I messed everything up.

I haven’t been able to get HCG for 3 months now due to a shortage at my insurance pharmacy.

things were GREAT about two weeks after I discontinued the HCG and I was HYPER-sexual like an 18 year old… it lasted about a month.

then I started losing libido, sensitivity, and getting ED….

where I messed up… I kept my normal armidex dose, and I must’ve slowly started crashing my e2 over the course of a couple months…

I’ve only been taking JUST testosterone the last two weeks and I still feel like I have all the low e2 sides still. I’m ordering labs on Monday and I’m due for a follow up consultation.

what labs should I order that are outside of the usual ones you get through defy medical?

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.
