Or it could simply be reduced stress.
After my second orchiectomy related to cancer, I had to wait several weeks before I could see an endocrinologist about testosterone replacement, so in that time my bioavailable testosterone basically declined to nearly nothing. At one point I became so mellow that stuff that would normally bother me just got ignored. In some ways, it was a kind of a bliss-- I even considered not having testosterone replacement therapy.
That was short lived, however. My endocrinologist told me that I needed testosterone to continue being healthy -- to maintain bone strength, etc., so I ended up doing the TRT.
- sanoli 12y agoVery interesting, thanks. I'm curious though, did your doc bring your levels up to normal range or lower, and did you ever discuss this (keeping the levels lower than normal)?
- slantyyz 12y agoMy levels are still a little lower than normal but from a health and lifestyle perspective, I'm otherwise normal to the point I was before my operation. Because of this, my doctor and I both agreed not have my dosage increased. From my perspective, I just didn't want to use more meds than I need to.
