Had a friend that got the pellets and started bleeding that afternoon at work. I like the injections. TLAT Ms Lithium gives me injections and I should go in once a month

Definitely injections. Don't mess around with all that other stuff.

Does taking Testosterone reduce the body’s ability to produce it naturally.


I'm about to start a TRT cycle using Test-E. From my understanding when someone starts taking test, the body stops producing it. Recovery of natural test can take months to years to return.

Yes

If you genuinely need TRT it doesn't matter if you quit producing it because you weren't producing enough of it in the first place.

If you're young and want more test just for gains in the gym etc. then its definitely something to consider. If you're older or have medical problems and not producing enough of it anyways it shouldn't matter.

Keep your arse clean with baby wipes, give them security and stability ... the rest you'll figure out over time. Bang'em like hooers in private, treat'em like queens in public, you'll do fine.

Testosterone is a funny thing. You go bald because of the overproduction of the male hormone Testosterone. That's a fact. Sebleebiumousnonomous or something like that builds up on the roots. It means you're more advanced than most on the evolutionary scale. Use it to ypur advantage. Women love assurance and confidence and fearlessness.


This sounds like something a support group for bald men would all tell each other

Nah. I still value my hair.

Tried the trt injections a couple of years ago and the very first thing I noticed was how much faster both my hairline started receding and my crown started thinning. I looked like I aged 15 years in 6 months. Got off the trt and i’ve managed to hang on to my hair.

Edited to add: Some guys are fortunate to have a nice symmetrical bald head. I’m not one of them. Lol Mine has to stay covered with hair as long as possible.

When you start taking this stuff do you have to continue to take it the rest of your life? Like do your nuts shut off and you are relying upon injections or whatever to produce testosterone?

First, make sure you're going to a physician who was actually trained to do this.


Is this generally a urologist?

For those that did it, what were your symptoms and where did you first go? General practitioner or straight to a T-Clinic?

I had monthly injections for over ten years, doctor recently switched to a gel that I rub into my shoulder/bicep every morning. Years ago topical ointments were really thick and difficult to work with. What I have currently is about the consistency of hand sanitizer, and it rubs in easily. I can't speak to pellets, not familiar with that. I will say that prior to the injections I felt tired all the time. Not depressed or sad, just had no energy so I had no motivation to really do anything but go through the motions. After I started injections I felt 100% better, same with the gel. Seemed like this started for me at or around age 40. I highly recommend it for those considering it but aren't sure.

You can take meds to jumpstart your testicles so to speak to start producing testosterone again.

But why?

Weekly to bi weekly injections is a small price to pay to have your levels optimized

based on the half life you should be on weekly injections at a minimum with 2x per week being best. 300mg every two weeks is huge swings, huge
