Due to some fertility problems, I have been forced to discontinue my testosterone treatments. It has been three weeks now, and I can already see and feel the difference in my psoriasis. The patches are getting thicker and redder, and I am seeing some new spots popping up in random places.
I certainly have no scientific evidence that this increase in psoriais is related to my discontinuation of testosterone supplementation, but what I can see and feel both lead me to that conclusion. One could argue that it is all in my mind, and that my mind alone is causing the increase in psoriatic symptoms due to the increased focus on them as well as the increased anxiety I feel about the whole thing.
The bottom line is that those testosterone treatments (for whatever reason) have really been the only thing in the last 30 years that really dramatically reduced my psoriasis symptoms. Large patches cleared up, my nails cleared up completely, and new patches stopped appearing.
I want my testosterone back!
Needless to say, I am heading to my endocrinologist for a new T script immediately after I’m done fooling around with this fertility crap.
