[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 20440, member: 3"] It seems to me that you have done a lot of good research. I agree that once you lose weight down under 200 Lbs you will see more benefits. Metformin, testosterone and thyroid therapy will help you in that goal along with the low carb diet you are following. You do not mention if you are exercising. Be careful with diuretics since they are known to cause erectile dysfunction. The low carb diet should help you lose water weight so that you do not need to take a diuretic. If you have to take a BP med, talk to your doctor about losartan since it may have metabolic benefits. Once you lose weight, your need for a BP med and a statin may disappear. Do you have lipid values, hematocrit and EGFR (kidney function)? Metformin has been studied in doses from 1000- 3000 mg per day. Your estradiol seems OK even with your high dose of 1.5 mg per week of anastrozole. I speculate that you may need that higher dose until your fat mass comes down. As far as ED is concerned, I would consider daily 5 mg Cialis for a while. For better sex drive, HCG 500 IU twice per week would not be a bad idea. Your lowest T level before the next injection is close to 500 ng/dL, not bad. [/QUOTE]
