Hello! I am the man who first started taking the medicine only a few days ago (in a different post that you can read on here). I promised myself that I would get back to this website and write about how I am doing now that I have been taking this medicine for around 6 months now. I originally went from 1 1/2cc every 2 weeks to 2 1/2 cc every 2 weeks. I am feeling GREAT. My wife has noticed tha...

I am a male just turned 66 good shape 6'2" weight 208 but my Testosterone was down and body was loosing strength. Been on it for a year and as long as I can get to a office to get my shot on time I feel great but I had to skip some times and I can feel the difference so now back on schedule. I am learning to give myself the shot so I can keep on schedule. Also get a check of my testosterone either ever six months or yearly. I would say it has done me a lot of good and when on schedule I feel great. Has help my sex drive so that is good also. Read More Read Less

I have been taking this medicine for two year after my Dr checked for T-level and found them to be 230. I find this drug to make a marked change in my life. I have lot more energy and increased libido. I am taking this medication in addition to flomax for enlarged prostate. I don't think I have seen anyone else take that combination. With both these medication I feel great. Sometime I feel like I am cheating!

I've been self-injecting since 1992 when I was Dxd with 47XXY. Self-esteem improved greatly, finished puberty at age 36! Body hair distribution increased and was able to grow a beard. Muscle mass increased as well as energy levels. No side effects as of now.

I am 32. I have been on TestCyp for about a month now. The original reason my dr gave it to me is because I always said how tired I was and had leg cramps and no matter how much exercise i did my weight wouldnt come down from 200 (I am a vegetarian) and my blood sugars were still in the 100's despite medication for years. I was also diagnose as being bipolar about 11 years ago and have been on every single drug for that and depression, and I mean every drug. Nothing at all worked. I never wanted to get out of bed and was not interested in sex at all, not even masturbation. On a whim , my dr had my levels checks and they were 62. He rechecked it with a result of 64. He thinks that I have had Low test for years and that was the cause of my mood swings and depression and thats the reason the drugs werent working, because they were treating a problem i didnt have. Everyone says to inject yourself in the rear, but I have been injecting myself in the deltoid with no problem. The only thing I notice is about 10 minutes later i feel a sort of high and my blood pressure goes up, but I have learned to time my bp meds to help with that. I honestly havent noticed anything negative yet other than that. I am still waiting to see if anything good happens. i do know my restless leg has completely stopped and my insulin seems to be working better. I am taking 100cc a week. Read More Read Less

Ive been on tst cyp injections for almost 2 weeks. From the first shot,I felt way better.My anti ageing doc prescribed this when my test levels were 305. He says thats the test level of a 80 year old man. Ignorant docs will say 305 is normal..but it isnt! I was tired all the time, moody and depressed with no sex drive at all. But now, just 2 weeks into therapy,Im horny all the time, have great sex with my wife and feel very enerrgetic.I take shots every 3 days, this prevents the roller coaster effect so many complain of. And all of my chest hair,beard and body hair that I lost is growing in very thick again. I also take arimidex 3 times a week to prevent man boobs from sprouting and to keep the test from converting to estrogen.This is vital, and if your doc wont give it to you or prescribe it correctly and proper doseage you need to find an anti ageing doctor..they know best and wont hesitate to prescribe enough to have an effect.Gels and creams and patches wont give much help so dont waste your time with that crap.Overall, I feel great like im 18 again and im 40!

I have been on testosterone for almost 2weeks.taking a shot every 3 days. That's about 225 mg/ml weekly. I feel like I'm 18 again and I'm 40. I'm horny all the time and always in a good mood. Lots of energy! My beard is filling in and my body hair is growing everywhere. Taking a shot every 3 days prevents the rollercoaster effect. Also, make sure you take arimidex 3 times a week to keep your excess test from converting to estrogen and then u end up with man boobs and such. For those of you getting small doses every 2 weeks or monthly u need 2 find a new doc as that's way to low doesage. Get an anti aging doc, they know the importance of correct test therapy. I just feel like a new man no complaints from me !Read More Read Less

