Have you had a blood test and can you tell us your T level? To answer your second question, in my opinon, if your axis is not working and you therefore test out as low on T, then yes you should feel better all over, mentally as well as physically with TRT. I am primary and secondary and I shoot 1/2 cc of depoT in my leg every seven days. I am feeling better than I have in over a year in many ways. norton norton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Before going on TRT, It would be good to get a full hormone profile to see if there's anything suppressing your hpta. such high Estradiol or Estrogen values. > > i dont know whether i am primary or secondary. i know i have been > losing strength and have severe depression. if my hpta axis is not > functioning and i get trt, will my strenth increase?

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Hi, you mentioned small stature and concern about penis size. Do you have any sexual or low lidido symptoms too? (I'm trying to get an idea of whether low T is causing depression and weakness, or depression is causing weakness and low T.) Classification of hypogonadism as primary or secondary can only be done by a doctor. My Wild Ass Guess is you're secondary. Yes, if your hpta axis is not functioning, TRT will increase your strength.
