I don't remember my exact numbers but they have gone up each of the last 2 years since I started doing crossfit, I will be getting my next test later this month and will dig up my old reports. I have always lifted but was never into squats/deadlift/cleans very much, there is no doubt in my mind that doing them 3-4 times a week have directly affected my T.

Got my blood work results back. 285. I was referred to a urologist but they said they don't do TRT. Need to be referred to an endocrinologist. I have community first and I don't think I'm eligible to go see a private doc ( insurance is through my wife's work at university hospital and most docs on there are affiliated with the hospital). I might have to bite the bullet and pay out of pocket. Gonna call around tomorrow.

Have any of you guys that do the injections like I do had a problem getting the syringes or needles? I'm only about 12 weeks into doing the injections myself, and on my second bottle of T. When I got my second bottle a couple weeks ago Walgreens only had a few syringes on hand so they gave me one and said check back later. Well I went back today and they said there is some sort of shortage. I called two other places that didn't have them either. I looked online but I'm not real trusting of products like that being sterile. When I called the other places they acted like I was some meth junky shopping for supplies, just p****s me off! But on side note, my Dr.'s office called last week and said my level jumped from 275 to 900, and I'm feeling great.

I just order a big quantity from Amazon. Saves money over the long run. And sterile.
Exel 3mL syringe with 23g x 1in. Box of 100 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075VBQYKN..._f0lDAbV104CAH

I'm 53 and been on T for a year. Really perked me up. I get edgy/irritable at times, more so than before so I have to be careful. I self administer my meds (the wife does the T in my butt). I take the T shot on Monday along with a pill (anastrozole) and a small shot w/HCG. I receive these every 8 weeks from Royal Men's Health. SInce starting the T, I've dropped 50 lbs and did my first sprint triathalon, 5K and 10K. I'm training now for the CB&I tri in the Woodlands hoping to be close to 1:20 and perhaps in the top 2-3.
I swear by it and feel so much better. IT makes me care about stuff like I used to.
