Hi all.
I am a 40 year old male with the usual symptoms like lower libido, joint pain, blurry or noticeable lower vision, very low energy and muscle strength and generally just feeling a lot dumber than before. It started to get really bad about a year ago and now my willpower is nearing its end so I need to do something as my body is starting to feel kind of depressed.
As my symptoms seemed testosterone or estrogen related and having sort of a tenderness or pain in my right testicle, I decided to test it first and see if I can confirm or rule it out.
Most come back within range (albeit some nearing the upper limit) except for my estrogen.
Now, even though this is not a sensitive test (don't have those here), it does not seem that much lower than the bottom range but it could explain some symptoms I guess.
I also noticed my LH is almost at the upper range and is kind looking odd compared to the others who are in the middle range. Maybe it could be a indicator that one of my twins is going to the light?
My memory and work capacity sucks at the moment and the doctors in my country are not willing to help so far so I hope you guys could give me your thoughts on my bloodwork as I don't really know what to look for and don't know enough about this stuff to explain the symptoms or see any patterns.
Its in Dutch but I think most of it is the same but I will translate it if needed. I reckon I missed some tests but this one was around 300 euro to do so I tried to get the main stuff in.
