Anti-Depressants-No Help--Now Testosterone Shots
by RANDO88, Jun 25, 2009 01:09PM
After trying 7+ different anti-depressants over a 8 yr. peroid having no results. I found that I still had no energy,no drive,depressed, just no zest for life. I finally had my testosterone checked (2 times) My total testosterone level was 195 & 203. Both low levels for a 54 yr. old male. I just started taking testosterone injections once per week in the last 2 weeks (2 injections-1 ml) I understand it usually takes up to 5 weeks for the full benefits. I was wondering if any one else found this method helpful?

Low testosterone can create the same symptoms in a man (Andropause) as a woman going through menopause. Mood swings, hot flashes/sweats, etc. With low testosterone you are unable to build muscle, and bones weaken. It has worked extremly well for my husband.

That's weird about the injections, I know there is a gel and a patch available. You might want to ask your doc :)
