Last week I took the step to go see my doctor for testosterone issues as I felt that my libido, sex drive and erections have suffered significantly since a few years ago. What pushed me to go forward was my recent low drive in life, not having the same aggressive energy that I used to have, and when my doctor asked if I had any morning wood, I knew that was the kicker.
I have not had any morning wood for some years, never once was I concerned about it, until the doctor asked about it and I realised that was something that’s been missing.
So 3 years ago when I did a health checkup, my testosterone level was at 24.86 nmol/L, now the report came back at 15.4 nmol/L at the lower end of the range.
My GP, who I really like because he takes his time to explain and clarifies my concerns, told me that I can give Nebido a try 1000mg/4ml (Testosterone Undecanoate).
So came the injection with a whopping 4ml of oil into my butt (2ml on each butt cheek). I was afraid that the needle would hurt because so many reddit users said the giant needle was painful as hell, but when the needle entered there wasn’t any pain. As the doctor took his time to inject the oil, there was this growing discomfort (not pain but just a really sore feeling expanding inside my cheek) and I could feel some ache going down the leg. One needle of 2ml took about a minute to inject I think, so two of that on each cheek.
I started to ponder to myself, would I be doing this lifelong? Would it make my life much better? What’s going to happen from here?
I’d say this first experience was a good one, and surprisingly fast to get administered from my first consult.
I shall journal my experience as the days go by, what symptoms or improvements are felt.
