I hope you can help.
I'm 26 years old and had my free and total test checked by bloodwork recently and the total test was LOW at 176 on a scale of 250-1100 and the free test was "normal" at 54.3 on a scale of 35.0-155.0.
I have taken two PH's in the past. One was just EPI and the other was EPI and TR3N. On both cycles I took Nolva (AR-R's) and t-boosters as the post cycle therapy. The EPI and TR3N one was taken June 2014. This is the one that my male parts stopped working with through the cycle. It seemed like as soon as I added Tr3N my stuff down there didn't work as well and then pretty much stopped working towards the end. It wasn't until a couple of weeks in my post cycle therapy that I noticed my stuff start working again.
Here is the example of what I took in June 2014 detailed:
ON Cycle
8 weeks of TR3N 60/60/90/90/90/90/120/120
6 weeks of EPi 30/45/45/45/45/45
Armicare Pro on cycle
Fish Oil 2 times a day
Multi Vitamin w/Joint Supp
5 grams Taurine Preworkout
Creatine HCL 5mg daily
At Week 5 start taking prolactin supp
OFF Cycle
Sup3r Post cycle therapy 6 weeks
Nolva (from AR-R) 4 weeks 20/20/10/10
The only other things I have taken in the past are test boosters from local health stores. I always noticed that if I took anything with the ingredient tribulus in it, I would go extremely quick in bed. I'm not sure if this is normal, but it was like I had ED while on it.
I have felt depressed, tired and wanted to sleep all day long, no motivation, anxious, no drive in the bedroom, and hard to keep it up and get it up. This is pretty much how I have felt the last few years while taking Lexapro, though.. but it seems even worse now. Like college doesn't start for another week and I have been sleeping for 12-14 hours a day and not leaving the house even and feeling really depressed.
The thing I don't get the most is that I have always been able to pack on muscle easily, even naturally. I walk around at 6 foot 3 and weigh 235lbs at a 16% bf. My strength has been pretty good at the gym too it seems. So I just don't get this whole low T thing at my age. I don't notice it too much at the gym, but at home it controls my life and keeps me in the house.
I thought this was all because I have anxiety disorder and got treated for this at the age of 22. Lexapro was supposed to make you feel like this and have no drive. I switched medicines recently (Welbutrin) and it is a stimulant, but I still felt the same. I was at the gym a few weeks ago and an older friend who had to start TRT at the age of 25 told me this is how he felt as well and I should get my free and total test taken at a lab since I did not have insurance.
So is it possible even though I did Nolva after each cycle for 4 weeks, that my low T level is from the Pro or do you think since I have felt like sh*t since I was 17 when all of my anxiety issues started, that maybe I have just always had low T and never knew about it?
I had a much longer response but the forum wouldn't let me post it. So any questions, please feel free to ask me.
I do not currently have insurance since I turned 26 last June and got bumped off of my parent's insurance and I'm in grad school full time so it is more difficult to work.
Thank you!
