[QUOTE="peet64, post: 138073, member: 1055"] I am a 55 year old guy. I have had symptoms of hypogonadism since 2016. I would always feel tired, weak erections and hardly any nocturnal erections. I discussed this with my primary physician and he referred me to a urologist. I was able to see the urologist at the beginning of 2017. He did a complete blood panel including testosterone and thyroid. My testosterone results were (total testosterone 349.9, bio avail testosterone 175.8, SHBG. 31, free testosterone 70.27, LH 7.7, FSH 3.1, prolactin 20.3, Estradiol 24.62) I was told it was within the normal range. I was 53 at that time. Anyway the urologist decided to put me on clomid 25mg and cialis 5mg daily. Within 2 months I started to feel better. Had another blood test and this time my results were: ( total testosterone 783.8, LH 9.3, Estradiol 66.86, SHBG 46, prolactin 7.8, FSH 8.5 ). The tired feeling was gone, nocturnal and spontaneous erections had returned. In July 2018 my results were ( total testosterone 776.3, bio avail.testosterone 303,free testosterone calculated 11.64, Estradiol64.3, SHBG 57.55,LH 9.2, FSH 8.6, prolactin 11.3). I questioned about my high estradiol levels and asked if I should be given estrogen blockers. I was told not to worry as long as I don’t have gynomastia or nipple tenderness, I don’t need a blocker. Then in September last year I noticed a decline. Even though I still get lots of nocturnal erections I now observe that spontaneous erections are gone. My erections are not that firm and I can’t maintain erections for long. In addition I sometimes feel depressed and I find I have become more emotional than I use to be. My plight is, should I go back to my urologist or should I try a testosterone replacement clinic? [/QUOTE]
