New labs. Free T low? TSH dropped from 3.9 to 2.5.

Hey all,

I posted before here: https://www.excelmale.com/forum/sho...estion-issues-brain-fog-little-motivation-etc

Since then I went full Paleo for about 2 months, though now I am not so strict with it. Most of my symptoms have subsides a good amount, but I am still not 100%. Definitely room for improvement.

The nurse who gave me my results said my Free T was a bit low. Is that true? Total T looks fine I believe.

My TSH has come own to 2.5 from 3.9. Should I take some sort of thyroid support supplement to bring it down even lower?

My stomach still has issues and I was diagnosed and given many antibiotics for H. Pylori. I just finished them a couple of days ago so I am not sure if they helped, or just made things worse.

My cholesterol is high now. I am not sure if that is from an increase in fats from Paleo, or if it's been high for a long time, because I haven't had much blood work done in the past. I do seem to recall being told one of my cholesterol numbers was high several years ago, but I don't remember much from that conversation.

One of my white blood counts is slightly elevated, and it was 6 months ago as well. My doctor doesn't seem bothered by this.

A bit of a ramble here. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks all!

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.
