Thanks for the response. I guess I should clear up a few things that I omitted from the original post. There are other symptoms that would have lead to the belief of high e2 not listed. However, as we share the same goof Dr you are aware that he is not a knee jerk kind of guy and the...

decimal point error. should read .25mg (quarter tab)

Been awhile since I posted so I figured I would come back with a question to test everyone. I'm actually hoping that Nelson might have an opinion on this. I am secondary Hypogonadism brought on by Hereditary Hemochromatosis and have been on TRT for over a year. My current protocol is 150mg of...

I'm on a Keto diet and eggs are a must.

thanks for the reply. They didn't run total Test but I know from December on 100mg, I was at 678 ng/dl with pre-TRT symptoms still.

Well, after a few months of looking at the care I was getting from he specialist I was seeing (highly regarded Urologist in Canada), I realized that the care was actual old school thinking and not looking at the all the hormones int he spectrum and the effects that TRT has on them. So, I've...

no, those aren't actual numbers. It was just for reference as to me saying mid normal. my GP was actually checking for a thyroid issue when she ran the thyroid panel and everything was normal in the higher mid range.

As for the 700 trough values. Still crashing hard to the point of almost falling asleep at my desk. Plus, I was under the impression that with injections twice a week, you numbers are fairly stable across the board without a lot of ups and downs. Because regardless of pre or post injection...

Okay, found the labs that have the SHBG. It was 37.8. As for the thyroid panel, I can't seem to find it but when I said mid normal, it was mid normal i.e. if the range was 2.4 to 8, i was 4-5 ish. Those labs will be redone in the New Year at my next yearly. I am considering the drive to...

johndoesmith, yes, 50 mgs 2 X per week (3.5 days) the 500 iu HCG is the day before the Test. The blood was done the day of my next injection, before my shot. As I said, its been 5 months on TRT. I wasn't expecting the shut down to be that fast, considering he HCG to mimic LH. The testing is...

Hey guys, I just got my latest blood work back in advance of my next follow-up which I moved up a month early due to major crashing and fatigue coming back in. I am bi weekly 50 mgs, 500 iu HCG 2X/ wk the day before my Test E shots. Here's the results and please remember, this is from Canada...

I'm a victim of the Celtic Cure aka hereditary hemochromatosis and also diagnosed secondary hypogonadism as a result. For me, the ferritin level at diagnosis was 2400 so pretty much a non brainer. However, people are diagnosed at much lower levels now as it has progressed from liver biopsy to...

When I got out on TRT my numbers had crashed below normal. I think TT was 5.7 nmol/l and free was below as well. Not sure what the urologist would say about the low numbers. When converted to ng/dl the fall into the range for TRT being an option, according to the nebido conversion scale. I...

Thanks for the reply Nelson. Btw, I grab a copy of your both and wish my biology and chemistry books from university were written so straight forward. So yes, he ordered estradiol not estrogen. Late night posting and not paying attention. As for details about the doctor. Dr Greenspan is...

Well, after thinking that I hit the jackpot with how well things were progressing with the various doctors and referral, getting set up on sub q Test c and Hcg, etc, then hitting the wall on my follow up with the urologist, it appears that things are looking up. After having the local urologist...
