Who here does testosterone hormone therapy?

Tell me about your experience. I got my blood drawn today to check my levels. Looking forward to the results. Hoping for higher day to day energy levels in general once I start treatment. Any help in the weight room would just be a bonus.

I do but my body stopped producing completely after being low for a few years. Year long bout of fertility treatment caused my hypothalomus to not tell my pitutary gland to produce it.
I was below 300ng/dl before the treatment(about average for a 65 year old) and after i was at 80ng/dl essenitally the same as a 100 year old male at only 32. Having a vercosile in my left testicle also did not help at all.
My levels now on the treatment are only in the mid 600 to low 700 though so about average for my age(34).
I do the shots, twice a week 70mg per shot so about .37ml. Honestly it sucks. I have to give them to myself as my doctor is in houston. I usually end up combining into one shot but again it sucks doing shots so often and I usually dont mind it. But I am usually sore for a day or two at the injection site and again it sucks.
Now i have a ton more energy. I was doing nothing but sleeping before. Also my libido is great now after being almost non existent for like a year. I feel great and make decent progress in the gym for somebody my age. But if I had the choice, i would much prefer to not have to do it.

If looking into TRT Google Dr. Rand McLain, the guy has a series of Q&A's on YouTube. Dr. Rand works with a ton of world-class bodybuilders and athletes as well as non-athletes and is very knowledgable on the subjects of TRT, steroids, peptides, HGH and other related topics. Use him and other resources available on the internet to arm yourself with as much knowledge as possible before moving forward.

True story. Bout 15 years ago, Jimmy Ott hung up on me for asking "why do you keep referring to Barry Bonds' steroid use as illegal? It's a controlled substance not illegal." Now they peddling that shite like it's amway

Be very careful if you chose to start that treatment. Testosterone is not to be played with. There is a very good chance that over time your body will stop producing it altogether. Make sure to get annual prostate exams as well as your chance for cancer will go up.
I had the opportunity to go on it but after doing a lot of research decided it would be easier to start exercising regularly. Now my testosterone levels are right where they should be.

Not true if you stay within normal range.
and you go on test because your body has stopped producing. At least TRT from a doctor.
