My sex drive and overall sexual enjoyment was higher with prolactin at 85ng/ml compared to 9ng/ml. One improvement ive noticed since starting caber is my glucose tolerance has increased a lot.

It is? I thought that was the standard starting dose. I’m on .25mg twice per week. My prolactin is 9ng/ml (2-18ng/ml). I have a prolactinoma. Before caber prolactin was 85ng/ml.

Dont take tren its not worth it. Be healthy, stick to trt.

Ive been on .25 mg caber twice per week for the last three months. Ive noticed decrease in sex drive and it takes longer to ejaculate

Hi goolapsh, so I had an mri because I have tingling sensations in my feet and hands. I also have migraines with aura. These symptoms prompted my gp to order the the mri to check for demyelinating disease. I recently had another mri of my spine to check for injury to my spinal cord. Thank fully...

My endo prescribed .25mg cabergoline twice per week. I dont need anymore evidence. I trusted my endos recommendation to wait til September to see what happens. He knows more about the subject than I do. I’m really starting to feel bad so I told him how I felt and he agreed to let me start...

I’ve read that high doses of b6 for long periods of time could cause nerve damage?

I did some blood work this Saturday. I just got the results. My total testosterone is 35ng/dL (265-916ng/dL) and my prolactin is 45ng/ml (4-15.2ng/ml). So I’m feeling bad right now. My prolactin dropped by almost 40% since stopping trt. I just told my endo I want to start cabergoline but he...

I’ve had the same experience. Compounded test has resulted in lower test levels when compared to pharmaceutical brands. I dont use compounded anymore.

So my last shot of test was June 1st. I was doing 40 mg every Monday and Thursday. My levels are probably low right now.

Thanks for posting that link Nelson. Very informative.

Nelson have you ever heard of trt increasing prolactin? My last prolactin result was 85ng/ml range 2-18ng/ml. My endo is not convinced the elevated prolactin is from the mass on my pituitary. He thinks trt could be causing my high prolactin levels.

Thanks bixt for the b6 advice

My test level before trt was 500ng/dl. Staying on trt is probably the right choice but I do feel some guilt about messing around with my hormones in the first place. Stopping trt wont be easy but maybe my body will bounce back. The only way to know is try. I will mention that over the last month...

Today I had an appointment with an endocrinologist. We decided that I should stop taking testosterone cyptionate and draw blood in 3 months to see where my natural levels are at. We will also test prolactin in 3 months and if levels have increased i will probably start taking cabergoline. So...

My intention was not to make this post about blasting and cruising. I thought it would be important to disclose everything that Ive done in the last year in regards to my hormones. I am not looking for advice on cycles or blasting. My point is that there are some doctors and people who are...

And my issue isn’t a “men’s health” topic? I can share my experience with this forum. Prolactinomas do have a relationship with estrogen. I’ve never heard anyone talk about this before. I’m sure many men on this forum don’t know anything about prolactin or pituitary tumors.

The prolactinoma came after doing the cycles. I’m positive because I had a cat scan done a few years prior to the cycles and there was nothing found on the scan. I also have ran prolactin blood work throughout the years and it’s never been out of range. I’ve been on trt for over 7 years.

I recently had an mri because of an elevated prolactin level on blood work. There is a small mass on my pituitary gland. Im bringing this up on this forum because over the last few years there has been a backlash against ai's. There actually is some research showing elevated estrogen causing...

Stop taking Arimidex. Estradiol is not bad.

Blocking estradiol shown to cause neurotoxicity and people still want to block aromatase....

For gym gains it’s not going to matter if you take the 160 and 40 or the 100x2.

i What are you taking right now?

Total and free test seem low for 36hr post injection. How do you feel at the end of the week?

Thanks for the reply Vince Carter. On my next blood test I’m going to try the lcms. I’ll share my results with the forum.

Has anyone tested thyroid hormones using LC/MS-MS instead of immunoassay testing? I read a study about the inaccuracy of the immunoassay when testing levels in the lower part of the range especially for free t3. My most recent free t3 level by immunoassay was 2.5pg/ml range 2.0-4.4pg/ml. With a...

A man that doesn't take testosterone has to make sure to eat well with adequate micronutrients and calories, get enough sleep, not be under a ton of stress etc... to maintain his testosterone levels or else levels will decrease. Someone on trt just has to keep taking testosterone and his levels...

Are you trying to lose weight? If you are restricting calories and doing lots of cardio the body is going to increase conversion to rt3.

Taking t3 without t4 to lower rt3 is not physiologic. Just take a lower dose of t3 with your t4

If the body has too much t3 it will increase conversion of t4 to rt3 to protect itself. Read tired thyroid.com
