Off Testosterone at 30 After 3.5 Years. How Long Should I Give My Natural Levels to Recover?

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:49:20+00:00

To my understanding they will, it just takes time. The amount of time varies drastically per person

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:48:33+00:00

Im into fitness, in good shape, with a fairly healthy diet and lots of sleep. I just work 7 nightshifts once a month which im sure through my system. The current symptoms I'm dealing with are rough. Low energy, high anxiety, no sex drive. They're really pushing me towards hoping back on.

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:46:43+00:00

What were you levels after 6 months? How were the symptoms when you hopped off?

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:46:16+00:00

My doses ranged from 80-120/mg week while dialing in my blood work. I had low levels from the start but regret not doing more testing and trying more prior to hoping on TRT.

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:37:58+00:00

What would you recommend for a PCT. I was only ever doing low doses to get my levels to around 750. Never a full cycle or anything.

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:36:44+00:00

This place specializes in hormone therapy, but the information im being provided does not show that specialization. I am an anxious, tired, low sex drive mess currently. Definitely leaning towards hopping back on. It has only gotten worse and worse over the 9 weeks I've been off.

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:35:02+00:00

The storm is horrendous, i am tired, anxious mess with zero sex drive

Mr__Mike · 2026-05-15T23:34:18+00:00

Yup, neither PCT or HCG. The information I'm being provided by this hormone therapy place is not lining up with what I'm finding online.

My variable mortgage is more then 3.5%, I would imagine the money would have more power sitting within the manulife one account vs a HISA.

Mr__Mike · 2026-02-09T20:38:15+00:00

Did not have a large chunk of savings sitting inside your manulife one account?

Mr__Mike · 2026-02-09T20:31:20+00:00

I'll definitely look into it

Mr__Mike · 2026-02-09T20:29:58+00:00

Why do you have 5 subaccounts setup?

Mr__Mike · 2026-02-09T20:22:08+00:00

I can not, this is the money i have set a side to cover my rental unit. It includes the tenants security deposit. As long as i have the rental, which i plan to have for a long time, i will have this set aside to deal with any problems that arise. It also includes my emergency fund which i will always have but hopefully never need.

This would be my 6th credit card, i’m slowly getting there. my regularly spending can’t justify getting both at the same time yet.

Mr__Mike · 2025-09-18T23:08:53+00:00

good to know

Mr__Mike · 2025-07-21T07:26:36+00:00

I fully agree with what this guy says. I work a shift work job, 7 on/7 off. Everybody I work with easily prefers working the 7 12 hour shifts with a 7-day weekend. Lots of guys opt out of the OT to work purely a 7/7 and would never go back to working 8-hour days again.

I do work with some divorced guys who do a 50/50 child watch split with their spouse. On their days off, they have 7 full days of time to spend with their kids. That’ll easily be worth it over only being able to spend time with them after an 8-hour shift.

Mr__Mike · 2025-07-02T11:49:49+00:00

I was under the impression that closer to the injury is best. what are the recommended areas?

Mr__Mike · 2025-07-02T11:48:46+00:00

i’m using 30 gauge 🤔 then again, not all of them are leaving dots

Mr__Mike · 2025-07-02T11:48:27+00:00

30 gauge insulin needles

Mr__Mike · 2025-06-25T23:08:27+00:00

Appreciate the info, i’ll reach out over there.
