I have semi hard erections Mostly in night. What it’s mean?
I don’t know about my libido i think it ok but could be better.
It means what you just said. You gave no further details, and in relative terms none of that is really that bad.
Prolactin 193.4 mu/l (45-375)
Estradiol (e-2) 84 pmol/l (it not mention)
Tsh 1.55 mu/l (0.27-4.20)
Testosterone total 16.9 nmol/l (9.4-37.0)
SHBG 34 (10-57)
Free androgen index 50.30 (20-96)
Lh 7.4 iu/l (not mention)
Fsh 2.8 iu/l not mention
This is my blood test month ago or little more.
I also have low vit d and white blood cells
Ok, by no means am I medical doctor but I have seen many, many hormone profiles over the years. A doctor would look at your results and most likely dismiss you because everything is in range. However for a 23 year old it seems your total testosterone isn’t all that great while at the same time you LH is fairly high, not off the charts by any means but abit high. LH is generally = to or <5, all this means is that you body is trying to get more testosterone out your leydig cells and isn’t having as much luck at it as it would like.
You should read into hypogonadism. While you are not technicall hypogonadal you maybe borderline. This is something that has been found to be caused by propecia (finasteride) and even raising testosterone levels did not cure the issues.
So what can i do?
3 weeks after i stopped fin my lh was 4.2 .
I took fin only 2 months , 0.5 mg every other day.
And now i 5 months off.
I read that lh range is 7-12 iu/l
And what about my estradiol ? Zinc picolinate can help?
Hey,
Your blood test look like mine.
You cant get a range for that estrogen?
How is ur libido?
I think my libido is ok but low then post fin.
I don’t find estradiol range. What do you do about the sides?
If your range is like mine for your estradiol. Your estradiol is almost optimal at this level. Did you get SHBG tested?
You LH is high. You could try a few weeks on low doses of testosterone to see if that makes you feel better. Something like 30mg every 3 days or something. This would only be a trial.
My SHBG is ok .
How can i know if i have estrogen dominance?
well its hard to say. Your SHBG does not really seem that low.
Have you tried any experiments?
As your LH is high and your T is low and your estrogen seems ok. I think your best bet would be a trial of TRT. Have you considered this?
I started maca 2 week ago and maybe little improvment in nocturals erections .
And also zinc but gluconate not picolinate for 3 days and not sure.
Trying a few weeks on testosterone would be your best option for now.
But i only 5 months off fin, maybe it’s not the time for hormon’s replacement.
Maybe or maybe not. You can wait years and hope you get better.
A trial on TRT has very little risks. It is a natural hormone. If you keep doses low and do not stay on for many months you should not take long to recover.
Otherwise you can screw round trying herbs, zinc and a whole bunch of crap not know if actually increasing testosterone will help.
If i use trt it is for all my life?
No you can simply run a test for a week or a month and if you do not feel anything quit. You may have a few days or week after you quit where you do not feel so great but you will bounce back. If your testicles do start shrinking just stop or add very low doses of HCG.
If it works and you feel great. Then TRT is for life if not just quit.
