So I made a real effort to see if I could stop TRT

[BLTC]

I get a phlebo about every 3 months and a CBC.

Can i ask whty the phlebo? Aren't you concerned about iron/ferritinl levels getting low?

Finally found a good doc that does not do me like a T clinic that costs $200 a month. Gave me a script for this. $10 for 3 month supply so about 100 mg wk. Happy with this.

The doc was to the point and direct. Show me the clean baby, not the bath water. he looked at my labs, I explained all the symptoms of low T and I thought we were done. He checked the ole twig and berries and then the dreaded finger up the poop shoot. he simply said assume the position and told me to relax. then he hit the hole like a Michael Jordan dunk in his prime. My O-ring exploded with discomfort. Then that finger grinding on my prostate. LK, ....I now know I cannot be gay, sorry.

he pulled his befouled finger out of my poop chute, took off the gloves and threw a box of tissues on the bed in front of me as I tried to catch my breath, pants around my ankles. I could not make eye contact after that.

But to my relief he said i am going to prescribe you test as I wiped my lubed up asshole and tried to be dignified but there was no dignity left. He went over the gels and pellets and recommended the shots. Worth it I guess. And I am glad my nuts and prostate are good too.

Being off pretty much all of 2026 I was gonna try for 6 months but do not feel great, loosing mass, NO LIBIDO, and cannot sleep. Test helps me sleep so much better. I bet 100 mg a wk will feel like rocket fuel after the receptors have been voided for so long.

That's a good starting point. You may need a dosage tweak, you may not. Just have to see where you level out after a few months.

I prefer to inject 2x per week, some guys
prefer micro dosing, some swear by once per week week.

I think you'll definitely feel better. I felt like tired death before I started TRT long ago.
