[QUOTE="Butchmo, post: 129216, member: 13017"] My suggestion is to get a good differential diagnosis for your condition from a competent doctor (rather than simply trying to diagnose yourself and treat yourself - see my previous post regarding possibility that your urinary symptoms could be due to something unrelated to homone issues - such as prostatitis). Having said that, your TRT concerns are certainly valid, and since you have a test result showing elevated estradiol, one approach to dealing with your current doctor is to ask them why they think this abnormal result should not be addressed. Your doctor may want to do a follow up test to confirm you actually have an abnormal result, which is not unreasonable since testing for blood levels of some hormones is not as accurate as some might imagine (do a search for "accuracy of estradio testing"). If you don't feel your doctor's answer is satisfactory, ask for a referral to an endocrinologist experienced in hormone replacement therapy. [/QUOTE]
