I had memory trouble. No solution found.

What kind of trouble did you have and what was the solution to it, if you found one?

Hey, JoeS21. Maybe someone who has taken these injections will be along soon. Were the doctors convinced that your memory problems were due to the testosterone?

I think it's a well-known side effect of testosterone enanthate that some people experience. I believe it's even be listed on the containers. (For other people, I've heard the opposite happens but that's good and not a problem like I'm having.)

Could Testosterone enanthate cause Short-term memory loss (Memory loss) - eHealthMe.com

I don't take testosterone. So I can't answer your question directly. But there is a YouTube channel (username BignoKnow)which deals with testosterone. Noah Thomas uploads videos on low T, depression & other mental health problems. He's very willing to answer any questions anyone has. Also his father is a physician. So Noah has access to more information than just his own personal experience. If you have a YouTube channel you could contact Noah.

I think I may very well have low testosterone. I have so little energy nowadays. But, given my GID, taking testosterone is the last thing in the world I would be interested in doing!
Thanks for this!
Rand.

I'm not sure but could it be because injections cause your hormones to fluctuate more rapidly/frequently? More dips, less highs, ect. Maybe you could switch to a topical gel to give your hormones more stability? Good luck.

That or weekly injections. That will give a stable line, it's what I'm hoping to do.

I've never heard of memory issues as a problem with T but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I'd talk to your Dr. about it.
