[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 77264, member: 2624"] Welcome to Excelmale. Some quick observations. Your doctor ordered the incorrect estradiol test in the labs reported here. Men should only be tested with the sensitive (also called ultrasensitive) assay. The test you had conducted is unreliable. This is particularly important over the course of Clomid therapy. Estradiol, a necessary hormone, can climb quickly during Clomid protocols. This contributes to some of the unwanted side effects that are encountered. Always test e2 with the sensitive lab test. While your TSH is in a good spot, that's the only thyroid test that was run. Given what you presented with, it is important to evaluate full thyroid function (t3, t4, rt3, antibodies). DHT and DHEA weren't captured? Your hematocrit is at the top of the range. Should you start TRT it will likely rise higher. I'd donate blood now and try to get ahead of this challenge. How is your sleep? Any chance you have apnea? Head or testicular injury? [/QUOTE]
