Did you have morning/nocturnal wood with a high Shbg? I don’t but then idk if that’s the problem

That’s natural, and even seen just shy of 1000. But my endo said my testes were on the small side. I’m not on any hrt. I took a liquid vitamin D in December before the test. Just a small dose every day or every other day. Thought I was deficient after working for years with not much sunlight...

SHBG and my crazy vitamin D when I was supplementing. Thyroid panel soon when my account is recovered.

Not kidding when I say this, but I feel like a eunuch.

Here’s one set while I look for the comprehensive thyroid panel. Thanks

I was far from starvation but still had symptoms of low blood sugar, but also thyroid issues. Such as couldn’t stand the cold at all, I’d walk a very short distance to my car in 35F degrees and would shiver hard for 10 minutes until I could drive. Or in warm weather, a short walk would have me...

My SHBG is high. I believe I ruled out all other causes of high SHBG- sensitive e2 is on the lower end of normal, increased my Vitamin D to well over 100, natural testosterone is 8-900, and DHT is normal. Last cause is thyroid. Comprehensive thyroid panel was good except for a very high reverse...

It started with low T symptoms, so I went to a researcher/professor endocrinologist at a university hospital. Said my symptoms would likely go away. They didn’t. Started having BPH symptoms and thought that lack of orgasms could be enlarged prostate so I mistakenly took saw palmetto that...

I had it a few months. If you can handle thick petroleum jelly feeling in your nose all day, then natesto should be fine. Did you try progesterone or any of the upstream hormones to counter anxiety?

In my opinion there’s 2 approaches, do a comprehensive male hormone test and narrow down the problem (free t is already low), or just try peptides, hormone replacement or SARMs. Lots of peptides are pituitary, hypothalamus, or growth hormone stimulators. I’d try MK677 and something like RAD140

I enrolled with Defy in 2017 and it is one of my bigger regrets. And the problems were everywhere, not just the system. I will go into detail if they don’t want to refund me. I have no choice after losing 2 jobs and quality of life went to 0 since trying the horrid protocol. Had to get out of...

I’ve had gyno beginning with corticosteroids from asthma treatment in 5th grade. It’s caused me embarrassment, and I overtrained in college years ago to manage it as best I could. I didn’t know it was caused by hormones. I regrettably took Saw Palmetto and it reverted back as I couldn’t workout...

Are you on a DHT inhibitor like finasteride? If not, I’ve seen a case where a guys hormones where too high and the doctor had to stimulate the enzyme through supplements that excretes hormones out, and patient saw improvement

Hey all, I’m wondering if I used HMG, would I have either shutdown of LH or FSH, or any other side effects? I have seen an endocrinologist that thinks I have an androgen insensitivity and/or sertoli only syndrome. I had a better reaction with TRT than HCG, so also thinking about using HMG...

Absolutely necessary to test “sensitive estradiol”, DHT, and salivary cortisol. Then up the vitamin D, and give progesterone bio identical cream a try, starting small, since your progesterone is low but too much could also interfere with androgens if overdone. Too little progesterone interferes...
