To respond to your earlier question about TRT: if your levels have dropped off even with consistent testosterone therapy, I would make sure that your doses have been accurately metered out. At the moment I can't recall if you were using pellets. In general, from everything I've read, I can't really recommend pellets. The dosing is quite inconsistent with this method and also doesn't appear to deliver the same peak to testosterone levels that regular injections do


I'm sorry Duke, I must have mentioned that my wife is taking testosterone and estrogen pellets every four months.
It has really energized our sex life


I've never taken any testosterone treatment, I wanted to get your opinion about me going from 880 T to 660 T in the last three years. My primary doctor says that 660 is adequate, but I just don't get as horny as I did 2 and 3 years ago.
When my urologist doc tested my levels before I got the implant, I was at 880.

I have a FrankTalk friend in Dallas, Texas that uses Androgel and it has worked for him, I can't remember how many times a week or daily that he uses it. He is 70

Do you think that it would be beneficial to see if I could get my levels back to 880?

Thanks Duke,
SWorks


SWorks — Sorry I mis-remembered! But yes, I think it's worth looking into TRT to get your levels back up. A lot of guys are chasing a specific number, but really what you should be looking for is amelioration of conditions. A lot of guys think their T should be near 1,000, but really you should just dose the amount that helps you feel your best. Your PCP is going to feel like anything within the (very broad) reference range of 300 to 900 or what-not is normal. You might have to go with a TRT clinic.

Androgel is kind of tough because it's inconvenient, greasy, smells, and you can't touch anyone directly with it or you'll give them a dose on accident. I'd get your levels tested again and see what your numbers look like. But as always: check the other stuff too. How's your sleep and stress? I assume you're eating well to keep up with all the bicycling you do. If everything else is the same or normal, I'd think about it. Also, check your "free" testosterone, which is arguably even more important than the total T number.

Thank you, sir!! Without your encouragement early on in this forum, I might not have gone through with the malleable. But here I am!!

I've heard good things about boron ... I'm worried about taking that much Vitamin D, though! You take that every day? When's the last time you've had those levels checked? Vitamin D is toxic at high doses.

Thanks for the info Duke, I appreciate your help.

My sleep and stress levels are good. I'll go to my wife's wellness clinic where she gets her HRT treatments and get checked myself, like you said in your reply, it's more about feeling right than going too far.

Thanks again for your help,

100 days with my Genesis malleable

Just a brief update from me today. I almost can't believe it, but it's been 100 days since my Genesis was implanted. Since being cleared for sex in late January, my life has improved enormously. I'm way more confident, have even more interest in my health and well-being, my depression has seriously faded — and, of course, I am having lots of amazing sex.

This week alone I had three dates with three different women, one of which is about to arrive to my apartment in about an hour. One woman warned me that she's never been able to have an orgasm from penetrative intercourse alone, so I might have to spend some time using my mouth and hands. Either she lied or I was her first, since she was very loudly screaming last night that "oh my god, I'm fucking cumming." As I held her afterward, she was shivering like someone in the midst of hypothermia. I'm pretty satisfied with my performance.

Just changed the sheets for my date this evening; she's a repeat regular since my implant. We'll order some light dinner for delivery and then get to it.

I've never been on the dating apps, but I'm working hard to get in even better shape for when summer rolls around so I have the option of enjoying everything that Chicago has to offer. One of the greatest things about living in one of the biggest cities in America is that there's a seemingly endless supply of drop-dead gorgeous women. Maybe I'll finally sign up for a Tinder account and start making up for all the lost time.

I can't even believe I'm talking this way. 101 days ago, this was merely a ridiculous fantasy.

You guys, thank you again for your constant support and encouragement. The bionic brotherhood has changed my life.
