Testosterone replacement

Before just jumping on TRT change you nutrition, sleep and workout routine for about 1-2 months first.

Make sure you are getting enough fats and cholesterol in your diet, they are REQUIRED for making test. Minimum 7hrs of sleep and off days from the gym for recovery and test production. Supplements to boost your overall health and can aid Test levels slightly. Vit D, Zinc, Melatonin for deeper sleep, protein powder and BCAA for muscle growth and recovery as well.

If you still come back low then do some TRT, but know it does effect fertility, so if thats a concern look at HCG as well.

My numbers were similar to yours. I've been on TRT for a year now. It's a lifelong thing once you start. I mean you can stop, but you will go back to the same shitty levels again. /r/testosterone is the place to learn all about TRT. You need a lot more labs done other than total testosterone to get a good picture of your hormones, but if your total T is that low then something is up for sure.

I wrote some stuff the last time this was asked a few days ago.

This shit is asked every few days. Maybe scroll down and do some basic work.

That number could easily vary that much from day to day. I've been on TRT for 2 years. I don't know if I really needed it, but I wanted it and I'm still glad I did it. I saw progress in the gym at 40 I didn't see in my twenties...

Your gym numbers sound pretty good, I doubt you have low T. If your a gym rat, you could easily burn up your T and your results would be low for a given test.

How's your libido? Concentration? Erection?

I have been on TRT for almost two years. I highly recommend it. I am doing weekly injections of testosterone cypionate. Once you get used to it, it is quick and easy. Ignore this babble about how it's a "lifetime commitment". Five minutes a week, big deal. You'll spend much more of your lifetime brushing your teeth and wiping your ass, and presumably you're OK with those lifetime commitments. Far better to spend the rest of your lifetime feeling good due to one injection a week than to spend the rest of your lifetime feeling shitty.

My numbers were that low, 209, 221, and 197 I think were my 3 tests.

It changed my life and sent my libido into orbit. Put 15 pounds on me in about 20 weeks. My endocrinologist had me on as high as 200mg a week.

Do it, I can't up sell it enough.

Really accelerated my hair loss though. I shave it now and embrace the baldness.

Why not work a while at raising it naturally? I've gone from the middle 300's to over 600 in about six months.

See an endochronologist not a GP. If something else is out of wack (thyroid, adrenal gland, etc) fixing that and then jumpstarting your nuts with Clomiphene may be in order instead of TRT.

You lucky bastard. If you have health insurance those worthless testicles of yours just got you a cheap lifetime supply of 100 mg of pharmaceutical grade testosterone cypionate taken by intramuscular injection every 3.5 days for the rest of your life.

/r/testosterone

Your levels are extremely low, this is not an “anti-aging” or “life extension” issue, it’s a medical issue. Find out why it’s low. You might have mechanical issues with your testes; you might have a pituitary tumor. Lack of testosterone will impair normal physiological functions.

Find out what’s wrong and treat it.

Personally, the doc could not find any specific reason why my test was low, but TRT has been a godsend, been on for two years. It’s easy, it helps me look awesome, it is like a +2 OI shot, and I have no regrets.
