    prolactin too high?

    This is the first time I have been able to get a doctor to check them. Looking back, my primary who started trt then gave up on me, should have done this and all other proper test before hand. I actually think by the way I felt, that was a low level. In my reading on this, I see it goes up with...

    prolactin too high?

    Thanks, some of it is over my head, but I have all of the sexual symptoms, I can barely get an orgasm at all. My body hair growth is just about stopped. I bet this is the cause. I read elsewhere it causes fatigue on account of low dopamine levels, which I do have fatigue.

    prolactin too high?

    Just got some of my labs back. Have not talked to Dr yet, but the prolactin was at 14.8 the ref range was 5 to 15.2. Sounds high to me. I was fasting at the time. Could this be why lubido is off, test and was good, e level was 1 point high. Any ideas?

    gel vs cream

    I know Dr. Crisler says gels are better. When he talks I listen. So when ordering from defy today, I switched from 10 percent cream to 10 percent gel. I looked but may have missed it, just how much more t on average is absorbed with a gel vs a cream?

    A new option for orgasm problems in men

    My sexual function has been terrible the last few months. I had defy do blood work early to find out why. We added prolactin and dht levels in as I have never had them checked. I am anxious to see if the levels are right.

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.
