I do have most of the common symptoms to some degree, Ive had it described as “TRT makes men with low test feel the way people wish antidepressants made them feel” You gain muscle and lose fat easier, you’re more motivated, more energetic, more stable moods, less irritable…
So knowing its low enough to qualify me for TRT is like a red-pill, blue pill scenario. If I take the TRT I definitely get the results and the side effects. If I dont and try to bring it back naturally, I might achieve nothing, I might bring it back to “normal” but it could take a long time and be very difficult.
Now I know its an issue, I kind of have to do something. My biggest worry is that if I try natural I’ll raise it just enough naturally to not be eligible for TRT but not get it high enough to really feel great.
Sometimes a diagnosis makes everything even worse than the actual symptoms, but I assume that it has been bothering you, if you had it checked. I don’t know what the natural way of getting it back is, or what “normal” is, but I’d think it is normal to have a lower testosterone the older you get
How does it affect your life? Is it dangerous, or more like an inconvenience?
Also, reading a it about it, it seems that it is not a hard limit, and that some have set it to 300 where others at 250.
