So i was on trt from late 2005-2014ish… forgot when i just stopped… got tired of it… phlebotomies and chasing blood work… maybe my liver is actually converting cholesterol for once? Since its been high since 2005ish… 177 ldl and a total of 246 or higher… tried a statin one time within a few weeks had a clot… so no go for statins

Ffwd 2023… september… urologist suggested i take a 200 mlg pin… based on how i felt and looked and how tired and shitty i felt…

Novemberish… total test levels 543
December-jan/feb total test 643

JULY 2024 WTF- total test 762…. Wow wtf

Theee only thing ive done from december to now is changed to the vitamins in the pics also bought a sleep number bed…

What could be going on?? Perhaps a tumor?? Ive noticed a small nodule on one of my testicals…. Haha maybe tribullis works from this vitamin??

I also havent lifted since September… nor done any cardio… just sitten around eatin and drinken beers haha

Ive never had a test level that high unless i was on trt… so my mind is boggled, also have high rbc’s, hematocrit and hemaglobin… which im stumped by and so is my doc so i started taking ip6.. gotta have bw done here in august again

Lots of eating, beers, or something in the multivitamin improves your cholesterol to testosterone conversion.

The lab values on paper are good but did that improve your tiredness?

Check if your cholesterol is even higher. Also check your fasting blood glucose.

I have been extremely exhausted lately, like hard to get out of bed for work… during the day i feel fine but when i get home exhausted like crazy as well again… ill have to get some bw to see if something is going on with cholesterol, or liver or something

Ill also check my blood glucose tomorrow but since i drank 3-4 beers ronight whilst laying down a floor… and everything hurts… it maybe skewed a tad

The vitamins show to take 3… i only take 1 so i wonder if i did take all 3 what the outcome would be… usually not all at once… spread thru the day perhaps may help with the tiredness

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.
