Thanks for this board and all those who take time out of their day to support it. This is my first post here so go easy on me.
A while ago I was diagnosed with testicular cancer. It spread through my body. I ended up losing a testicle and going through chemotherapy. During chemo my remaining testicle shrunk and never really returned. Right now my oncologists consider me cured, cancer free, and at no greater risk to any other cancer.
I've used steroids off an on since '95. I'm currently 5'6" 220lbs offseason. Squat/dead 5 plates. Bench 4 plates.
After being diagnosed with cancer and going through chemo obviously I threw in the towel and decided to keep clean during my recovery. Everything returned to normal. I've never been so excited to grow back hair. I could tell my testosterone was low. No sex drive. Low energy. Depression. Etc. I had some leftover cypionate I started using and felt 100% better. I thought I probably would qualify for HRT but I had leftovers and I get cyp for cheap as fuck so I cost:benefit ... didn't really want to be bothered with the doctors.
My oncologist wants to do a testosterone check because I've developed some gyno. A hard lump. Apparently my cancer, germ cell cancer produces HCG and gave me a lump. I've been cycling 200mg test cyp and 200mg test decanoate per week and I pop a 1/4 (2.5mg) tab of letro a few times a week. 200mg of test decanoate with a half life of 15 days isn't going to get out of my system until mid fucking December. I have to put of this test. I was thinking of donating some blood a couple times and just claim to be working out of town for a while.
After all that babble ... do you guys think HRT would be worth it vs. juicing? I wasn't sure if I should ask this in the HRT forum because I'm really asking about cycling on my own.
The positives of TRT would be a legal script. I am a family man. Its HG gear. The bad thing is I probably couldn't shoot a lot of testosterone and my goals are like anyone here size/strength. I'd have to probably cycle short esters (prop/tren/drol cycles) and time gear use around the blood work.
The positives of moderating my own use is clear. I can get cheap testosterone. I honestly believe 400-600mg of testosterone is a safe dose for years. I couldn't get that with TRT. I can bump it up as needed without worry.
Anyways appreciate any feed back from guys who cycle vs. TRT.
