It was just injected with Synacthen for the test. I did’nt know you could take it like a medication.
I look forward to hearing how you get on.
I’ll post but u have to wait cause it’s 1 ijection per week than just wait next weeks to see what happens…
I’m a stupid…after 3 years ,tonight I remember that I have a testosterone test done before propecia…it is just about total testosterone,FT3,FT4,not about free testosterone etc …do you think it could be useful to understand?..
tom I’ll search for it at my mum’s house and write all my hormone’s profile.
new androstenedione test:
androstenedione 3,35 ng/ml RANGE 0,7-2,5
Italy, this test is for Androstenedione (precursor to Testosterone), not Aldosterone (since you state it’s an Aldosterone test).
I understand it,but I have androstenedione out of range .
When I wrote above my results I was wrong about writing the androstenedione’s range…
I have ANDROSTENEDIONE 3,35 and the range is 0,7-2,5
what I wrote about it above is wrong (the range)
yes sorry guys,i did a mistake with all this similar names…but I HAVE ANDROSTENEDIONE out of range…
sorry MEW.
today was my 3rd injection and I can say again for sure that I had strong fucking erections (I say STRONG )and more libido…
in these 2 weeks things are better,but still have little/not spontaneous erections…so for me, I can say that adrenals can really be a problem to fix… I’ll post more.
I have very high Androstenedione as well 557 (151-350 pg/ml) but low Testosterone 31 (50-80 pg/ml). As Mew mentioned there must be something wrong with the enzyme that converts Androstenedione to Testoterone, that is 17B-HSD.
to.robin, if you haven’t pls read through this thread as it mentions muscle wastage and 17B-HSD.
for to.robin:
did u ever test ACCTH level ?..try to ask about it,my doc was interested about it saying me I have an high one .
Mew; I have read this and am trying to digest it.
Italyside effects; I posted about this on page 1 of this thread
cheers
it’s 2weeks waiting for my doc calling me back…he said me thet he 's looking and asking for some other doc that have the same usa suffers…so today he called me.
He gave me CIPRALEX (SSRI) saying that other docs used it with fina suffers and it worked well…he said me that fina by "moving"hormones fucked up neurotrasmission too,and using this drug will help me to restore the situation.
I ve read that SSRI are not good (also for sexual function) ,so guys what do u think?..onestly I’m a little afraid to try it ,but doc said me that other docs used it with success (in fina suffers).
Reply please.
thanks
The most frequent adverse events reported with Cipralex are nausea, insomnia, problems with ejaculation, somnolence, increased sweating, fatigue, decreased libido and anorgasmia.
Great drug & great doctor.
Sorry but your doctor seems to be a lunatic. Drugs from this family are killing sex drive. Even people who have just a little in common with medicine or visit their doctors very rarely know that.
Noooo! Don’t take SSRI’s please. This will fuck you up. The neurotransmitters that you need to recover the most are Gaba and Dopamine. SSRI’s restore Serotonin, wich you give you more sexual side effects. Discuss with your doctor the possibility of taking Wellbutrin - antidepressant that acts on Dopamine.
There are other alternatives: Aderral (To treat ADD, but used as a treatment of depression in some cases - acts on dopamine too). Ritalin, or as a last resource Levodopa (dompamine precursor). Talk to your doctor that higher dopamine will increase your sex desire, but higher serotonin (SSRI) will definetely not.
Question: How’s your thyroid homones and Prolactin?
are u all sure?..cause he said that another doc did the same to treat propecia suffer…i won t take it…but how can i say to him,he s the only one helping me now…
anyway tank u so much.
I am sure you can check this drug, because I know there is only a little (if none…!) drugs on the market that can actually do as much harm to men as finasteride or dutasteride.
The thing that I know (so my mother or a grandmother knows) drugs from this family are riping out sex drive.
SSRI’s or most drugs that inhibit dopamine and increase serotonin can sometimes permanently ruin sex drive like propecia.
Indeed, one only needs to do a search on Google or Youtube for “Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction” to see these drugs can wreak havoc on sexual function… this is pretty well known.

Anyway, good luck with whatever you decide. I thought the ACTH injections were helping?
ACTH injections helped me a lot,they reduced 80-90% brain fog and now I have better erections easier to obtain but still not so horny and not spontaneous erections like prefina and still some kind of fatique is present, but ACTH really helped me .(they were just 6 inkections prescribed)…anyway thank u so much for the replies,I’ won’t use this new drug for sure and I’ll call my docc back and post u more…
thank u again guys !
