I feel okay, thinking the dizziness might of been from dieting and lack of sleep (new baby). Libido is good (not like I was when I was 18, but good), no ED issues, strength has actually increased after being off Clomid this long. I hit my PR on deadlift with (505lbs x 4 reps), so felt good about...

Here's the iron, ferritin, and E2 tests. The doctor told me he had an endocrinologist look at my thyroid tests, and didn't see the need to test further.

Nice! I'm in software, so no medical background. My wife is biomedical science, so she's been helping some, too. I'll see if I can get tests ordered this week. I'll post results here! Thanks again!

Thanks for all the helpful information. May I ask what your occupation/background is? You're very knowledgable, and appreciate all the help, really do! I forwarded all your suggestions to my doctor, and will see if I can get tests run this week at CPL.

so the main reason for doing all of this is due to how I feel lately... I've been very "foggy" in the head, sort of the feeling someone would get coming off a caffeine high. I experience sweaty faint spells from time to time, if I don't have the right balance of food. I have noticed that if I...

I'll get the Reverse T3 test done this week. Anything else I should test for?

I wanted to try Tongkat Ali LJ100, but heard a lot of fakes are circulating. I could research Amazon and Google all day, but figured it'd be easier to just ask. I'm in the US, so looking for a distributor stateside.

so what is the root cause of high/elevated SHBG? Anything to worry about or research further as it pertains to my overall health? Seems like if I could lower SHBG it would improve Free T since it would no longer be bound up.

Do any supplements actually lower SHBG? I was reading Boron, DIM, I3C, and all this stuff. I'm skeptical of supplement claims. I'd be happy if I could get it down in the 50s, but that's a significant reduction from my current level. I guess I'm curious if I should take supplements to help...

Thanks for all that, Mark. I did have Thyroid AB done October 10, 2017 of last year, and my thyroid levels were the same, so not sure...

Thanks Mark! I do not, live in Texas, and possible sleep apnea. I've never had a sleep study, but my wife says I snore a lot at night. I'll ask my doctor to order those tests. He's direct primary care, so shouldn't be an issue. Curious, is there a way to get SHBG back into normal range?

Hey guys, I had Nelson look over my blood work a few months ago. I was retested last Friday, all my levels. My doctor told me nothing to be concerned about, but wanted to discuss during my physical next week. I noticed a few things were different, and elevated slightly, so I was concerned. Do...

Trying to find someone who has experience/knowledge with TRT and men's hormones. Tired of paying money for meet and greet with doctors only to be disappointed. Thanks!

Oh nice! Thanks! Good to see what y'all are taking, too. I guess it's not abnormal to take that many. :)

Anything wrong with taking the following longterm? Also, I'm on Clomid, which is reasoning/thinking behind some of the things on this list. I didn't know if this looked excessive, but I do feel some of these things do help. I can personally say Cissus has reduced joint pain for me...
