I made a post a few months ago re: TRT. I received some odd test results. Background - almost 3 years on TRT. Felt good for almost all of it. 200 mg/ml - 1 ML vial. Prescription was 0.5 ML each week. In November 2024, I started a new 10 week script. I was not feeling the best and something was off. In December 2024, my blood tests came back Free Testosterone 39.2 (scale 46-224) and Estradiol was 32 (scale <=39). Odd for my Testosterone to go LOWER when taking weekly shots and my Estradiol to increase from 15.4 (in October 2024). I reached out to the manufacturer to complain last week - Cipla. I knew something was off - especially with my mental health and weight loss/muscle loss/lack of energy. I lost almost 15lbs from November to January without trying.

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.
