old guy 39, starting TRT

Howdy everyone!

Thank you everyone for contributing to this forum. I've learned so much from this site. For the past 2 years...most likely 4, I've been suffering from low T. I have not been able to get Kaiser to see and really do anything about my problem. Just tests...tests...and more tests. I had to finally take my health into my own hands.

Wish me luck and let's all help each other!

Your not alone, I went to MD after MD looking for answers, all test came back low T but all they wanted to do was ignore that and do sleep studies and give my anti depression meds. Took matters into my own hands as well and it was life changing. I'm new hear as well, so good luck!

You guys are so supportive and really rock! Way more than my MD. This is no joke, I may sound like a super wuss here but there were times before I found this site these past 2 years where I thought I was all alone here to face this. I felt like I couldn't even tell my girlfriend or other family members. I knew something was wrong with me but just couldn't put my finger on it.

My MDs said it was depression RX'd me mood meds. I have a wonderful life but all my symptoms sounded like an Lilly Axiron topical gel commercial. Thank God Kaiser at lease did all the blood work for me. They have some pretty low standards however. My Total T kept pretty close but just north of Kaiser's < 200 before they do anything unfortunately these past 2 years.

Thanks for hearing me out and I'll move this thread to the "Over 40, Geezers, Dinosaurs," etc area.

Good luck brother. I'be been doing TRT for a while. Changed my life that's for sure. I'm also very fortunate that my doctor is great and understands what I'm doing (she actually my ex girlfriend). Lots of great info on here and plenty of guys willing to help you out.
