How My Life Has Changed Six Months Into Professional TRT
By Steve
Six months ago, I made the decision to start professional Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT). It wasn’t a decision I took lightly, but after years of feeling like I was running on empty, I knew something had to change. Now, half a year in, I can confidently say that TRT has been a game-changer for me. Let me walk you through how my life has transformed.
The Energy Boost
Before TRT, I felt like I was dragging myself through the day. Even simple tasks felt like climbing a mountain. Now, I wake up with a spring in my step. The energy boost has been incredible. I’m not just talking about physical energy, though that’s been a huge part of it. Mentally, I feel sharper, more focused. It’s like someone turned the lights back on in my brain.
Mental Clarity and Mood
Speaking of mental clarity, the fog that used to cloud my thoughts has lifted. I used to struggle with anxiety, and while Lexapro helped, it didn’t address the root of the problem. TRT has given me a sense of calm and stability that I didn’t think was possible. My wife Jenny has noticed the difference too. She says I’m more present, more engaged with the family. And let’s be honest, when your wife notices a positive change, you know it’s real.
Family Life
Speaking of family, TRT has had a ripple effect on my home life. I’m more active with the kids, Sarah and Adam. We’ve been spending more time outdoors, whether it’s kicking a ball around or just going for a walk. It’s been great for all of us. Even my mum Mary has commented on how much more lively I seem. And if there’s one person who’s not afraid to give her honest opinion, it’s my mum.
Physical Changes
Physically, I’ve noticed changes too. I’ve put on a bit of muscle, and my overall strength has improved. I’m not saying I’m ready to compete in the next GAA match, but I definitely feel more capable. It’s been a nice confidence boost, especially as I’ve gotten older.
The Irish Weather and TRT
Now, let’s talk about the weather. If you’re Irish, you know how much the weather can affect your mood. This summer has been a mixed bag—some glorious sunny days and plenty of rain. But even on the dreariest days, I’ve found that my mood stays more stable. It’s like TRT has given me an internal sunshine that keeps me going, rain or shine.
Looking Ahead
As I look ahead, I’m excited to see how things continue to improve. TRT isn’t a magic bullet, but it’s given me the tools to live a fuller, more vibrant life. If you’re considering TRT, I’d say go for it. It’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
So, here’s to the next six months and beyond. Cheers!
