Stinging nettle helps. Transdermal formestane w/wo DHEA is available OTC. Tamoxifen, raloxifene, toremifene, clomid; hCG. Heavy deadlifts and squats shortly before bedtime. Any resistance training will help.
Exogenous test = HPTA shutdown. Not what the thread-starter is looking for.
Another ironhead who trades! Outstanding!
I'm a former competitive bodybuilder, and atticus has given the best advice through out this thread.
And yes, once you start using exogenous testosterone, your HTPA shuts down, which basically means your Anterior Pituitary Gland will send a signal to the body: "hey don't make any more testosterone. Don't need to."
Could cause the Testicles to atrophy (shrink in size) requiring HCG injections, Clomid, and Nolvadex to "kick start" your own natural testosterone production back up restoring testicle size. No, testosterone will NOT make your dong shrink. LOL!!! That's an old bullshit tale to scare guys away from steroids. Testosterone IS what makes the "dong" grow as adolescents through puberty.
There is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much b.s. out in the media, etc., about TRT- Testosterone Replacement Therapy. Did you know that if low on test, you will be depressed, sluggish, can't think clearly, don't want sex, gain adipose tissue in the abdomen (Fat=diabetes)? and yes, even heart disease has been linked to low testosterone levels.
If you feel you're running on a "low tank," get a blood hormone panel done. You want free and total testosterone, estradiol, and yes, tsh to make sure the thyroid is doing it's job too.
Last, don't play baseball! You may wind up in front of Congress being treated like the Male version of a witch in the dark ages, as they waste millions of OUR tax $$$$
