Any men in here on TRT?

[Boofy]

hi all,

does anyone in here have experience on TRT?
what did you find it helped you with and was it worth it?

lots of opinions online from men in the later years, would prefer to hear from those on it or have been on it - not what people's opinions are that have never used it or done the research on it.

Yes. I started about 5 months ago. I have an chronic illness that drains my energy. I am 73. I also had rough bouts of deptession.
I have a lot more energy, and I am much more active, and I generally feel better.
I did need to lower the dose to 80 mgs a week because I was getting very irritated easily.

My insurance helps pay for it also.

sounds like its given you back some quality of life would you say?
better recovery and any improvement with aches and pains? - what was your starting dose @Paco Dennis

I inject...subcutaneous. I started on 100mgs a week. I went down to 80mgs a week...I was feeling a bit agitated, unusually.
Yes, it has helped. I have more energy, not so fatigued. Still have my aches and pains, but I think it has improved my attitude.

I thought it would be a lot more widespread in the over 60’s market but finding very few that use it @Paco Dennis
