I have been asked by a member to update my status after taking MT. It is as follows:
- Depression is still worse, on some days unbearable, has improved somewhat from the crash which I experienced after MT
- I am experiencing a decay of my genital region, to an extent which I never had in the 4 years since developing PFS. For the first time, I am also having a loss in my perineal area, which causes an instability of the link between penis and body. I have also developed a marked curvature, which I didn’t have before. My penis often feels cold again, accompanied by a burning sensation, something which I have not experienced in over two years.
- Hair loss has accelerated at a crazy rate. It seems that I am now going bald at the speed of light. I am experiencing a more or less constant burn in my scalp since haven taken MT
- My general body composition has gotten worse since taking MT
- Sexual function and libido have generally declined
- My tinnitus has gotten worse and I have since experienced a further decline in my hearing. Same goes for vision.
- My energy levels have generally declined am I am just feeling more sick again
All in all, I would estimate that taking MT for only a short while has set back my recovery process by about maybe two years. Having said this, I also very quickly developed side effects back when I was taking fin. It only took 25 pills back then to get me into this mess. I probably react very strongly to substances which inhibit AR activation.
Looking back, I would say that MT helped me for maybe 2 or so weeks. The positive effect even persisted for a short while after I stopped taking it. Then I crashed, which was very similar to the crash I had after quitting fin. My sleep was ruined for weeks, until it started getting a little better again. I was experiencing anxiety, feeling brain fogged and felt mentally dead. These aspects have improved substantially in the last few months.
That is all I can report at the moment. In conclusion I can say that my personal experience with MT was very similar to my experience with fin. I consider taking MT to be my worst personal decision since taking fin.
