Could it happen?

[Guest guest]

If the T they injected was getting converted to estrogen - which is a

high probability with injections - it could have had a negative

effect on his libido. Once the injections stopped and his estrogen

levels dipped again, it could account for an increase in his libido.

And if his body was producing its own T before the injections, it

should have started producing again once the injections were

discontinued. I don't know if or why his body would produce more T

than it had before, though. With other medications - like HCG -

sometimes the body gets " jump started " into producing normal levels

of T.

If your sex life levels off again, I'd be inclined to think that the

change is hormonal in nature, and I'd pursue ways to get his T raised

while keeping his estrogen low. If he goes back on T - and injections

are one of the WORST ways to raise T - you might look into having him

take DIM, zinc and/or soy isoflavones. If his E is still high you

might see about geting an anti-estrogen prescription (an aromatase

inhibitor) like Arimidex.

Hope your luck continues!
