[QUOTE="johndoesmith, post: 60294, member: 13404"] Haha I should have thought of that. Really, I just hate the feel of my mouth when I wake up, and the thought of water before brushing my teeth is disgusting to me. So wait, you feel better when cutting calories? That's odd. There absolutely is a connection between calories and hormones. Testosterone will decrease, SHBG will generally increase, and I'm sure there are impacts on other hormones such as thyroid and adrenal hormones in caloric restriction. That won't have any long term effect. Nicotine is an aromatase inhibitor. You'll have to call them and ask if they will cover lab orders from an "out of state out of network" doctor. It's important to specify not that they cover this doctor but orders they make for labs. Of course you know this is not a diagnosis and except for Dr Saya we are not physicians, and even if anyone is, there's no doctor that would diagnose over the internet. This is entirely my opinion and experience. Take it as you will. I do think it will turn things around for you. Why one has low E2 will depend on many things. Who's the doctor that ordered these tests? They seem to understand hormones well, but left out tests that even a doctor who doesn't understand hormones well will usually order like LH, FSH, and SHBG. If LH and FSH were ran, it'd tell you if you're secondary or primary. While you're not testosterone deficient you are certainly estradiol deficient which has nearly all of the same symptoms but IMO with more long term risks. Contrary to popular belief, low E2 will cause increased body fat, whereas most think only high E2 will do so. It's possible low E2 is holding you back directly, but I think it may be more indirect, from depression, fatigue, and joint pain. Google is where you should start. Wikipedia. Pubmed is great also, but rather advanced, so if you don't mind jargon and such it'll be very informative. [/QUOTE]
