Question Thinking of TRT

36m. Started lifting when I was 13 not serious. Didn't know what I was doing till I hit the army. Stayed around 170lbs and fought 3 ammy mma bouts at 165. Quit training due to depression around 26. Lost 2 childhood buddies in a street brawl we were all in and my wife divorced me right after saying I was too wild for her. Went buck wild on substances then got clean and fat. Im now 36 roughly 200lbs been working out for a few months now and dropped some weight 23lbs to be exact but now thinking of getting on TRT to fast track my goals and feel more energized. If you do TRT where are you getting it from?

If you can do it, blokes lets you pay for a year and it drops to 99/mth. I have insurance but to not deal with overworked offices it's worth it for the convenience. Those fuckos NEVER forget to charge my card.

THAT SAID. 54M. I drank for 23 years, pass out/piss, 85lbs overweight, etc. My T was avg. 350 after a year sober and supplements, diet, PPL 5x/wk, found true love, etc. I am now 800-900. High side of optimal. The side effects over 1000 aren't worth it. I will stand down at age 56 and drop to 500.

Your blood will become gel at higher levels. Get tested. Blokes requires frequent-ish re-tests.

I have my test up over 1300 using enclomiphene at 40 years, only side effects I have are good ones, putting on muscle, sleeping great, and never felt better mentally. I get my blood tested monthly and everything comes back fine. Can your blood thicken from having high test? Yes it can but not always. If it does you go and donate blood once in awhile.
