    A Cautionary Tale...

    I do have some feedback on him that I'd like to share. But first let me talk to Nelson and get another second opinion before I share. I just want to be sure that my feedback (both good and bad) is coming from a well-informed place, if that makes sense. Thank you again for the recommendation.

    A Cautionary Tale...

    Hi All: I had an appointment with Dr. Rob and also got updated labs. Will share on those shortly, but I'm still waiting for clarification from Dr. Rob on something. In the meantime, I think I need another opinion... Any other doctors that anyone can recommend? Is there anyone on this site that...

    All, thanks for for the feedback. I'll report back after I got new labs and have discussed with Dr. Robert Kominiarek. Will keep everyone posted.

    A Cautionary Tale...

    Well the idea is to start with with the medications that seem to have coincided with my drop in libido, which was ozempic. i'm not at all ruling it out, though, and will definitely give that a try should stopping the ozempic not work.

    No change yet from the ozempic.

    Not yet. I've been off the ozempic for maybe 1-2 weeks to see if that changes anything first. I'm also going to have a consultation with Dr. Rob Kominiarek. Hopefully he'll have some insights.

    @BJE @madman Thank you for your insights. Sorry it took some time to respond. Sometimes Excel Male sends me a notification; sometimes it doesn't. By the way, one thing I've neglected to mention is that I've been in a caloric deficit for some time since I'm on a cut. In the past when I've cut...

    @aloetard and @madman please see attached. I went through and added the reference ranges and assay types. Couple things to note: I double and triple checked and all the units listed across all the tests for FT was pg/mL. This is the case even with the order of magnitude difference you're seeing...

    @aloetard I just saw the rest of your post. Let me read through it. Please ignore my last post. Will read through yours first and understand it better. My bad.

    A Cautionary Tale...

    I'm sorry. I'm not fully familiar with all the terminology. I'm attaching August 2022 (Labcorp) and January 2023 (Quest). As you can see, the free testosterone listed for both is in pg/mL. But that can't be the case since because of the order of magnitude difference in the numbers. This was...

    A Cautionary Tale...

    @aloetard and @sammmy : I think you're misinterpreting my last comments. I don't want to get on TRT. It's actually the opposite. If you read my original post, here's what I wrote: "My doctor (not a TRT clinic, but an actual doctor) put me back on clomid to see if that helps. If it doesn't I...

    A Cautionary Tale...

    Thanks, will order the test. Are there any doctors you guys can recommend, by the way? Looking for someone, ideally in California, that has deep knowledge on all of these biomarkers, hormone abnormalities, treatment options, etc. etc. Someone who can take a look at everything and help with a...
