I am 51 years old. Married to younger woman. We want another child and have been trying for 4 years. We have two girls- ages 9 and 5. Doctor put me on Testred pills 40 mg-80 mg. dose for 1 year and later switched me to Androgel 5g for low testosterone. Later found out that this has caused me to have azoospermia with testicular atrophy. Urologist and male infertility doctor have told me to stop taking pills and gel and avoid hot tubs. Any idea how long it takes for sperm production to return after using Testred and/or Androgel? We were shocked to find out no sperm and had no idea that these pills would cause this. Infertility specialist later prescribed HCG injections- 3,000 IU’s 3x/week along with Arimidex 1mg./daily for estradiol. After 6 mos., now testosterone, estradiol, FSH and LH levels are in the normal and fertile range but not sure how long it will take for sperm production to return? The only thing different since we had our last child is that I am now diabetic but it is well managed with medicine. Doctor is diagnosing me with Primary Hypogonadism- test. levels were low along with very high FSH and LH levels. Later ruled out pituitary tumor. From what I’ve read, HCG shots only help with boosting testosterone for Secondary Hypogonadism. Is this true? Any help anyone could give would be much appreciated. My wife desperately wants one more child. Thanks.

Hi Justin,
he said zinc inhibits the enzyme which responsible for converting testisteron to estrogen.

@Britter – Androgel, testosterone pellet implants, or injections are the only sure fire way to get your testosterone where it needs to be.

Best of luck!

Thanks for all for the helpful info.
Just got back from doc today with the news that my free testosterone level is at 5.8. He’s prescribed me these testosterone gel treatments — Androgel — once a day.

Anyone had any experience with these? Obviously I need to boost T a lot. Prefer natural, but he’s gone straight for the replacement via gel.

Any wisdom from the group?

Much appreciated

Calcium d-glucarate is an excellent anti oestrogen. Watch out for the environmental oestrogen’s – use google.

Try looking into DIM. It is a natural estrogen blocker plus has a lot of other benefits. My anti aging doctor put me on that and zinc with my HCG. DIM is found in cucumbers and other vegetables but is impossible/difficult to get enough by eatting the whole food.

I go to a anti-aging hormone replacement doctor.She prescribed HCG along with a estrogen blocker(arimidex) to boost my testosterone naturally.Best thing I ever did.Lost weight,sex drive was off the charts and felt 100% better about myself.I have also tried testoterone cream and did not like this method nearly as well as the HCG injections.You really should only do this under a doctor’s supervision because your blood has to be checked regularly.Its kinda like a balancing act to make sure you boost the testoterone to the right number or else it starts converting to estrogen.HCG changed my life forever.LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S.I have heard about the HCG diet where they put drops under there tounge but I was wondering if this is good for the sex drive as the injections are.Does anybody know??? Thanks

@Bruce – you should go and see an internal medicine doctor who specialize in hormones.
