I went to my endocrinologist to talk about symptoms etc. I’ve been on Clomid for a month which raised testosterone from ~350 to 772. Estrogen is high as it always was, same with progesterone. He wants me to reduce clomid so estrogen detection in brain increases libido. I asked him if maybe high progesterone is causing problems and he said he’ll look into it.
Given some of the improvements with andractim (DHT) and arimidex (anti-estrogen). Is is maybe that by inhibiting DHT we became Estrogen dominant, and no matter what we do we can’t revert back. Sort of like a switch was turned. Maybe we should drive boosting not Test, but DHT really high and lower estrogen, maybe switch back and see what happens then. The whole epigenetic, immune, etc… doesn’t explain short term recoveries or recoveries at all. IHP may have improved with diet, but maybe it just allowed his body to fix the hormones properly (maybe the diet reduced estrogen so much his hormones switched back). I really feel this is an endocrinological problem/hormonal imbalance (went to two immunologists who rans lots of tests and said everything is normal, also I don’t show symptoms of immunological problems).
If in fact there is an epigenetic change, maybe pushing certain hormones in a specific direction with help?
