I've been taking shots to kill my T levels for about 2 years now. Currently my ng/dl level is at 6, basically 0% & has been for these 2 years. Before that for about 4 years I was on meds that kept my ng/dl down around 120. It would appear to me that I've had a rather large amount of testicular shrinkage.
Two questions- 1: Anyone else experience this? 2: Probably permanent isn't it?
Thanks!

Re: Testicle Shrinkage
I need more information. Why are you taking shots to kill your T levels? Are you forced to do this or is it your own will? Was it a medical problem? Are you transgender? Do you hate being male? If you have a lot of testicular shrinkage, was that your goal? You're basically a eunuch at these levels.

Thanks! By choice. By going on Trelstar I was able to even out mood swings & get off some NASTY psyc meds (which allowed me to pass a D.O.T. physical & get back to work!), & kill some BAD sexual urges. Also, no I enjoy being male. And yes, I know at these levels my T levels are lower then most that have had testicles surgically removed.
Just curious about the shrinkage.

Re: Testicle Shrinkage
Your testicular shrinkage might not be permanent. A lot of body builders who use heavy steroids develop testicle shrinkage, to get their testicles back to size they stop the steroids for awhile and get shots of HCG. HCG is cheap and your endocrinologist can give the shots to you, just ask. If your testicles have shrunk they should be willing. Here's a website to find out more:

Re: Testicle Shrinkage
it all depends on what medications you were taking. I would suspect that your testicle shrinkage may not reverse after such a long period. It is not as if you are going to go through puberty again now that you didscontinued the chemicals.

Re: Testicle Shrinkage
I have been on Androcur for 4 years. And I have stopped Androcur for a couple of years. My testes remain at the shrunken size. If anything, they seem to continue to shrink even after stopping Androcur.
