Ironat, just curious why is being on trt at 45 ridiculous? I’m 44 and was just prescribed as my test levels are 257 and I’m tired, miserable and feel like shit most the time. I haven’t started it yet as I’m not sure it’s for me as last time I did juice was 18 years ago.
If you have low test does it matter what age you are? My buddy is 31 and he just started it his level was 185.
Readytworoll, welcome. I feel your pain and get what your saying. If I were you I would up the trt to 400 and take 200 eq or just start with adding 200mgs eq and go from there. I loved test and eq many years ago made me strong as a bull. That is some serious sleeper cell shit waiting 11 years ago post haha. Anyways sorry to hear about the dog and relationship so do what makes you happy and if that’s juicing a bit and enjoying what you used to have I say have at it. Good luck. Remember to Give blood on the eq due to hemocrit levels.
It's not ridiculous at all if you really have low T but only a very small % of men really have low T. Something like 3%.
Ready2roll is 45 but has been on TRT for 4 years which makes him 41 when he started. How many 41 year olds really need TRT?
Virtually zero and virtually zero at age 45 also.
What are the odds R2R needs to be on TRT? Virtually zero.
This is not to say he doesn't really need it or that you don't really need it. You may.
Test levels are difficult to measure. Multiple measurements over several weeks are really necessary to accurately measure T levels.
T levels naturally fluctuate widely throughout the day.
Before going on TRT I would analyse your lifestyle. Why do you feel like crap? You probably have legit reasons to feel like crap.
The world is f*cked up. We should all feel crappy. Maybe our job is a grind or our kids are a problem or our wife nags us and looks beat.
Maybe better diet, more sleep, divorcing the wife, proper amount of exercise (not too much, not too little), lowering stress levels somehow (which affect cortisol levels which is catabolic), etc., would make us feel better.
My reply is that R2R has just gone through some very difficult emotional traumas and thinking taking steroids will solve his problems is like thinking drinking booze or getting stoned will solve your problems.
Drugs can't solve your problems.
You take steroids and have bigger muscles but still the same problems.
