Can Sudden Cessation Of Testosterone Therapy Cause Side Effects Or Withdrawal Symptoms?

default
Posted on Thu, 12 Jul 2018
Question: I have been receiving testosterone therapy for approximately 8 months. I receive 250ml of testosterone enanthate, once a week. The effects of the testosterone have not been that powerful, I feel a little more youthful, and have not noticed much else. I have not experienced any negative side effects. I would like to discontinue the therapy for a few months, mostly due to convenience. My question is, is it safe to simply stop or do I need to take something else once I stop to boost my natural testosterone production?
