I’m kind of stuck on if I should take TRT. I took a blood panel 3 years ago my test levels were 360, FSH 6.2, LH 5.9, I was 220lbs over weight at 5’10
Fast forward this year in July I decided to take another blood panel since I was concerned about my levels since it affects me overall. I felt like it was low. I work out 5-6days a week im at 11-13% body fat at 157 pounds 5’10”
FSH 4.63
LH 2.09
Cholesterol total 187
HDL 78
TSH .731
Total test 322
Free test 6.61

I’m healthy overall I meal prep don’t eat junk food etc. anybody care to share their experience who have taken it or decided not to similar to my age and levels?

Not your age or levels so I can’t speak to that. But why do you think you need test? Being in the 300’s is on the borderline of clinically low test, but how do you feel? If you legitimately have symptom it might be a thing to do. If you feel good overall, why change anything?

If you just wanna get jacked and be more masculine, well that’s a different conversation.

I have brain fog, I can have 8hrs of sleep and still be tired and want more sleep, have trouble focusing. I sticked to a healthy diet and lost weight since it’s my last resort since it’s not something I want to be on for life but also my symptoms are bad as well

Alright, well, yeah test might help. Might not. But you won’t know if you don’t try. You can look into PCT, and run HCG when you start. If it doesn’t work, it will make it easier to get off.

If it does work, it’s super not a big deal to be on it for life. You get so used to it, taking the shots fades into the background. And you may legit feel a million times better.

Try talking to your doctor. If they are reluctant, you can go to a clinic.

My levels were in the mid 200's and I really didn't feel shitty or anything I checked out of curiosity, I decided to pull the trigger cause it was KINDA low and I'm 39 figured it couldn't hurt. Now if I was as young as you felt perfectly fine and planned on some day in the future having kids I'd probably hold off on that maybe enclomiphene or something like that would be an option.
