Not an optimal hormonal profile for sure. Did you have any issues pre fin? Any problems now? Have you visited a doctor? Brain MRI?
hello there
yes, i’ve been visiting my doctor numerous times over the last 12 months. Because i have forced the issue and presented facts to him i am now seeing an endocrinologist and a urologist. The endocrinologist has told me he honestly does not know what to do for the best…he has written to a Professor of Medicine in Manchester to ask his opinion. In the meantime i am at the stage where i must take action…
6 months of completely clean living ie. diet, exercise, no drinking, no smoking, no stress has not changed anything.
I am 29yrs old, before this period in my life i was in great shape, played football twice a week and visited the gym regularly. Never had any health issues in my whole life. I was a successful graduate in real estate with a job in London. My sex drive was very very high…i could not get enough. Now my sex drive does not exist…i am asexual.
My diet is very healthy and the only thing i take is a teaspoon of pure cod liver oil in the morning.
2 days ago i started taking tongkat ali in the morning, i ordered it from indonesia. I have noticed my mood is slightly better, however i am very worried my gyno might get worse (for the last 18months i have had slight gyno on the left side). I am going to the doctors this week to request an anti estrogen medication…maybe arimidex. My estrogen is MASSIVE!! if i can reduce this i think it could make a big difference
I am 67kgs, 180cm tall, lean, sporty (or was until this fucked me up). I took propecia for 56 days and it has ruined my life. BUT i will never give up, i am thankful for what i have and i know there is a solution out there. I love feeling horny and i am determined to feel horny again.
peace
by the way, i never had any problems pre fin and the only problems i have now are down to my fucked up hormone levels from propecia. I can honestly put my hand on my heart with a balanced, resilient and rational mind and say that Propecia has FUCKED MY LIFE UP THE ARSE!! but it will not win. Good will prevail and i WILL GET MY FUCKING MOJO BACK IF ITS THE LAST FUCKING BASTARD CUNTING FUCKING TWATTING SHAGGING THINK I DO!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh WHY DID I TAKE THAT FUCKING POISON BY MY OWN FREE WILL!!!
Excuse my outburst
ehi pac, your story is very similar to mine propeciahelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1307 i’m getting every month worst since year 2003 …
as you can see i have low t, high cholesterol, high progesterone… but also very high dht… and in my case this can’t explain your theory about the vicious circle (5ar damaged —> more progesterone —> progesterone inhibit 5ar)
i’m very interested to see the results of your next exams with dht, progesterone and other values…
you have a lot of blood tests took at different times, so you can clearly see the evolution of the situation (for example t is always decreasing…)… but is also very important understand what is causing the decrease of t, if we understand that, we’ll understand what is causing our worsening…so, if you can, test all the possible values…
i hope we can fix the problem in the next future
