“Getting the Old Me Back” — My Experience with Testosterone Therapy
Before I started treatment, I mostly just felt tired and mentally dull. I wasn’t as sharp as I used to be — I’d find myself struggling to think of things that used to come easily. It was frustrating and hard to explain.
In March of 2020, when Covid began, I started taking antidepressants. They helped to a point, but over time, I realized they were just masking the real issue — they weren’t addressing the root cause. That’s when I came across testosterone deficiency and decided to get tested.
My levels came back at around 4.5, which is quite low. Since starting testosterone therapy, my levels have increased to about 13 over the course of five to six months — and the change has been dramatic.
I feel a thousand times better. It genuinely feels like I’ve got the old version of myself back — only better. My energy, clarity, and motivation have all returned, and then some. It’s like everything I was missing is back in full force.
