Could this be a placebo effect. I have low testosterone too. I've been doing "natural" ways by changing diet, cardio/weights, sleeping in a lot, trying to have sex regularly. But my numbers just don't seem to budge.
I think my only options now are TRT or just accept and make peace with it. If I do TRT, my impression is that you have stay on it for life. I am not sure i am ready for that kind of commitment.
- fnordpiglet 4y agoSee my reply above about clomiphene citrate. I had that same worry. While I still take it I could stop at any time and my body will produce testosterone naturally. TRT is castrating and there are medical alternatives that work.
- DamnYuppie 4y agoI 100% feel you as the fear of having to do it forever was a big hold up for me as well. The reality is you can stop whenever you want you will just go back to having less energy etc. Having done it I can see myself doing it until my late 50's at which point I should have the majority of my adventuring done as well as be out of the workforce so I will probably not be too concerned about lack of energy.

- blindmute 4y agoOnce you experience a normal level of testosterone, you would not consider for a moment returning to "baseline". The commitment would be like your commitment to having a roof.
