[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 57200, member: 2624"] Congratulations - you recognized you had a medical problem and proceeded to take charge of your own health. That is something that all of us here at Excelmale realize as critical. Now it's time to dig deeper. If you are going to self-test, in anticipation of a discussion with your doctor, you need to run, at a minimum, the tests you indicated in your post along with the following: Free Testosterone, CBC, a full thyroid evaluation (TSH, t3, t4, rt3, antibodies), DHT, PSA, Prolactin. I would also test your CRP levels. The standard estradiol test can see those levels and report it it as estradiol. Are you taking any other medications/supplements? Your age, weight, past history of steroid use? Head injury? I understand that you'll not find the sensitive test in the UK. If your doctor refuses to engage with you on the subject of e2 management, are you willing to go outside the NHS and consult a private physician? So, repeat the testosterone and flawed estradiol test, add to them the other tests referenced, and let us know how you proceed. We're you joined us and look forward to hearing more. [/QUOTE]
