TRT has ruined pound town
43 yo in relatively good health. 5’9 160 lbs and active. A friend recommended looking into TRT after we discussed some fatigue and anxiety issues and I took a look into having some bloodwork done to see if anything was off and the only thing out of range was my Testosterone level at 217. I talked to my primary, and they did not seem very concerned as it wasn’t causing any major issues. I definitely noticed a lack of libido, but other than that everything still worked. I went and talked to a doctor at a men’s clinic. He ran some more test (results below) and said I was a candidate for TRT therapy. I just started week four. I have noticed an improvement with my mood, general anxiety, boost in confidence and my libido has skyrocketed. Now the only problem with that is I’ve developed ED. At best I can get 70% and I can never finish. Before I was borderline premater. Doctor said that’s not common but we need to wait another couple weeks to recheck my panels. Has anyone on here recovered from that or am I doomed? Did Joe Rogan steer me wrong? Total T 217 LH 2.9 FSH 2.1 Estradiol <5.0 Prostrate 1.7 Edit - I apologize as I didn’t have the dosage available. This is a learning process for me. I’m on 160 weekly with no AI. I spoke with the Dr. and he is going to do bloodwork early and possible introduce HCG ,which I believe is an E blocker. He said this isn’t really a common side effect and I should have the opposite issue. Thanks for all the genuine replies.
