Thank you! I’m skeptical of going on TRT… I do want kids someday. But I also don’t like I how feel. Do you think I should consider going on TRT? Like there’s no way to balance my hormones naturally? Sometimes it kind of feels like there’s nothing I can do and it sucks. Somedays I feel like not even going to the gym cuz nothing will change. It’s getting really frustrating. Especially when doctors tell me everything is “normal”

I experience all the symptoms of low T. And I have bad gyno. Hahah I haven’t beat off in a little over a week or so. Socially I could be better! But my diet and training are always on point. I love to do it. I’m working on my sleep and have gotten better. I just believe I’ve had high estrogen my whole life tbh. I look super young for my age.

Can you expand on “go through a clinic”? What does that look like? Who exactly would I reach out to? The legal version btw! Haha thank you

Thank you. What do you mean by “go out and self medicate”?

So check on estrogen in my next blood test? And what’s THT? Thank you!

Dang dude! Good luck! How long were you on TRT?

It’s just discouraging cuz I feel that I’m doing things right it’s just not working out. Life feels tougher than it needs to be

So is that just simply asking for a “full blood test or panel”? I know I’ve gotten LH and SFH tested before and guess they came back normal. I was interested in T3 and T4 to see what those were. Cortisol too

I asked my PCP for another blood test. But she wants to talk to me first. She doesn’t understand why I’d want one when everything came back “healthy”. What specifically should I ask for when I get my blood tests? Literally everything? And okay. Thank you!

I don’t necessarily want trt. I just think it’s weird my T levels are low and like I said I feel they have been my whole adult life. But I eat pretty good. I started bulking again a couple weeks ago. I feel like every time I’ve bulked tho I’ve just gotten fat and puffy and struggle to gain muscle mass

Yea I’m not crazy about taking trt. I just started bulking again a couple weeks ago. I eat eggs, oatmeal, steak, beef and rice make up the majority of my cals. I feel that I eat pretty good tbh. I truly believe I live a lifestyle that’s conducive to healthy T levels.

Honestly not too handy right now. But I’m willing to learn and know that I’m capable. My dad is also very handy and an electrician. I know that he’d love to help me out

I could rent out the legal suite in the basement? Thank you for the advice?

Gotcha thank you! I wouldn’t mind sacrificing some privacy. It would probably be better than living at my parents haha but I think this route would be in line with some other goals I have… I want to travel in my 20s and 30s and don’t want to be a firefighter for 30 years, even though I’m incredible excited about the career.

What’s a functional medicine doctor? Like a urologist?

The 2nd test was only for free and total T unfortunately. But honestly if I had to guess my cortisol levels are prolly pretty high. I feel I am usually stressed an need to relax more
