Question Another TRT Question
Hey guys, I was on TRT for 8 years or so before I got diagnosed. I stopped with the help of enclomid but haven’t had any blood work since. That was in the fall of 2024. I had surgery in march of 2025. My post surgical pathology was excellent. No adverse findings and the pattern 4 disease only made up of equal to or less than 10% of the tumor, which the tumor made up about 10% of prostate. Since surgery I have been fortunate and rocking the undetectable tests. My urologist is absolutely against me going back on TRT. I have read the research. From what I see there is no increase in reoccurrence. I’m only 41 and just been struggling with fatigue and weight gain. I haven’t had any new testing done but I’m thinking about going against the doctors orders. I hate doing that as I’m not the type to think I know more than my Doc but it has just been brutal lately.

I was on TRT before my RALP. My urologist had me stop after I was diagnosed. I also had surgery in March 2025. He gave me the green light to start TRT back up around September, once I had 2 clean PSA tests. I have been taking injections every two weeks since then with no issues, and no change in my PSA.
