Feeling Great 1 Month In

Seems like more people post about issues so I wanted to share my experience after 1 month of TRT.

Background: 36 year old male, in decent shape, working out almost every day but struggling to retain/gain muscle mass. Chronic fatigue, depression, GAD, low libido, etc. Tried meditation, Wellbutrin, Prozac, but just kept feeling like I wasn’t firing on all cylinders.

Got my labs and saw total test 441ng/dL, free at 6.5ng/dL, and SHBG at 54. Primary care doc didn’t want to do anything about it, so I went to TRT Nation a few months later. Those later labs from Labcorp showed even lower total T at 394ng/dL. After a month of 200mg/wk testosterone cypionate + HCG (want to have kids in a couple years), I’m finally feeling really good. Motivation to work is way up, feeling like I want to hit the gym hard, libido is way up (sex is fantastic), and depression is gone. Stopped the Prozac a week or so in as it didn’t feel like it was needed.

We’ll see how things progress, but it feels like T was the missing piece.
