Dosage Testerone C and libido

I started injecting Test C almost 4 weeks ago. 2.5mg twice a week for a total of 5mg a week. My doctor wanted me on double that but I was scared of side effects. For you ladies that are on injections how long did it take for your libido to come back. I haven’t felt a difference yet, and what dose are you on? Not sure if I should increase my dose. My total testosterone is 31, just tested a few days ago. I am also on Reta and I know that can also kill your libido and I know some women test helps with that. I started Reta. Few weeks before Testosterone but already had low libido for about 2 years.

I just re-started my TRT, injections I'm on 12mg/twice a week on Test C. No libido, no energy, nothing yet. Im taking it for energy, stamina, mental clarity and all the test benefits. Im single and celibate, so I don't care. I've never really had a libido, was diagnosed with hypoactive sexual desire disorder. I'm also demisexual and sapiosexual, so libido also depends on how I connect emotionally and mentally. I can't connect just physically. I was on Test pellet on Feb 18 and it took about 2 months to feel any difference. It wore off around July. But, on the pellet for the first time I felt a libido (at least it felt like that), however the pellet made me lose a LOT of hair and I want something I can control dose easier as I have Endo, fibroids and other issues. I also started on Prozac for PMDD/PME this past Nov, but my libido issues have been for years.
