Post TRT therapy

[nobodyspecial]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been on TRT level dosage for the last two years or so, and decided to come off for various reasons. Lately, it hasn’t been working for me the same. I’ve been tired, no energy to workout, even with 200mg per week of testosterone. The sides seemed to be getting worse and the positive aspects were dwindling.

I got some cytomel t3 and basically I’m considering going on T3 replacement permanently for now instead of testosterone, trying to recover from some of the sides of TRT and get my energy levels back up.

I’m also using some HCG every few days and arimidex or raloxiphene as necessary to manage estrogen, although that hasn’t seemed like much of a problem.

I’m thinking about starting HGH as well for a while, maybe doing up to 4 IU per day plus 100 mcg T3 per day and see how that goes.

Can anyone with more knowledge post some feedback?

T3 doesn't have anything to do with testosterone. There's a high chance you're going to regret getting off Testosterone. Not sure if your body will be able to produce Test on its own. And if you have low Test, T3 and HGH or whatever else won't help.

4 IU a day is good for muscle growth. If you want it as a form of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for health purposes - 2 IU a day is a more suitable dosage.

100 mcg T3 per day

please don't. 100 mcg/day of T3 is a huge dosage.
do you have low levels of T3 naturally? even if you do, 25 mcg/day is a much better starting dosage.
do you have low levels of HGH?

I’m constantly extremely tired and weak. Even on 200 mg/week T I could hardly run on the treadmill for more then 5 minutes lately. It’s like my entire body is breaking down.

I’ve been on 100 mcg T3 for about a month now and I’m only just now getting some more energy again. I went off T maybe 3 weeks ago and I haven’t felt any change yet from that. If anything I’m feeling much better now so I want to keep going.

Actually now I’m thinking about it I’m wondering if I got bunk gear for the last time. I have felt like shit the last 3 months, unable to work out, but the sides were still there. Accelerated hair loss and shrunken testicles.

That’s why I’m trying to recover now. My libedo was totally shot too and even on 20 mg cialis my erections sucked. I got sick with Covid during that time too so many that’s what caused it but shit.. it has really sucked.

I’m trying to get some of my youth and energy back right now more than anything.

Did u get COVID vaccination?

 

[nobodyspecial]

I got two shoots but no booster. The shots I got during the main Covid pandemic. I just recently got Covid a few months ago.

I honestly think you should get bloodwork. Test, estrogen, T3, T4, LH and TSH including all others. It'll help greatly

 

[nobodyspecial]

You are right, I should. But I’m a bit nervous to do so without a dr rx. How do I order blood test personally without going through a dr?

Can labcorp do it? Or is there another?

its easy just go once you get bloods but i would gets bloods after a cruise or blast about 4-6 weeks this way your test levels will be low and you can get a rx for test.

 

[HGH.to]

with the help of private clinics. such as labcorp yeah

If you're not getting TRT from a doctor your gear may just be grapeseed oil.....sounds to me like ending a cycle with no pct. I bet bloods show very low test and your gear is bunk. Probably nothing serious, just crashing.
There are many online blood work companies....just Google and it's easy to find. Simple, just order the test, send in the sample....I get my results in a few days.

That sounds like low hormone levels of both T and E.

If your gear is UGL dosing could be way off, I would personally increase to 300mg and review results. I personally can't go lower than 250mg on my current brand of UGL without getting low E conversion.

After 2 years of trt your balls aren't going to produce a meaningful amount of hormones for a while, I would also be of the opinion that coming off the test would be a mistake.

The come away would be, just take more test until something happens.

Probably not a bad idea....especially if you can get your hands on some prop. or suspension, you'd know pretty quickly.

I’ll get some blood work done this week and see what I’m dealing with. Y’all are probably right.
