came off hrt after a year and a half

[king1033]

well I have made the decision to give it one more go at a natural life although in the past i failed with flying colors, but this this with the knowledge i have Im going to give it a shot. I taperd down from my weekly dose of 200 down to 100 I have been off for 4 weeks and feel absolutely fine! i came off at 220 and i am around 212 but my lifts are still the same it looks like i lost water if anything. i have been taking aromasin at 12.5mg ED going to do this for about 6 weeks also go by how my body is feeling, also going to incorp hcg at 250iu e4d and see what that will muster up, I couldnt get my hands on novla but i think i will be ok without it. onloy thing i notice is my hunger is like shit but thats because i went traveling and fell ovff my diet and didnt have breakfast a couple days in a row, stupid mistake i wake up nausues everymorning and it will be hard to stomach things occasionally but only first thing in the morning, any idea to combat this? also any other pointers much appreciated! oh also i had a full bottle of usp labs prime so i thought why the hell not it could only help.

Do you plan on actually going off the 100mg? If so let us know how your bloodwork looks if your test levels return to normal.

What was your blood work and T ranges before you started HRT?

In my experiance... it will be rough but can certainly be done. Good work on the taper... keep training very hard, short intense sessions. Get in and get out... I believe you can recover! It took me almost 9 months but I did. (to a certain extent) My test levels never got back to where they were b4 i started but I feel great, libido is back in full force and maintained much of my gains... Strength on some exercises are at an all-time best!!! Pulled (deadlift) 575lb today at a bodywgt of 210 or so... like I said, after I made the decision to come off it took a long time (and i was always on very low doses) but I am truckin' now haha. Actually, I am pretty excited to see what I can do naturally. Sure, i will not be as big, but come hell or high water i will have a 450bench, 650 dead, 600 squat within 2 years naturally. Set some goals and put your mind to it buddy, a few ppl lead me to believe I was 'screwed' but supplement wisely, put 100% into your nutrition and hit the gym like a f#cking mad man everytime you step foot in there and see what happens...

Good luck bud!!!

oh im sorry to clarify i have been OFF for 4 weeks i taperd down to the 100 and then came off and now i have been 4 weeks off and feel and actually look a little better than i did while on hrt, im contributing that to the water weight flucuation i get on hrt. but im lookin my best, not AS strong but pretty damn strong for being natural, my bench is still way in the 300's, squat is still hovering in the 400 range, even tho i rarely go heavy anymore i was just curious, and all my other lifts might of took a blow of 5lbs give or take but im content, I just have been doing a lot of reading that doesnt really make me feel safe under HRT just personal opinions of articles and talkin to my doc so this was a personal decision and for my girl. plus a buddy of mine has won 7 npc titles in a row competing natty and destroying all the other competitors that are all jacked up on juice, its about symmetry AND DIET LOL (i gotta add the diet part in there because people forget, my buddy already knows i am crazy about diet so he left that out in his serman to me lol) he said its about taking your body and molding it as if it were like clay. anyone can pin a substance and lift something heavy, but to do it in such a way where it becomes an art will it THEN show.

Why did you decide to come off hrt?...What negative effects did you have while on hrt?

again it was for personal reasons. it was to see if i can go natural utilizing the knowledge i know now that I didnt before. no neg sides while on hrt except being aggitated when levels would flucuate or acne yea the acne was a doozy. plus being off now for 4 weeks my skin is CLEAR and my moood is steady and level plus I believe the prime is helpin me out in the libido department
