[QUOTE="DaviSh, post: 161693, member: 39744"] Hello, I‘m new here. I’ve read off and on for years, and searched recently through the forum and haven’t found a thread that fits my situation. First, a brief background: I’ve been on TRT (injections) since summer 2015, with a new “Functional Medicine” DR since mid 2017. She was willing to titrate dosage to maximize well-being, rather than simply max out total testosterone at 500-600 as my PCP and urologist did. Up until May, my protocol was .20ml daily test cyp (200mg/ml). Numbers in May with a blood draw 5 hours after injection: total test - 862 ng/dL (300-890) shbg - 33.3 (16.5-55.9) calc free test - 200.1 pg/ml (47.0-244.0) DR never checks estradiol and doesn’t believe it’s necessary. *I have never taken any AI. At that time I felt only “OK”, some mild ED, slight libido loss, and occasional emotional/ “weepy” episodes where I struggled to maintain composure in situations in which it should not have been a problem. DR increased dosage to .25ml test cyp daily. I haven’t felt much better since then, and actually over the last month or so have felt horrible: depression, no morning wood, trouble sleeping all night, and more persistent ED and loss of penile sensitivity. So on my own this week, I had DiscountedLabs run T and e2 (sensitive). See my attached numbers. The excessively high total and free T is not surprising, but the E2 number is shocking! Anybody have experience with really high T along with excessively low E2?? I’m grateful for all good advice. thanks, ds [/QUOTE]
