Nsaids , Clomid and testosterone replacement therapy post op after gastric bypass surgery



Recommended Posts

I quit Testosterone Replacement Therapy, after 2 years on it.

I was not on steroids !!!! Its testosterone replacement therapy, it makes a man at 40 years old, feel great, high sex drive, etc..

It is not pills and 5 different steroids going to you stomach. Its one low dosage intermuscular injection per week.

I do not drink alcohol, or smoke nicotine.

I quit cold turkey, ["weaned off, TRT with very low dosage weekly shot"], 5 weeks before my successfully , gastric bypass surgery , I am still currently off TRT probably forever.

I am 40 years old, ex powerlifter.

I am currently 6'3" 299 lbs , i lost 48 lbs as of today in 3 weeks.

I only choose gastric bypass surgery because my insurance covered it 100%, i knew it was not reversible, going in.

I was told I could continue TRT for life 4 weeks after post op. but now I read No NSAIDS and no Steroids , and they are to opposite things ???? because they can? cause ulcers in the new smaller stomach, and around the staple line.

That being, said I am prepared to quit TRT forever !!! But I don't understand why ? It makes no sense.

I know for a fact my natural testosterone will come back in a few months, being off TRT, I am not worried about that.

*****These are some things that I cant understand and it makes no sense to me , during 4 week post operation. *******

NSAIDS is an appreciation for "NONSTEROIDAL anti-inflammatory drugs" but then it says you CANNOT take Steroids' either ?????

Can someone please explain to me how that makes sense ? One is NON STEROIDAL and one is STEROIDALl ??????

Now on to the Clomid brand name drug name is clomiphene , it can be taken by men or women, i have read many posts about women using Clomid post operation to get pregnant !!! there doctors said it was fine but , as I did further research Clomid is a NSAID !!!!????? how does that make sense ???

Clomid taken by men post cycle therapy off TRT will help a man boost testosterone 200% i have done it before in the past it works bringing back natural testosterone levels. The Clomid comes in crushable form pills and liquid too, obviously because , after gastric bypass surgery, your body does not absorb medication like it did before.

This is a serious post for people who know what they are talking about please respond with personal stories or any knowledge or insight that you have would be appreciated thank you.

awesome thanks for the advice, i get what your saying. My surgeon is very strict and old school and very cut and dry, but a great surgeon, i can ask someone on his team. my surgeon doesn't believe in lifting weights ever only walking for the rest of your life he told me. and my dietician said yes, you can eventually lift weights again. my surgeon is just strict too strict.

men with low testosterone, even if they feel great now if they ever tried trt they would be shocked at how amazing it is. obviously before they had gastric bypass surgery its great.

thanks

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
