[QUOTE="Vettester Chris, post: 9227, member: 696"] Andre, glad you joined. Couple things, your LH & FSH values look pretty good. Although, test serum isn't optimal, it isn't tanked either. With LH in the 5's, I'd think serum would be a bit higher, so wondering if maybe one of your testicles is underperforming? Not saying testosterone treatment isn't for you, but maybe just nudging you to have your physician dig a little deeper into the diagnosis and make sure you don't have any underlying conditions contributing to the sub-optimal production of endogenous test. Also, look at estrogen in a different light. It can actually be one of your best friends, not your "worst enemy". The key is balance. Like testosterone, you need optimal levels of estrogen in your body. On a sensitive assay model, 25 to 35 IMO is a good place to be for most men. Start tanking E2 and you will start experiencing a myriad of potential issues from bone density to immune system problems. Embrace E2 at a close friend to compliment your TRT and your program will have a greater chance for success. Just keep an eye on it, keep it in check, and IMO only us AI's in a 'small' amount WHEN needed. I'm not convinced that the thyroid is where you want it with just the TSH you provided. You really need a comprehensive thyroid panel with Free T4, Free T3, Reverse T3 and antibodies. Let us know if you have these, or look into trying to get them. [/QUOTE]
