E2 Sweetspot - Larger Erection Than Normal?

[DS3]

Not sure honestly. Haven’t really seen many people experiment and try to raise low SHBG by improving their insulin sensitivity. Do u know where u sit insulin resistance wise?

What’s the best way to test for insulin resistance? Just test fasting insulin levels? Or do u look at insulin levels, A1C and fasting glucose levels, and make an assessment based on all 3?

Dr. Perlmutter stated that the truest measurement for blood glucose monitoring was A1C. I don’t have any measurements lately, but my fasting glucose was elevated while taking Ibutamoren. High fasting blood glucose isn’t normal for me otherwise.

As my estrogen approach ~60-70 pg/mL, my erections are as full as possible. When I knock estrogen down to 30-40 pg/mL, my erections are much softer and it is much harder to orgasm. Estrogen plays a critical role in erectile function.

That’s interesting. I’ve recently been taking raloxifene for a small gyno lump I’ve developed over the years. First thing I notice was a drop in erection quality. I figured it was the serms agonist activity on the ER in the penis, but maybe it is it’s antagonist in the penis instead
