I figured I would post up some pics showing my TRT journey.
This is what 250 mg of Sustanon per week administered in office put me at:
I must say, I felt pretty damn good at this level but all good things must come to an end.
When my work situation changed, and I could no longer make it to the TRT clinic once per week, he put me on a mix of Enanthate (260 mg) and Proprionate (100 mg) every other week. This was the result of that cluster ten days post injection:
That lab result was literally three months after the first one that I posted. I also wonder what four more days would have looked like because I was on a hero to zero type feeling with my mood, and energy levels. Two days prior to injection, I swear I was feeling WORSE than I did prior to beginning TRT and considered stopping all together.
He also managed to do this to my estradiol, which caused me to find another doctor:
The crazy thing is that former doctor kept me at 1 mg of anastrozole per week from the beginning until I left. When I complained about my symptoms, his NP and PA told me to up that dose even more without taking any additional blood work. I thought they were idiots and sought out a second opinion from a different doctor!
For the past year, my new doctor has worked with me dial in the protocol.
This was February 2018:
That was the result of 80 mg of cypionate administered 2x per week, 0.25 mg of anastrozole per week, 500 iU of HCG - two injections per week, and 50 mg of DHEA per day.
This was September 2018:
This was the result of 86 mg of cyp 2x per week, the same 500 iU of HCG 2x per week, 0.5 mg of anastrozole per week, and 25 mg of DHEA per day. I wish the doctor would prescribe 1 ml per week.
So, prior to beginning this journey, I was sleeping 12+ hours per day, had no energy, no motivation, and couldn't lose any fat, despite diet and exercise. When I lost weight, I lost strength, which made me believe my body chose to drop muscle instead of fat due to being in a low-t and hypothyroid state. From a mental aspect, it literally felt like i was in a fog. I couldn't concentrate for anything which is totally uncharacteristic for me. I was just stuck in a rut, and my GP thought I was depressed and wanted to put me on SSRIs.
Post TRT, I have energy, I only need 6 to 8 hours of sleep per night, and I can lose fat if I eat properly (lol). Mentally, it's like a night and day difference since my creativity has managed to return and I have a desire to learn new skills.
