*** Post your Adiol-G (3alpha-androstanediol glucuronide) blood test results

Adiol-G testing had not yielded any results that can be acted on, yet.

Hm ok. I am wondering why it is still being said on this page that this is the most important Hormone one should check:

So I already went through many threads on this forum but I cannot find a common theme. Those are the things that I know about myself:

My symptoms:

during Propecia:

.) took Propecia for ~ 1 year
.) 1/2 year after start of Propecia -> sperm changed a lot. more amount, more fluid and translucent
.) 3/4 year after start of Propecia -> friend told me that I seemed really depressed. I could feel it myself.
.) Discontinued after ~ 1 year

after Propecia:

.) In the first weeks and months I noticed no change
.) 3 months after I stopped I broke up my relationship cause I felt unhappy. It made me even unhappier and I got really depressed during that period
.) 6 months - First started noticing ED but it was very slight
.) 10 months - still had good erections (no need of Cialis or anything) though I noticed that the feeling in my penis got less.
.) 12 months - first time of failed sex.
.) 1 1/2 loss of libido. Could achieve sex but it was hard to sustain errection. Had to stop, pull out and “give a hand” every now and then
.) 2 1/4 years - first time my penis did not react AT ALL. Sex IMPOSSIBLE
.) 2 1/2 year - doctor prescribed me Cialis (5mg/day) -> at beginning heavy errections. Long and sustaining. I took them for 2 months. At the end errections were not that heavy like in the beginning. Like my Body got used to it. But can that be in the case of Cialis?
.) 2 1/2 years - noticed that left chest got feminine like fat tissue
.) 3 years after Propecia and half a year after Cialis -> can get errections now and then. But they don’t last long and are not so hard.

Symptoms:

.) Libido is not like before Propecia. It comes and goes, but even on high points it’s not like I’d call myself “horny”.
.) Less feeling in penis
.) ED
.) contraction of penis and scrotum. Cold feeling. Also in my feet and hands sometimes.
.) poor sleep (that got better within the last year - I started dreaming again for the first time a while ago. Before I had dreamless nights, always in a half-sleep stage)
.) more fat in the chest area. I only noticed that half a year ago. I didn’t gain weight. Just gained fat, mostly in my left chest. Has a feminine kind of look. I used to have fat in that area before but it looks different now (I noticed this before I read about PFS)
.) heavy depression (even went to psychiatrists) -> but have also been getting better within the last year. But on some days it’s like something in my brain changes and I suddenly just want to lie in bed for 3 days in a row. Actually I don’t even wanna do this, at that time NOTHING interests me and I have thoughts of suicide (though I would never do it cause I know that it Ends normally after 3 days)
.) the feeling of standing next to yourself and watching yourself. A passive, dreamy feeling. As if you were watching life through a fog bank. Is it called brain fog?
.) anxiety Problems. Cannot be co-driver in a car. It feels like I’m in a rollercoaster.
.) When looking someone in the eye I have the feeling of fainting. I cannot really explain this.
