Begin Testosterone Shots

[Blaise (imported)]

this coming Friday. After a decade and a half of lost potency and eventually almost no testosterone, I am intrigued by what changes I will experience (and I hope enjoy). I will keep you posted.

It's going to feel like going through puberty again, at least, it was for me.

Not a pleasant experience.

I wish you luck on it, though. You'll probably be feeling like a randy 18 year old in no time.

that I'm ready for that! Once was enough. What I have missed is an intimate relationship.

Good luck on your newfound virility Old Softee!

Sweet! It's kinda like you're a virgin all over again. :p

Hmmm.... I'm 19 years old, if I take hormone shots, how would that affect me? Like, would I be a lot randier? Or is there a preset limit to randiness.

Geo,

If you're 19 and everything's working normally, hormone shots would not be a good idea.

Yes, you would be even randier. You'd probably also be shaving two or three times a day, have an increase in body hair, a great chance of acne out of control, along with an increased sex drive and aggression that would NOT be a good idea for you.

Over time, and I could be wrong, but as your testicles realized that there was already a great amount of testosterone in your system, they might even get lazy and stop producing it on their own and shrink a bit. This is the effect that often occurs with steroid abuse among bodybuilders. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, or post some more info if you have it.

sounds on target. I'm taking testosterone because I've had a steady loss of it for a decade and a half. I want to take the opportunity to feel potent again after not feeling sexual.

Taking horomons that your body normally produces would, I think, be an invitation simply to lose what I've lost. For me this is an experiment.

By the way, not having libido has had a benefit--serenity and time for many activities.

So if we hear of a sex crazed man on the loose in Louisiana we can probley have a good idea who it is .Take it easy and i hope things work out for you.

for a bit of improvment! We'll see what happens. I may quickly find that I miss being a chemical eunuch.

There is a feedback loop in your body for test production. Once the lvl rises above what you body want, it will shut down your natural production until the level falls below the required amount.

Bodybuilders typically take massive amounts of test and other steriods but do them in cycles so that they avoid the shutdown effect. It takes several months to effect a total shutdown of your natural production.

Also it may not start back up again. It does happen that sometimes when the test is discontinued that your natural production will not start up again. So it's not something to be taken lightly.
