[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 104277, member: 15832"] You have a lot of important labs missing, SHBG would tell us how well you hold onto your testosterone and help in designing a protocol tailored to you, no estrogen testing either. Estrogen levels will largely determine how you feel while on TRT. Most doctors are oblivious when it comes to male hormones and monitoring estrogen, Your thyroid is a complete mess and is missing a lot of important tests, most doctors will struggle with proper thyroid treatment and testing, I don't see any tests for antibodies. If your immune system is attacking the thyroid antibodies will be high, no Reverse T3 tested either an if high can block fT3 slowing down every cell in your body making you feel weak and terrible even if fT3 levels are good. You most certainly have a thyroid issue and as long as you do TRT won't really do anything for your as every cell in your body is slowed down, TRT attempts to rate metabolic rates and it cannot because the thyroid is holding everything up. TSH increases when your pituitary detects a problem, this is why TSH is near the top of the ranges, it's screaming at the thyroid to produce thyroid hormones. If you believe you can learn this and teach you current doctor how to do TRT, forget it. You need a knowledgeable hormone doctor to be able to look at you labs and determine the next steps. [/QUOTE]
