[QUOTE="Timothy54, post: 2689, member: 376"] Hi, I am a 54 year old male. My Doc put me on TRT about a year and a half ago and it has improved libido, energy, mood and weight. After several months my free T, Total T, and bio availability increased to the high side of the lab report range, but over time have decreased to, the mid range. Also, energy dropped off, labido down a little, moodiness increasing... also, I gained 10lbs when I quit coffee for insomnia, sleeping is better, but weight is on the rise. I am on 1.5 mg test cyp every two weeks but have switched to 3mg e4d. Now that I have studied these forums I see some things need to change so I have a few questions. Exactly what blood tests do I request so my doctor can be sure she has all the info she needs- especially estrogen- she has not tested for high estrogen, which, I have a hunch, may be the culprit. Is there a printout available you recommend that I could give her to read? Is there supplements that lower estrogen naturally? If so where and or what brand of zinc or zinc copper, can I get? I have been using zinc gluconate along with a daily vitamin for copper but it only gives me heartburn. Money is an issue. My insurance has a super high deductible so I need the bare minimum, but will not risk my health for the sake of being cheap. Thank you for your help. Tim [/QUOTE]
