I have my varicocele venogram and additional embolization (second operation) arranged for 20th of march. I am hoping that after this operation my testicles will be capable of working properly or at least a bit better than before. To keep thing's simple, there is still some "back flow" of blood going back into the testicles, thus over-heating and blocking up the cells (leydig, sperm production, tiny vessels, etc). Either way i am going to need to run
HCG to see if they respond to stimulation and increase in size. Running
HCG alone after the operation would be stupid so i am going to run
TRT + HCG, but haven't decided on which protocol to use. I am leaning towards 10G's of
androgel daily + HCG every 3rd day at 250iu a time. I don't really want to go higher than 250iu so i control E2 better.They have shrunk noticably since before they were "normal" (my urologist told me not to say "atrophied" because the actual "meat" of the testicle is fine according to him and my nut's are simply shrunk due to bad sperm production). Ironically even though i have been on
TRT for 2 months now, my testicles haven't changed at all in size (according to ultrasound scan) so that can only be a good thing. I am hoping i can recover some (if not all) natural
testosterone after this second operation. finger's crossed!
I have been on 2 tubes of
androgel daily for the past 2 months and some day's are better than others, however in general libido is bad, erections poor most of the time (and require heavy stimulation) and joints/muscles hurting. I am visiting my anti-aging doctor soon to get thing's checked out and a full blood profile done while on androgel. I will post my results when i get them (i will be starting a "restart diary/log" on meso soon).
Because i am in the UK the options for T injections are
testosterone enthanate or testosterone
sustanon. Don't think
test cyp is available here (however
test e is very similar i have heard?). I want to use anything between 100, 125 or 150mg of testosterone a week (since the amples come in 250mg in the UK, using 125 a week seems logical). I have heard of guy's using 100mg and feeling increadable (some even mentioned removing ALL symptoms in a matter of weeks and getting perfect, efortless erections back, etc). So this would be ideal if it work's out well.
Because everyones experiences are changing daily regarding HRT, i am intrested in hearing personal experiences of guy's that switched from cream, gels or orals to Injections and how they got on. I am also intrested in hearing about your current HRT regiem (Which AI, Suppliments and HCG dosages) and generally how you would consider your lifestyle/progress.
Thanks again for all the support guys! I am going to kick this low t stuff right in the butt
