Yes. Higher levels of prolactin would play a role.
Told me not to expect immediate results. We are going to do Cabergoline .25 mg once a week for a month to two months check levels and see where they are. Increase dose from there or reduce dose depending on tests and how I’m feeling.
cabergoline from everything I’ve read is 4 months to stabilize hormone levels at .25 twice a week and I’m only doing one since my numbers are not crazy high.
Also, Even though my testosterone levels were not considered low by text book definition, my levels certainly were for my body and that’s the first thing she said to me. Blood tests 6 months apart show an almost 400 drop from 775 to 420. That’s significant and for my body that was low.
Testosterone has gone up some to above 500 and I’m still not feeling entirely great but all I can do is give it time.
I think my next step is to go to be a gastro to get stomach levels checked but I’m going to work with my endo to see who she recommends or if she recs one while taking any meds.
I will say that I’ve had this strange thing going on the past few weeks where it feels like morning erection is trying to happen after I wake up and continue for an hour or two while I’m having my morning coffee and the connection is trying to happen but it’s not quite there. Then slowly starts to fade. Not sure if good sign or bad sign.
