I finally took the plunge. In part I went because of this thread, so thank you to the people willing to openly talk about it. It’s easy to find threads on a place like T-Nation but it was hard to tell how much of that was leaning towards bodybuilders vs a dude who just wants to feel better.
Went to a local clinic, got some blood tests and found that I was at 164 total with their labs reference range of 280-1100. I’m one day in on treatment and I already feel better. I understand that most of the benefit comes over the next few weeks to months. I’m looking forward to it.
This clinic does test cypionate, HCG, and anastrozole. The idea of only test is appealing for the simplicity, but I figure I’ll give their protocol a try and gain some personal experience.
