How to get off TRT?

Unread post by JP1985 »

Hi all, can someone help me with a protocol to get off TRT? The doctor recommends to come off it like this..

500iu HCG 3 x per week for 2 weeks
250iu 3 x week for 2 weeks
125iu 3 x week for 2 weeks
Tamoxifen 20mg every day for a week
Then stop everything and hormones should be back to where they were before starting TRT

I keep reading people here having problems from tamoxifen so I’m very worried to take it now 🤦‍♂️

If anyone could ease my mind or recommend something else to get off it that’s safe that would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Last pill March 2019 - Citalopram for 7 years
Numbed penis and weak orgasm
Fatigue
Slightly blunted
Dizziness (this has improved a lot in the last 6 months)

Not sure about PCT, but did you have any benefits from TRT? How long have you been on it now? I also took citalopram and have been considering trying this.

Not really, maybe a little more sex drive when I managed to get my levels right but hasn’t helped sensation or fatigue I don’t think. Been on it 2 years 4 months. I want to know what I’m like off it these days.. I started it literally as I stopped the citalopram.. I should’ve waited a while really.

Perhaps, yes, I also met some info tamoxifen is genotoxic and modificates some enzyme/receptor in a way I would think of harmful.
Not sure which alternative is the best to get off TRT.
