I’m male 26, 158, 6’2’’ currently not working or studying due to trying to solve this issue. I currently have a microadenoma of 3.2 centimeters. I already went to the top endocrinologist (2) here where i live and I also went to United states to meet a “highly” recognized endo. 2 of the endos where I currently live did not treat me due to my age, the third one was the one who wanted an mri for the pituitary gland (before even doing a full lab of my hormones, yes we didn’t know my prolactin level). when we found out I had a tumor he did not know what to do, so he called an hospital around here who haves students of endocrinologist and supposedly good endos too. so i had to wait 2 months to have an appointment because the last endo wanted to treat me with viagra since he did not know what to do. when the appointment arrived she went thro all my labs and determined to do more labs since my acth was a bit high. she wanted to check saliva and orine cortisol so she can clear cushing disease out. i asked whats her treatment with my current lab test and she said testosterone injection either once every two weeks or once a week. heres the catch, she doesnt measure e2 and doesnt care about shbg. so i went to the doctor in Florida (yes i had to pay a lot for this) and basically he just said" well buddy i can offer clomid, gel, hcg or test injection" i said in my mind wtf! he doesnt measure e2 and doesnt care about shbg! wtf im here lost, hopeless. so i said give me hcg and he prescribed me with 1000 iu 3 days a week for 6 weeks and retest. i said wow, but i started the protocol and 3 injections in and i feel lost, anxiety, depression, i dont know what to do. this is making me extremely bloated (from the three injections) im losing weight fast and its giving me insomnia.</span></p><p><span style="color: #333333">anyways, i need advice, opinion on what to do.
