirm that long time metforman usage can decrease Natural (not exogenous) testosterone levels by up to 50%. I'd bet money no ones doctor is like hey BTW this medication for your diabetes can potentially cut your testosterone in half.

SSRIs raise Prolactin levels which plays a role in how they can kill male libido. Prolactin raises after you get off and it's why you can't get off again right away to put that in perspective

I constantly battle prolactin levels. I just recently learned the drug to help treat prolactin cabergoline helps raise dopamine levels. That's when I realized I party way too much. I'm not on any meds that suppress dopamine but I drink a lot of red wine. Sometimes take mushrooms and other fun drugs. I have over stimulates my dopamine much like taking testosterone your body slows down production.Even as I type this my nipples have slight gyno and my labido is none existent. When I asked my endocrinologist to prescribe me caber, he said no I told him I was going through a lot of stress in my personal life and this could be the reason in low dopamine. My Endocrinologist made me get blood work and then make an appointment. It is frustrating no haveing your labido. And even more frustrating waiting for the medication to help you get it back. Also when my prolactin is high not even Viagra works to restore it.

Trazadone side effects in part. See link for full list.

  • sexual problems in males; decreased sex drive, inability to get or keep an erection, or delayed or absent ejaculation
  • sexual problems in females; decreased sex drive, or delayed orgasm or unable to have an orgasm
Sounds like a hormone disrupter to me.

💯 Couldn't be more accurate. I'm 38 now and my free T was low, estradiol high, got on 200 mg Test C injecting 3x week. That was 7 months ago and my life has completely changed. In addition I started eating right and built a small home gym with just a bench, adj dumbbells, kettlebells, and get it 6 days a week. The transformation is almost unreal, everyone at work keeps asking what I'm doing. I tossed in some nandrolone a month ago and started blasting (700 Test-C, 400 Deca, .25 arimidex eod) so now progress is just stupid lol.

I was originallt skeptical that low dose Test would make a big difference; wouldn't everyone be doing it? I'm convinced that in 20 years hormone therapy and peptides will be mainstream for improving quality of life and longevity.
