[QUOTE="Vince Carter, post: 103487, member: 2657"] I think you know hairloss is a lot more genetic than demonizing DHT which is the norm, apparently you got the trait and your siblings didnt or haven't started to loos their hair yet. IIRC DHT opposes or counters Estrogen to a limited extent. Having high DHT isn't of concern as long as your monitoring your PSA and since you are high and on the upper limit good advice would be to include PSA in your semiannual labs. When I have DHT thru Quest it's a 16-79 lab range so you clearly got something different this time around. Here's a tip for you that I have to use with Quest and my lab scripts, is when they enter everything they print a sheet and have you verify your personal info at the top. Do that but look at the bottom where your labs tests are listed, based on their entries. If anything is wrong there hand it back to them unsigned. But know to they will only enter exactly what is written on the script without interpreting it. For instance the tech couldn't find Estrogen, Free, as it was written. So I say to her it's probably "Estradiol, Free" thats what you need to select. She refused... Are those lab scripts from Defy by chance? [/QUOTE]
