Hi I am 25 year old male, and diagnosed with idiopathic hypogonadism. I was originally was tested at 81 total T on 8/21/06. Never had a high sex drive, but I think I lost too much muslce (wasting to fast) training for triathlons, I went below my BMI, which isnt much at 5'6" (Im now 130 10%bf). Since then I have started androgel starting with 8 pumps and decreasing over the months in line with my increasing T levels. I was also diagnosed with elevated liver enzymes with no know cause (no hepatitus or anything). my liver levels are slowly improving a bit almost normal. Are liver and T levels associated? My endo wants to keep weaning me off, currnelty my levels are 630 total and 334 bio-available T. He wants me to use 3 pumps daily now. bloods again in 6 weeks.
So...Is this even enough to do anything??? I was doing 6 pumps the last couple months. Is weaning off androgel effective? does is slolwy jump start your pituitary gland, since weve established thats the prob, not my ball! I compete in triathlons, and lift weights 4 days a week. Ive been feelig great and gained almost 10 pounds mostly muscle...I just dont want to start feeling like shit again, like last summer!
whats the most effective way to stop HRT, Androgel, I started taking Jaks M Stak hopefully to make up for less androgel, and its got milk thistle and dht blocker, which is nice. Anybody experienced with coming off HRT at a young are, obviously dont want to be on it forever, trying to become a military pilot as well, and im not sure if Id be able to keep on this if Im selected. ANy Advice help would be awesome!
