[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 180516, member: 18023"] On a similar note, at age 43 my PSA was 2.1, and stayed in the range of 2.1-2.7 for the next 22 years, even with 5 years of TRT at age 57. My T has been both low and high during that time, likely E2 was fairly low and well as DHT likely being on the low side, even during most of the TRT. During the first 5 years of TRT (nebido) I kept measuring PSA but never measured Estradiol nor DHT. But going on recent years, likely my E2 was fairly low as it is seldom high unless my total T gets above 1500. Even at total T of 2000 my E2 was 56, while high, isn't as high as one might expect for the total t. Outside of that one measurement of E2 at 56, the highest my E2 has been is 27 with all levels of total T. At age 66 my PSA did up range to 3.2-4.8, no idea why, very unlikely cancer as I had several tests that indicate little likely hood of cancer. The move up was very likely triggered by resuming TRT at age 65, same TRT protocol as before (Nebido) though I did add HCG / DHEA, no idea if that was the reason for the jump up as stopping both of those (HCG/DHEA) didn't cause any lowering of the range. I could theorize that HCG enabled an enlargement of the prostate, once larger it didn't shrink just because I stopped HCG, but really, the evidence is not strong enough to say for sure why PSA rose, it's as though it increased to what is more typical for my age of 67. I restated DHEA with no change in the PSA range that I mentioned. [/QUOTE]
