Actually I just checked with my son again. He said there is definite improvement in his agitation level. He no longer feels ready to explode like he did several weeks ago. Would that improvement be consistant with the his high estrogen levels coming down? It's fatigue and lack of drive persist...

When his dose increased from 7.5mg EOD back to 12.5mg EOD he happened to have one more 7.5mg capsule left. I had him take that on an "off" day so for a three day period he took 12.5, then 7.5, then 12.5 and continued on with the 12.5 EOD. Right after this three day period he felt better and...

My son has primary pituitary and primary thyroid issues. He just turned 20. He is now on growth hormone injections, clomid, anastrozole, levoxyl, vit D, vit B12 and iron. He just tested deficient in oxytocin so he will start on that soon too. He has a team of doctors that includes Dr. Saya...

Thanks. My son did have the sensitive version of the test done before starting treatment but that version was not rerun. We will need to do that. We saw his endocrinologist yesterday and he was pleased with the numbers and will rerun them again in four weeks. Hopefully by then my son will...

So my son (19 yrs) is working with Dr Saya and Defy. He's on 12.5mg clomid & 0.3 anastrozole EOD. Our local endocrinologist ordered blood work after three weeks of treatment to keep close tabs. These are the changes after three weeks: testosterone: 144 before 666 after (range 348-1197) LH...

Thanks, this is helpful.

Dr Saya- So if a person has had a growth hormone stim test and been documented as true AHGD will clomid work for their low T? Should they even bother trying clomid first before trying testosterone? Let's assume that there is no known reason (trauma, radiation, tumor) for a pituitary problem...

Thanks for these sensitive replies. He is young and has been suffering for a while. We suspected endocrine issues since he was 14 but the two endocrinologist he has seen have been terrible. His current labs clearly indicate real problems in need of treatment but I really need to find a doctor...

Just realized I typed THS not TSH. Yes, his TSH is testing high, it was 6.9 his week. We also just got the Anti TPO result yesterday, that was negative (<6). So extremely low T (144 now) and normal LH 5.4 (1.7-8.6) and normal prolactin 10.7 (4-15.2) and estrodiol 32 (8-43) would be PRMARY...

I just read the recent posts by 18 year old Mike and find myself in a similar boat searchingy for answers for my 19 yr old son who is about to take a medical leave from college. His issues have been in going for many years. For a start, he started going gray at age 8 and it's quite noticeable...
