2 years back I was prescribed a testosterone gel in UK for my low t levels of 6.2 at the age of 38 I am now 40 and kinda regretting the decision. It appears they think it's secondary hypogonadism but had no final say and now exloping the possibility of children..... I had sperm test done which...

Under NHS trt which as you can imagine isn't the best ! So looking to find out private trt doctors and estrogen sensitive tests in the UK preferably south west

I have read they are pretty harsh ! So I don't think I would get tempted unless I had full on c cups hanging there !!

I've also suffered stomach issues for the past month getting worse ! Maybe unrelated but hell I don't feel well and I feel like I am just moaning about trt ! I have had some great benefits from it too !

Is what I am saying is I don't know . Endo won't check estrogen or anything else unless he feels he needs to ! Before trt my estrogen was up the upper end with low T but that was not a sensitive test ! I have suffered slight gyno before and still have a small lump under 1 nipple. I don't want to...

No as I am in the UK and as far as I know they don't do it here !

A few people have suggested low estrogen ! I have not touched any AIs so not sure why it would have gone low on trt ? Also don't understand why I can't put weight on ! Muscle or fat ! Stronger in the gym but list a few lbs !

Thanks for the reply. How do I go about this without the endo doing it ??

It's just on a letter with no reference ! I could probably get a print out ! It's in the UK if that helps ?

Blood test results back in ! Taken 2 hours after 4 pumps of tostran TESTOSTERONE 19.5 FREE ANDROGENS 69.6 HAEMOGLOBIN 154 PSA 84 The testosterone looks ok to me but still not feeling all the benefits! I felt more confident in myself with natty levels of 10 ! I asked for estrogen to be...

I don't think I have ever had thyroid checked !! So the sex hormones basically ?

Really does help my sleep !! But have read it can lower estrogen ! Not sure how good the source was but could be good or bad for some !

Just incase anyone wants to know ! My symptoms have eased loads over the last week or so ! The anxiety had got real bad but now nearly all gone !! I started Zma again as it helps me sleep ! Maybe coincidence ! But it's eased since then ! So was it low E2 ? Anxious, sensitive nipples ( not too...

Like you said my T is low ! If it was higher I am sure it would counteract any negative feelings I am getting . Another thing I have noticed if real shortness of breath ! Will get my blood pressure checked and just hold tight I guess for blood work although I feel the endo is not that clued up...

Unfortunately for me that's not really an option :-/
