You left out lab ranges and units of measure. It’s a tough sell that your estrogen is 78 pg/mL with a TT @397 ng/dL.

So much critical info missing here, you’ve basically provided three labs and claim to want to feel better as if sleep, diet and exercise don’t factor into feeling good.

You haven’t given this much thought. You get out of this what you put into it.

Inflammation or high c reactive protein markers can falsely elevate the estrogen when using non sensitive testing methods.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
