I believe you. Maybe you were not super unhealthy. I definitely was.

The "man up" mentality here is a way to deal with PFS. For some people that works others not. I found that mentality helpful for me especially at the start. I was a complete mess. And sometimes manning up and temporarily suppressing your emotions and going hard at it can get you through the hardest points of PFS. You were probably not THAT bad in the sense you didn't need that. Some people do.

Was it 100% based in reality? No. But I said it before this website was one of the only ones who went at it hard. Instead of completely depending on studies, doctors, waiting, etc. Cdsnuts came up with something YOU can do today. And some of it really does work. E.g. the herbs are estrogenic, DHT-like, etc. they do stuff in the body. Also contain minerals.

You seem to be 100% convinced HCG, TRT, etc. would work for you. But it's hard to be 100% sure as I used both and had mixed (mostly negative) results as an example. That's why Id like to see you try some of this stuff. Then you can talk with conviction.
