An obvious question. Are you taking any medication containing Statins?

Although I wouldn't consider 1000 to be at all high I have never experienced any of the symptoms you mention. Have you had your thyroid checked? Have you checked your body temperature throughout the day over several days? The symptoms you refer to sound as though you are cold which could be from...

Nelson, I have been on Eplerenone for over a year now, starting at 25mg and now at the maximum dosage of 100mg for control of my blood pressure. For me it has had no side effects and has not increased my potassium beyond the normal range.

Both low E2 and low DHT can cause low libido. You have checked your E2 but not your DHT and although acne can be an indicator it is not a sure-fire indication.

Worried; I was not trying to scare or alarm you. However I speak from personal experience on these issues as many of us do. I have been living without a thyroid for the past 19 years after having it removed because of pre-cancerous nodules after fighting with thyroid issues for 10 years prior to...

I will speak only to the thyroid issue as everyone on here has already spoken to the abysmal protocol you are following which your doctors are calling TRT and you don't seem to acknowledge their near malpractice. So be it. Your doctors say your thyroid hormones are “normal”. They are not when...

Relax. Now that you have ceased taking Anastrozole your E2 will gradually adjust to normal. Many worry about keeping it low but a bit on the high side is fine, in my opinion, as long as you are not having symptoms. In fact your libido and general health may be better with it on the high side. I...

There is much debate about whether oral chrysin works due to absorption issues in many people. Perhaps the cream is better for absorption but I have seen no studies. I agree with Coastwatcher comments.

I have never heard of or used chrysin cream but it has been used in tablet/capsule form as well as an ingredient in testosterone enhancers in the weightlifting and body-building community for decades to reduce the aromatizing of testosterone to estradiol.

Ezeradavis, I am not sure I fully understand your question. Can you give me more detail of what you are requesting?

For those who require it to maintain their A1C and their glucose levels within a healthy range, Metformin may be necessary, however everyone should be aware that one of the side affects is a reduction of Androgen levels which is not beneficial to those attempting to increase or maintain their...

I have taken 3000 mg/day divided throughout the day for the past 10-15 years and it has never reduced my libido.

Leno, I would try it at a low dose to see if it helps your insulin resistance. I would not exceed 20-25 mg until you have had much more testing and have evaluated the results.

Working at a computer or even reading in some people can cause dry eyes because our blink rate decreases when we stare at a screen or book. Blinking is essential to spread a fresh tear film over the eye.The dry air from home/office and car air conditioners also make matters worse. Follow...

Don't confuse low insulin levels with Insulin resistance, Leno78. They are not at all the same thing in fact Insulin resistance is almost the inverse of the other.
