I am realizing that most people who post on this forum only provide a few blood analyses hoping to get answers on why they do not feel at their best. It really is impossible to help anyone fully without determining factors that can affect health and quality of life that go beyond hormone levels. I suggest that anyone needing help copy and paste these questions with their answers along with blood work. This will ensure a comprehensive review and input from ExcelMale.com members.
