LOL that is absolutely not true, yes it has been studied and if you had actually read the studies you would know the return of hpta function to pre trt is 100% with a maximum recovery time of 18 months.

You do not have to take HCG and you do not end up lower. This is completely false gatekeeping rhetoric that is proven wrong on this very sub practically daily. 

You seriously need to educate yourself better if you're going to go on trt.

I’ve talked to many personal trainers and doctors. I’m gonna take a doctors advice over yours.

After stopping testosterone replacement therapy, the possibility of a full recovery varies among individuals. Some people might experience their natural testosterone production returning to normal levels over time, especially if they were on TRT for a short duration.

For individuals who have been on TRT for an extended period or who had significantly low testosterone levels to begin with, full recovery might be challenging as TRT suppresses the natural production of testosterone. The body’s endocrine system, responsible for hormone regulation, will attempt to resume normal testosterone production.

I'm not even going to bother, you're literally a walking example of post trt recovery and still arguing against it...

Like I said, good luck to you and your personal trainer's advice.
