I struggled for years with the symptoms and issues associated with low test. The problems became unmanageable and I decided the only thing worse than being on trt for the rest of my life would be continuing to live the way I was. I have been on doctor supervised trt for about 5 months now. Before my test ranged from 250-300 and my estro was so low it would not even give the actual number on blood work. My last bloods from the Dr showed that my test had increased to around 500 and my estro was around 30. Even though my estro was still "normal range" I was getting extremely sensitive nipples. He put me on half a pill of Adex and I cant remember the exact mg dose it is per week. It made me so brain dead that I started doing injections twice a week instead of once and a quarter of pill of Adex twice a week. This seemed to help some but its still clock work, each time I take the Adex my cognition and memory recall decreases to below 50% of where it was prior for a day or two. Really the only side effect I get from estro being out of blanace is sensitive nipples and small lumps. Its becoming concerning because the lumps are increasing very slowly but at times I'm forced to chose take the adex and be brain dead or be able to cognitively function. At times its imperative that I mentally function at a high level and am forced to skip the adex.

All the background info aside, my question is, do any of you suffer the dreaded brain fog?

If you do, did switching to a different med fix the problem?

I have an appointment with him next month and plan on talking to him about this because its hugely problematic. I would like to have a little more to be able to mention in the conversation or possible ideas to correct the situation, if there are any.

Thanks in advance for any insight or ideas...
