I think I might be hitting the end of the road with the sauce. I've been running 400 test and 200 primo lately and the urinary issues have been getting pretty bad. I'm 43 now, and the urgency and having to get up to piss all night is just constant.

I saw my urologist today and he said my prostate is absolutely enormous, so now he wants me to get an ultrasound done. To be honest, I could feel this starting to flare up even when I was just on 200 test. For those of you who've dealt with a swollen prostate, does this actually shrink back down if you take a break and hop off, or am I stuck like this?

Man, I am so sorry to hear that. The middle-of-the-night bathroom trips are the absolute worst - it’s like you never actually get any deep sleep. At 43, things definitely start getting touchy down there. Most of the time it will shrink back down some once the DHT levels drop, but you gotta be patient. Definitely listen to the doc and get that ultrasound done just to be safe.

Honestly, the 200 Primo might be the culprit here more than the Test. Primo is a DHT derivative and it absolutely hammers the prostate for some guys. I had a similar scare last year and as soon as I dropped the DHT-based stuff and went back to a cruise dose, things cleared up in about a month. It usually isn't permanent, but it’s a huge wake up call for sure.

that sounds miserable bro. getting up 4 or 5 times a night just to trickle is enough to make anyone want to quit gear forever. usually it does go back down once the inflammation settles, but you might want to look into daily Cialis (5mg) - a lot of urologists prescribe it now for BPH and it’s a total game changer for the urinary flow. stay on top of it man!

It's the "cost of doing business" sometimes but it totally sucks when it hits you this hard. If even 200mg of Test is flaring you up, your body might just be super sensitive to conversion right now. It should shrink back once you're off, but definitely don't try to "push through" it. A huge prostate is nothing to mess with - keep us posted on what the ultrasound shows.

man that sounds like a total nightmare... i'm about the same age and the night time pissing is literally the worst for sleep. primo is notorious for messing with the prostate for some guys even though its a "mild" steroid. honestly mine shrank back down a bit once i dropped to a true cruise dose but everyone is different. definitely listen to the doc on that ultrasound though just to be safe.

sorry your dealing with this man. bph is no joke and 400 test is definitely enough to aggravate it if your already prone to it. usually once the dht levels drop back down the inflammation settles a bit- but if the tissue has actually grown it might not go all the way back to "normal" without some meds like cialis or flomax. hang in there bro.

i feel your pain man literally. i had to drop masteron and primo entirely because the urgency was getting insane... i couldnt even sit through a movie lol. for me it did get way better after about a month of just being on a low trt dose. definitely dont ignore the doc but dont lose hope yet- the body is pretty good at recovering once you stop the heavy stuff.

43 is right around the age where this stuff starts catching up to us unfortunately. i've heard some guys say that daily 5mg cialis is a lifesaver for prostate issues and blood pressure too- might be worth asking your urologist about while you wait for the ultrasound results. hope things get better once you clear the system!

damn dude an "enormous" prostate is the last thing you want to hear at the urologist. it should definitely shrink some once you pull the hormones but if its already that big you might just be super sensitive to dht. probably a good idea to cruise for a long while and see how the labs look. better to have your health than some extra mass at 43 man- good luck with the scan!

man, that’s a rough spot to be in at 43. i've seen guys say that once you drop the dht-heavy stuff like primo, the inflammation and "tightness" settle down pretty quick, but the actual tissue growth might stick around a bit longer. definitely don't skip that ultrasound though—enormous is a scary word coming from a urologist, and you want to make sure you're not dealing with anything worse than just bph.
