Hey everyone, Mike here...

So me summed up -

40 year old guy who's had issues with test every since about 30. Never really got the treatment I needed for this as I had a doctor put me on androgel then take me off then put me back on etc... Not sure what caused my issues to begin with.. I was hospitalized with pretty bad case of pneumonia years back, had a vasectomy if that matters, was diagnosed with hashimoto's and hypothyroidism as well..

Currently in the hunt for a good TRT program as my current doc is going to take me off of my 100mg test cyp weekly... Will post details about everything in a different area as this is my introduction and don't want it to be a book...

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.
