Guest guest Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 I've been on Androgel/Testim since March 1st. I have neither lost nor gained any weight except for a pound here or there. So does this mean the replacement testosterone is not working? Or not enough? I'd like to know from you all how much weight you lost (or gained) while on testosterone therapy. Thanks, NYC __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 , I've been on Androgel 5g/day for 7 weeks and my weight hasn't changed. However, I have gone down a pant size. I guess I'm not losing any weight, just moving it around. -Dan > I've been on Androgel/Testim since March 1st. I have > neither lost nor gained any weight except for a pound > here or there.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Mine hasn't changed either. But then again my weight hardly ever changes. I'm usually right on 155 pounds or so. I weight the same now as I did 20 years ago. > > I've been on Androgel/Testim since March 1st. I have > > neither lost nor gained any weight except for a pound > > here or there.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 if you suffer like I did from fatigue and can't get any exercise you will not lose weight. I have been house bound for over one and a half years. I am doing better today about 2 months ago I started walking again and 2 weeks ago I joined Weight Watchers and in the first week following there program and walking 45 mins. a day I lost 8 lbs. in the first week. I never heard of TRT making someone gain or lose weight. You sould get more muscle back. Phil Merati <aquariusgwm@...> wrote: I've been on Androgel/Testim since March 1st.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 I too am on Testim. I started on it the first week of January, and I have lost 30 pounds. I need to point out that I go to the gym 6 times a week and do cardio everyday and work with weights and machines every other day. I need to lose at least 40 more pounds. I do feel better and have more energy than I did last fall when my t level had dropped to 187. My new urologist has now added Clomid to my therapy. I have been on it since four weeks and I have seen no change per se. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 , I lost about 20 lbs with shots. Have you had your blood tested since you started to see if your T levels are going up? I did notice when I went from 200mg every 10 days to 120mg every 7 days that I gained back about 4 or 5 lbs. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Mark keep an eye on the E2 this is what makes me hold water. Phil mdw1000 <mdw1000@...> wrote: , I lost about 20 lbs with shots.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Thanks, Phil! I will be getting E2, free and total T tested in a couple weeks. As usual for me, 1 day before and 2 days after the shot.
