[QUOTE="MarkM, post: 119066"] Welcome to the forum and thanks for posting. You have taken the wrong Estradiol test. The Roche ECLIA test is the test designed for women and is not accurate for men. You need the Estradiol Sensitive LCMS/MS assay. That being said, your result of 12.3 for the non-sensitive Estradiol test is dangerously low and I am in fear that you are about to crash your Estradiol which you do not want to do. It is very hard for most men to recover from a crashed E2 in a short period of time. Normally the results on the Estradiol Sensitive test are considerably lower than the non-sensitive test. When your Estradiol was in the 37 to 39 range did you have symptoms of high E2 or did you go on anastrozole because you thought the number was high? I have an Estradiol Sensitive of 35.3 and I do not take an AI and I have no symptoms. However, my non-sensitive Estradiol was 91.0. Good thing I was taking an AI for my non-sensitive Estradiol. I would highly recommend getting the Estradiol Sensitive test. Your TSH looks high and I would recommend a complete Thyroid Panel test performed. An under performing thyroid can give you low T symptoms. You should test for the following: TSH, Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, and both thyroid antibodies. Your Vitamin D3 is very low and I would suggest supplementing it. [/QUOTE]