I am a personal trainer and a firefighter. I workout hard daily.Daytime fatigue and sleeplessness at night were my primary symptoms so I asked my doctor and he had my testosterone checked. Although exercise increases testosterone levels mine was 241. He put me one injections and within days I had much more energy and slept like a rock. My strength has been drastically better and my workouts more intense. I'm 46 and weigh 185, and have been bench pressing 315 consistently since starting the injections. My dose is 1cc every 10 days. I'm also an advanced EMT so the injections are easy.Read More Read Less

I just received my second shot of four. I feel that I have more energy and a much greater confidence in myself. I have been very "frisky" since my first shot.I have to wait to see what else improves. I started out with a count of 114 so as you can see that I have a long way to go.

I had been taking the testosterone shot for about 2 months. During the last 3 weeks I have gained about 13 pounds, I feel nauseated while awake, my blood pressure has gone up about 20 points, I have headaches and feel dizzy about once or twice a day. I started out taking one shot a week for 4 weeks and then one shot every 2 weeks after that. I just couldn't handle it any more. I was diagnosed with low testosterone levels.

i received a back injury 9 years ago. i was on oxy for about 2 years for the pain. i decided to take my life back but i found i was depressed and could not get the energy or ability to get my body in shape after 2 years sitting around. after 5 years i went to the doctor to find out what the problem was. i tried several anti depression drugs with no help. went and got tested and my testosterone level was 56. yea really low. the doctor said that there is prof that oxy use could cause this problem. it took about a year to work out a appropriate schedule for me. it started out 1 ml every 10 days. i did not like the ups and downs in a 10 day cycle. now with my doctors OK i am doing doing .6 ml every 7 days. i find for me its is so much smoother. i only have about a 8 hour royd rush and the down time is very minimal. i do say i have taken advantage of the drug and i work out 3-4 times a week and eat much better than i use to. i do have a few friends that are on the drug and have put many pounds on and have become really aggressive. i do believe its a fountain of youth, or at least i feel that way about myself. but only if used appropriately.

I received my first injection 3 days ago and have noticed very little effects. I am 28 and my test levels were 319 ng. I don't know if the difference I feel is due to the medicine (if it was actually test and not a placebo) or simply my excitement at receiving testosterone to help with all my problems: constant fatigue/always sleeping, very low energy, depression, anxiety/panic attacks, type 2 diabetes, and being fat, low sex drive (and i have always had gynemocastia}. I do have a little pain in the injection area. I really hope it wasn't a placebo.Read More Read Less

Hello, This is my first post. I am 1 injection into my therapy for a Test. Level of 209 and I’m a young age of 29. I saw my Dr for a lack of energy (I could sleep 12 hours and still be tired) not having a libido what’s so ever. (No sex in 7 months and my fiancée thinks I don’t find her attractive and was over it all!) I was also always in a bad mood, always. So my Dr thought I had depression and put on an Rx for that. I felt it made me feel Worse, so I stopped taking it and told him. I did some research on my own on the Internet to see what I could find and found it might be low testosterone. So I had my primary care Dr do the level test and it was the 209. He sent me to the endocrinologist and she did a full blood hormone test and found that all levels where right but my testosterone and at the time I was tested that time it was 224. My 1st shot that my Fiancée gave to me did not make me feel to different. I did find that I had more energy or at least did not feel like sitting around like I did before. My mood has changed from being negative to being quite happy… I do not sleep all night and morning and have a better outlook on my everyday life. I am waiting for my sexual appetite to come back as is my other half but I’m 2 weeks in and very optimistic. I will be tested before I take my 2nd dose to calibrate my levels but things are looking up. Please…. Please do not hesitate to get your levels tested if you show signs that you have read in all the testimonies. It does not matter if your young like me or older. You really don’t know the impact that your hormones will have on you till you are low and get it fixed!! Read More Read Less

My doctor prescribed after my t-levels were around 257. At 51 years old I feel like I am in my 30's again with tremendous sex drive with loads of energy for exercise. If you are suffering don't put it off see you doctor you'll kick yourself for not doing something sooner!
