It looks like you might get the best of possible outcome, possibly even better than not getting T. You will now appreciate the silence, and will be able to be mindful to not take risks that can result in your getting an acoustic trauma and getting a Serious case of T that lasts a lifetime.
The "retracements" are normal. As long as the trend is downward and it is making new lows or spends more time each week at a low, you are making progress. It might take 2 years, but eventually it will be gone for good.
When it comes to forecasting one's likelihood of recovery, what matters is the monthly trend and the global lows. What happens on any given day (e.g., a spike) isn't important.
