I was 48 when I noticed a lack of energy and interest in sex. I informed my physician about this and was tested for Low T. My test results came back at 100. Started on a regiment of gel. Very expensive. Switched to Cypionate...much cheaper. I inject 200mg. every three weeks. Have been on it for 6 months. I have noticed a slight increase in libido, morning erections, and a better since of well-bein ... Show Full Comment

I've been cyp for 6 months and I feel great. My T level was 219 before I started and is still low at 275 but my energy is way up. Wish I had started sooner. No negetive side effects that I can see. I'm on 2ml every 2 weeks. Its easy to inject and the boost the next day is good.

Comment:
Started having loss of libido in 1997, which led to the breakup of a relationship. Was extremely depressed, lost interest in everything, little or no energy, felt run down, lethargic, and no idea why. Finally last year my Dr. checked my T level, and it was 80! The normal range is something like 600-800 (on avg). I began taking 0.35ml every 3 days, starting 6 months ago. I have yet to experienc ... Show Full Comment
