Anyone on treatment for this? I posted on men’s forum but no one ever replies? My last testosterone was super low. 147 and I’m 38. My man parts don’t work as well. Also was told can help with depression, motivation and weight loss.

I wish I could help. Obviously I'm not a man, but I have heard quite a bit lately about t treatment.

I hope someone replies to your post, boogie.

I have seen ads for T booster supplements. Have you tried any?

What does your doctor say about supplementing?

I highly recommend bio-identical testosterone pellets....they are inserted in the fleshy part of your hip/backside and will last about 6 months. A little pricey but I think you'll find it worth every cent:

I’m a woman but due to having no ovaries I use both estrogen and testosterone implants. My implants last me approx 9 months.
When my mood, motivation or get up and go drops, the first thing my docs do is check my blood levels.

my pdoc suggested I take T for a low libido. But she said it could make me aggressive.

It helps him with his energy and overall mood. It also has helped him with the male side of things.

There are many supplements OTC; however, I strongly advise supplementing under the supervision of a physician as too much T can cause serious health problems, too.

I gave myself testosterone injections which the doctor prescribed for me. I decided to stop. Testosterone come in an oil, so the needle is much larger than normal. There is this stuff you can place on your chest, but it is very expensive since my insurance will not cover it. It amounted to over $1000 a month. When I was using these injections. I did notice some improvement, particularly on the male side of things. However, I became tired of those injections.

Bio-identical pellets will cost a LOT less and lasts up to 6 months for men.

I get an injection every other week. I have not noticed any negitive side effects. The positives are increased labido,little less depression and a slight increase in energy. The biggest pain is drawing the liquid out of the vial. If you end up going with injections ask for a larger needle to draw up the liquid then switch to a smaller needle to inject with you can use the shot needle to draw up the liquid it just takes a little longer but no big deal cause i have never been in a rush to get a shot lol. Good luck.

What has your experience been like with replacement. Has your depression lifted and motivation? I used to be a gym rat and lived two hours there and an hour or two at my mma school. Now it’s so much anxiety thinking about going.
Have you lost weight and have the parts work better?

Sorry for barrage of questions, was this your first time? My last level was 130 and 4.7. Did they suggest injections in first ?

Yeah I don't remember what my numbers were but they suggested shots right in the beginning. They do make a cream you can put on though I think it is called andragel(SP?)

I have been getting injections for a couple of years now. My wife gives them to me and I have done a couple myself when I am away from home without the boss being there.
