Stopped for 8 months. Was producing
A level of 300 by following dr Mercolas
Natural plan. Went back on Androgel per Dr. On the new 1.62 formula 3 pumps for 4 months. Was on 1% at 6 pumps. Actually did 4. 6 was too much
Now I'm noticing poor sensitivity to arousal. I was performing better without Viagra before I stopped and restarted HRT. Perhaps have my hemoglobin too high ? I try to donate blood per dr to regulate it as HRT causes hemoglobin to increase.
I eat healthy and exercise. Very fit
No changes made. But Perf is not what it was. Cholesterol and BP are good. Cholesterol under 200 BP 120/80

Are you on any other medications?

The HRT itself could be having an effect, due to the fact that your body has to rebalance your hormones.

How old are you? Age can also play a role, it is normal for arousal response and libido to change, as you age.
