Hi!
First of all sorry for my english.
I discovered this forum few days ago, and I’d like to know what do you think about my problems.
(EDIT) To sum up, my question is:
I think I “fixed” my testosterone problem with the HCG and Clomiphene+Tamox, but I still feel bad. A lot of people from other forums think I can solve my testosterone problem if I solve my tyroid problem, but my doctor said:
-First thing: I should use testex since now, and a Vit D supplement.
-Second thing: with the next blood tests we will see if we have some problem with the tyroid, but testosterone is a different problem, you can start TRT right now.
The next tests: tyroid ultrasound, cortisol test urine 24h, blood works more focused in tyroid
I don’t know what to do. Start testex cypionate right now and start feeling good? Repeat HCG+Clomiphene+Tamoxiphene? Wait and see the Tyroid’s results?
I think is better to use testosterone than touch the tyroid. I think that because when I was on TRT my TSH went down to something like 3,5 and tyroid is more delicated.
What do you think about that?

WHAT’S MY PROBLEM?
-I don’t know exactly, doctors says hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (but nowadays I have good erections).
-I also have high TSH levels and high Tyroids Antibodies levels. One endocrinologist diagnosis me Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis.
-And I also have in some analyticals high levels of Cortisol.
In November 2012 I decided to check by myself the hormones levels because suddenly I felt fatigued, depressed, low libido (apart from never in my life muscle gain, always easy fat gain)… and my doctor didn’t want to check it. (Depressed is normal for me, but fatigued isn’t)
15 Nov 2012:
22 years old, never use roids or prohormones.
-Prolactina---------------8.71 ng/ml (2.1 - 17.7)

-Testosterone total —4.74 ng/ml (2.41 - 8.27)
-Estradiol (17-beta)-- 26.90 pg/ml (inf. 52)
-Progesterona--------- 1.30 ng/ml (0.28 - 1.22)
Bioquimic analytical correct.
After that I paid for a medical ensurance and these doctors precribed me complete analyticals.

-INSULINA------------------------ 3,60 (<25)
-RESISTENCIA A LA INSULINA (HOMA) 0,71 (<3,8 )
After that the endocrinologist prescribed me Testis Compositum (natural testosterone precursor) 1 month, 2 ampoules per week.
OCTOBER 2013:

OPINION: I didn’t notice anything with Testis, but the levels were right.
After Testis, the same endocrinologist prescribed me Testex (cyp) 100-250-250 (one per 3 weeks).

Testo free: 5.30 (5.6-27)

Hematology correct.
OPINION: With Testex I noticed some things: smaller testicles, more erections and better, much more energy, best physical shape in my life (gain muscle and lose fat at the same time)…
After all that I decided to search another way; I had 23 years and TRT for life is hard. So I made a PCT. Some people with my problem try that and it works!
