Could this be it?

For those that have a mysteriously low libido yet great labs and high testosterone....are there any studies/theories that maybe it’s the peaks and valleys that trigger libido? In other words, maybe there is such a thing as being too stable.?

just wondering
 
It's not a new hypothesis, and it seems as though many men see their best results during transitions. However, it doesn't seem to be as simple as adding daily peaks and valleys to the sex hormones. If that were the case then everyone would be on daily testosterone propionate doing great. I've been experimenting with propionate for a year, and I did have great results during the transition from testosterone enanthate. But I've been unable to repeat the really good period, and other effects during the last year, good or bad, are too subtle to specifically attribute to the propionate.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
