    Low T / high normal TSH, low fT3&4 / low normal AM cortisol...what's causing what?

    Appreciate your input Systemlord. How do you suggest I go about treating my specific thyroid condition?

    Low T / high normal TSH, low fT3&4 / low normal AM cortisol...what's causing what?

    So I've retested some tests at a different lab and there are many things that are out of range. I don't know where to start, or how to go about with treatment, or what is causing what, or if there is a direct connection between any of them and one of them is throwing the others off. I don't...

    High TSH, normal fT3 & fT4 - antibodies & rT3 OK.

    No I'm not. Still in the diagnosis stage. I can't find the numbers. Searched everywhere. No. But I have neither. My results are showing normal fT3. Or are you saying that my fT3 could actually be below normal because I might have t3 antibodies that are making it seem like my t3 is normal...

    High TSH, normal fT3 & fT4 - antibodies & rT3 OK.

    No problems at all if you're paying out of pocket. That's why I'm here. Question is "how"? No measurement. Just eat a lot of table salt.

    High TSH, normal fT3 & fT4 - antibodies & rT3 OK.

    Like I mentioned in the title, rt3 and antibodies check out. Don't have the results on me right now, but that's not the reason.

    High TSH, normal fT3 & fT4 - antibodies & rT3 OK.

    And really low free testosterone. TSH 4.54 (0.27 - 4.20) uIU/mL fT3, free 3.6 (2.0 - 4.4) pg/mL ft4, free 1.24 (0.93 - 1.70) ng/dL Iodine intake is (and always has been) optimal. Any advice where to go from here? I used to think it was do to low T. But now I'm hearing that my low T is...

    How do I get my body to produce on its own?

    How much of a difference in terms of before and after t levels did that make? But the weight gain and belly fat is the direct side effect of the low T. It's the low T that's causing it. It's an uphill battle trying to fix that with low T. Iodine...yes Selenuim...no

    How do I get my body to produce on its own?

    But I'm hearing my thyroid is where it's at because of the low T. You are saying my low T is because of my thyroid. How do I address the thyroid issue? I already consume more iodine than the average person. It's not because of antibodies or rt3. What next?
  9. F

    How do I get my body to produce on its own?

    So are my numbers enough to cause this much of t level decline?
  10. F

    How do I get my body to produce on its own?

    Would the ^ thyroid be side effect of low testosterone??
  11. F

    How do I get my body to produce on its own?

    TSH 4.54 (0.27 - 4.20) uIU/mL fT3, free 3.6 (2.0 - 4.4) pg/mL ft4, free 1.24 (0.93 - 1.70) ng/dL No doc, but I did do reverse and antibodies. Can't find the results but no problems there.
  12. F

    How do I get my body to produce on its own?

    I don't drink at all. What about clomid or nolvadex or hCG therapies to see if I can jump start anything? I'm sure dieting, losing weight and exercising would help to increase my t, but it's not going to cure my hypogonadism. So whatever I might gain from those methods would be petty. My TSH...

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.
