I went cold turkey this week on the
TRT after 10 months on. At various points along the way I've been doing 10g
Androgel, 20mg Nolva, 50mg Zinc and 20mg Lasix everyday. Started to feel bad...fatigued, muscle aches and sleepy during daytime. At first I thought it was the Nolva, since it was the newcomer to the mix. That appears not to be true.
Since my
DHT levels have soared way above normal, I thought the most logical thing to drop in an effort to see if I feel better was the
Androgel.
Hackskii asked about going cold turkey with rasin nuts. That what I'm doing, The only thing I'm taking now is the Nolva and Lasix.
I can confirm other post in this thread indicating improved night time wood while on the Nolva alone. Will give the jury a bit of time to see if the nuts are recovering. They didn't shrink overnight so I don't expect them to recover over night.
But what about long term? I'm thinking about the possiblity of starting a routine of
test injections (in an effort to avoid elevated
DHT) on an IRREGULAR schedule. Everyone talks about the roller coaster effect of rising and falling
test levels. I'm thinking I can endure the perils of falling levels in order to enjoy the benfits of rising levels. I believe SWALE stated that the high you get from initially starting
TRT is due to rising levels. (And
starting my
TRT program was really sweet for me.) Maybe an irregular routine will keep the nuts on notice that they have to pull some of the weight, too.
Sorry for the long post. Feel free to let me know if you think my brain is matching my rasins, size for size
Hope this is not too much off topic.
