HRT/TRT Anonymous
Sup /fit/
Amature bodybuilder here, I have been lifting and working out for 6 years now. Off season and all carb bloated I can tip the scale at 280. I am 6'5 so that really isn't that much, but during contest I can suck weight to about 245 - 250. I tend to not dry out enough usually. Regardless, I just got back from my doctor and have always had problems maintaining mass and dieting for a competition. I found out, that I have terribly low testosterone. They are sending me to an endocrinologist for some HRT/TRT. Anyone on here that is already on such a regimine?

In other words, steroids srs bznss

im not on doc prescribed TRT, but im working on getting on. It really makes a ton of difference in how your able to train and hold onto mass. Do you have a copy of your blood tests, or could you post results

Was the doctor able to determine your dangerously low testosterone levels through a blood test, or just looking at your pea-sized testies?

Any bodybuilder above 6'0" is probably going to fail at bodybuilding.

Free Testosterone - 1.4 pg/ml
Total Testosterone - 46 ng/dl
For a male in my age bracket I should have in the range of 9.3 - 26.5 pg/ml Free Testosterone, and 241 - 827 ng/dl Total Testosterone.

As for testes size, I have adult male sized testes, they just don't produce,

I have actually been on anti-depressants and anti-anxiety pills for a long time now. The doctors are actually happy to see that the low test will help ease a lot of that and may actually get me off the medications.

Yea but sadly the HRT dosage is no where near what man of my bber buddies take. A standard HRT dose is somewhere ~250mg per every 10 - 14 days. Most of my very extreme friends will do upwards of a 1g every 7 days. Along with a slew of other compounds.

All in all, it is just going to be nice to not have to bust my ass 5x more than most guys just to maintain. I never overtrain, but I sometimes get damned close due to being SOL in the test department.
