Half Life and How it Affects Your TRT

When you take a medication it is always good to have a basic understanding of what that particular medications "Half Life" is. Half Life is the amount of time it takes for the medication you are taking to reach its halfway point, so in other words when it becomes half as effective or there is only half of it left in your system. Some medications have a very short Half Life, like 12 hours while some medications can have a Half Life of several weeks. The shorter the Half Life, the quicker the medication gets into you body, but that also means you need to take a short Half Life medication more often.

Typically your doctor will give you instructions so you don't really need to know the Half Life time as the doctor will tell you how much and how often to take the medication prescribed with half life being considered. I still think it's good to know what's going on with any medication, especially when you are going on it or off of it as Half Life will determine how quickly that medication gets into your system and how long it will take if and when you stop using it to get out of your body fully.

In this video I talk about TRT and how not all Testosterone is the same when it comes to Half Life time, and how the Half Life time can change how quickly you feel the effects not only going on the TRT but also if you decide to come off.

My Doctor Fired Me

I originally had three doctors, my MD (Family Doctor), my Endocrinology (TRT) Doctor, and my Cardiologist (Heart Doctor), now I have two doctors, my MD (Family Doctor) and my Cardiologist (Heart Doctor). For a bit there, I only had my Cardiologist (Heart Doctor).

It all started with me firing my Endocrinology (TRT) doctor as I felt he was not the right fit for me, mainly as he seemed to be mostly concerned with my slightly elevated PSA, and not all that concerned with my low Testosterone symptoms I was still having being on only 60mg of Testosterone per week. For me I felt it was too low.

In this video I explain all the drama that took place after I fired my Endocrinology (TRT) and how ultimately that led to my MD (Family Doctor) firing me. It's all OK now as I have a new MD (Family Doctor) that I think is a much better fir for me and to be honest I don't really think my Endocrinology (TRT) Doctor was really offering me much other than a Testosterone prescription that was so low to the point that it was not really worth taking. Basically just enough to suppress my already low natural Testosterone levels but not enough to help with my low Testosterone symptoms.

TRT - 3 Month Bloodwork Results on 100mg of Testosterone

It's been just over three months since I started taking prescription doctor prescribed 100mg of Testosterone per week and so it was time to get my bloodwork done to see just where I am at.

In terms of how I am feeling I would say most of the major problems I was having from low Testosterone have been worked out being on the Testosterone for three months. Energy and mood are much better, the aches and pains are also improved, but I still have a little bit of shoulder pain that is totally manageable now. Sex drive is back and I feel more eagerness to go to the gym and I am seeing some muscle and size improvements but not drastic. I have maybe gained around 7 pounds total as I was about 185 when I started TRT and I am now sitting at generally 192 pounds most days.

When I started my TRT I had a Testosterone level of 1 nmol/L which is about what a female might have. I should be between 8 and 29 to be within normal healthy ranges, preferably in the 20's. Getting my bloodwork is not only to see what my Testosterone is now at but also to see what else the TRT may be influencing like RBC, PSA, Liver function...

My bloodwork results did show that my Red Blood Cell and Hemoglobin where just a tad high but only by just a little My PAS was the most concerning as when I started the TRT it was on the high normal side and now it has gone up about 30% so I am in a range that needs to be monitored as it should maybe have only gone up 10-20% from the TRT.

Surprisingly my Testosterone was now at 31 nmol/L so just a little bit higher than high normal ranges. With all things considered we decided to take my TRT down to 80mg per week which is not a big difference tat the end of the day and I should not feel any difference but will hopefully get my RBC and PSA down to normal ranges.

 

10 Weeks on TRT - Get Fit Over 40

My last update was almost 5-6 weeks ago so I guess I better get a TRT progress video out for everyone. To be honest I noticed the most changes after around the first month and then things slowed down and progress is still happening but much slower now. I am only on 100mg of Testosterone per week with the goal to be i the middle natural Testosterone ranges so I don't expect to get super jacked on this fairly low TRT dose, the goal is really to feel better and at least have a chance in the gym getting stronger and being able to recover between workouts.

When I started my TRT I was around 185 pounds and fairly lean I would say, right now I am around 192-194 depending on the day and I am still relatively lean but I do want to get closer to 190 with perhaps a bit more muscle but I would like to get rid of some of the hard to lose fluff in the mid section.

I feel pretty good overall, even my shoulders are coming around and my overall energy and mood are good, sex drive I would say is back to about the way it was but not like when I was 20 ;)

I finish the video off with some update posing with a couple comparisons to when I started 10 weeks ago so you can hopefully see some positive changes...
