TRT And Cortisol

[albert9000]

Can someone explain to me the relationship with TRT and cortisol?
I have very high urine cortisol numbers and im trying to bring them down.
cortisol is around 140 normal being (0-50) ive ruled out cushings.
I recently started TRT (3 weeks ago) and i heard it can help lower cortisol as well.

If you can I would have the 4 x saliva test throughout the day to know how your adrenals are working throughout the day

I haven't done saliva tests during the day but i have done 3 saliva tests at night. they were all normal. Also a few serum cortisol, morning, night that were normal (one being slightly out of range high) also did a dexamethasone suppression test.
