3 types of PFS. Do you have higher DHT?

Hi,
Reading stories and recoveries we can assume there are three types of causes for PFS:

  1. Hormonal disbalance
    Low T or Low DHT or High E2 etc.
    Probably can be fixed by medical treatment
  2. Disfunction of organs mainly the guts and some autoimmune reaction
    Probably can be fixed with proper and strict diet
  3. Overexpression of androgen receptor: hypersensitivity and silenced receptors. The worst case scenario.

Im definately number 3 as I have very high DHT levels (higher that reference range) and way higher than before I stared fin.
No idea how to get back to normal…
Tried strict diet, weight lifting, cardio etc. for one year straight with no improvements.
Logical solution would be try fin or SP again but it is so scary…

Do you also have higher DHT compared to pre fin state?

Hi @Ev94

I noticed you haven’t completed the patient survey. When you have 30 minutes, could you please do so via the link at the top of the forum? It would be deeply appreciated and helpful for our research efforts.

Thank you!

I have type 3 and share the same thoughts. Getting worse is inconceivable but going back on fin could spell the end. Desperation drives the wrong actions. I took fin on and off for a decade and a half and im in a complete state but effectively did what youre suggesting withiut realising. Trust me its not worth it.
