Are my results alright? Help me to interpret me blood test results.

Marmaromb · Dec 21, 2017

Hi, i am on a 200mg test/ week. Did blood work to see how are my levels. Specially Estradiol that was a concern of mine.
I am from Brazil but i believe that the metric measurements are the same here and in the US?
Here are the results:

ESTRADIOL Result: 31 pg/mL

TOTAL TESTOSTERONE Result:1431,41 ng/dL

[FONT=Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]FREE TESTOSTERONE:[/FONT]
SHBG: 80,6 nmol/L
FREE TESTOSTERONE: 20,216 ng/dL

If i am reading it right, you have very high SHBG which causes free to be low in relation to you total T. Your estrogen seems quite reasonable in that context.

How do you feel?

Marmaromb · Dec 21, 2017

Yeah at that level of total testosterone my level of free testosterone should be higher?
I have been feeling fine. No complains about anything so far.
I had a beginning of gyno a while back and i treated with Tamoxifen(Novadex). It's weird, i don't know how to explain it but when i eat clean i don't get gyno, but when i eat too many carbs and sugar then i get nipple sensitivity and gyno starts to form. Why does that happens? Whats the relation between food and gyno?

Search this forum and read about high SHBG in relation to free T.

There are foods with estrogenic effects like soy and flax, If you eat a lot of processed foods high in soy, could be bumping estrogen higher, but it seems that would be minimal effect compared to injecting 200mg/week of T. Not sure.

Taking an Aromatise Inhibitor(Anostrozole) to lower my HSBG would get me at risk of lowering my Estradiol too much?
Even at a small dose like 0.25mg 2x/week?
Could i try to lower my SHBG in other way?

Marmaromb · Dec 21, 2017

I also am dividing my 200mg test/week in 3 shots.
If i do less shots my SHBG leval may get lower?

I wouldn't take an AI, if that's your estradiol level. It definitely would crash your E2.

Marmaromb · Dec 21, 2017

Yeah right now i am not taking an AI and i am very reluctant to get into one.

What may be the most potent supplements to lower my SHBG count?
I am looking into:
Magnesium
Boro
Stinging Nettle Root

My current supplements that i am already taking are: Vitamin D3 10000iu, Omega 3, Zinc 50mg, Indol 3 carbinol, Grape Seed extract.

I also heard that carbohydrates intake may have an impact on the SHBG levels. And right now i am consuming carbs once a day only.... basically, since i am on a restrict diet. That's very low. I will increase my good carbohydrates intake as well and see if that helps.

Are my results alright? Help me to interpret me blood test results.
