I am going to begin Testosterone Replacement Therapy with an injectable. I was on andro gel for awhile, but discontinued about 5 months ago when my baby was born. It is easily transfered and myself and my wife thought it was best to dicontinue.
I just gor my test levels checked and they are 50ng/dl, and my doc finally is giving the thums up on IM treatment with testosterone, though he said I would only need a shot once a month. I feel that is totally too little too far apart.
I have not talked to him just yet to decide cource of action, but I plan to request at least 100mg-150mg weekly. I am not out of line in requseting this am I?
Do any of you who are on TRT or anybody else have a preferance for Depo-Testosterone® (testosterone cypionate) by Pharmacia Corporation or Delatestryl® (testosterone enanthate ) by BTG Pharmaceuticals ?
I also would like advise on how to get an anti-E like armidex. When I asked about it whe he prescibed the androgel he said that is not needed!
Also, ,I thought I may be able to get an oral in conjunction ot the Im depot's. Maybe Halo or anavar. [no asking for source information please] he is just my family physician, shoudl I ask too start TRT then get a referral to an endo doc?
Is it possible to get GH levels checked? I would liek ot get a script fot hgh as well! though that might be pushing it, lol.
Thanx in advance for any help! this is needed to improve the quality of my life!
