Suggest Treatment To Reduce Testosterone

Hello, I am 27 years old, from Bulgaria â?? Sofia. I am practicing body-building actively and I have been taking anabolic steroids since several years. Recently due to my participation in a republic contest of bodybuilding I decided to make exams to find out what is my current condition after steroids administration and is the recovery of my organism after the diet goes well as it is expected. The results of my blood exams were not very good and showed low ranges of testosterone although the estradiol hormone ranges were high. After several visits to specialist endocrinologists and andrologists I was advised not to take or make anything despite my desire to try a treatment with pregnyl. One of the endocrinologist I was at told me that if within two months the tests shows the same ranges of low testosterone I will never recover myself and I will be fated to be testosterone dependent for life. I am not positively sure that the website is supported by specialists and I addressed my problem to the right place but I have no other options and I will be very glad if you can advise me to whom should I turn to or the treatment I should follow. Thank you very much in advance!

Hello,

I will suggest you the same, not to use anabolic steroids as steroids has a lot of side effects. one of them is low testosterone levels.if u withdraw these steroids your hormonal levels will slowly recover to normal over quiet some time. Maybe a few months... There is no role of pregnyl in your case as it is a gonadotropin which will work only if your gonadotropin levels are purely low on its own (if that is cause of low testosterones), but in your case cause is steroids.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
