[QUOTE="UnsureNewbie, post: 67577, member: 15461"] Ok here is the additional information. LH and FSH got tested once. LH was 2.7 (range 0.5 - 9) and FSH was 4.2 (range of 1 -19 ). Prolactin got tested numerous times. The first 4 times prolactin was elevated. It was 24 / 23 / 25 on a reference range of 2 -15 . But keep in mind that prolactin should be tested 2-3 hours after waking up. On the lab tests where it was elevated it got tested 1-2 hours after I woke up. The mid-day and evening lab revealed prolactin levels of 9 and 6 ( reference range 2-15) so I think the elevated prolactin was rather due to not being awake long enough. I also started a 3 week experiment with cabergoline which did nothing for me (actually it diminished whatever nocturnal erections I had left). My thyroid hormones have been likely checked out up to 10 times over the past 15 years and never was any of the 3 (TSH,T4,T3) out of range. I do have a node on my thyroid but it is benign and not producing hormones according to the doctor. There hasn't been any thyroid hormones out of the reference range. I think my main concern right now is my solid total testosterone levels. I am a little vary of going on TRT , knowing that my morning testosterone levels are around 600. However , from what I have gathered the free testosterone levels are more important right?It is odd that my free testosterone would be so low given my total testosterone. [/QUOTE]
