Remission from testicular cancer
ad
I’m 34 and was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2019. Lost a nut but made a full recovery. I lost a lot of weight(6’1” 170lbs). Dr prescribed test cyp 50mg/week but my free testosterone is 5.1 so that’s not near enough to get me even close to normal levels. I lost my insurance and cannot afford to see a specialist or anything. I’ve done probably 4-5 cycles in the past and was very fit but now I’m weak, tired, no libido… I’m ready to get back to where I’ve been before but am unsure of what I should do. Does anybody have any experience or advice?

Need to discuss with doc. Tell him you feel like shit on that low of test. The caveat here is that he may not want to increase test because of possible increase in cancer risk. Need to discuss with him though. This is something you don't want to take into your own hands.
What was a sign of the testicular cancer bro
Was watching tv one night and went to fondle myself and felt a lump. Went to a urologist and a week later went under the knife and they took my whole left nut.
Watching NASCAR has that affect on me too...
Oh shit. Thanks for the reply. Stay healthy man
AnonMy advice is to frequently get blood work to check PSA levels or whatever is checked to see if the cancer is returning. Research TRT for men who had testicular cancer and see what are the risks...can using steriods cause your cancer to return? That would be my question if I was in your shoes. I don't have an answer.
Thanks for the advice. I plan on getting blood tests at lab Corp which will show test levels, psa, and white/red blood cell count. I’ve been researching and it’s almost necessary for men who have gone through testicular cancer to be on trt for the rest of their life. Just can’t figure out the exact details of what I can do.
Rustyhooker^^^^^^^and definitly better blood tests
