[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 242417, member: 15832"] This happens when estrogen is low. My sisters after menopause have hot flashes throughout the day, everyday and unable to retain water. I’m sorry, fixing the low-T naturally isn’t possible, because you have testicular failure. Your pituitary gland is pumping out the LH stimulating hormone in an attempt to stimulate your testicles to produce testosterone and estrogen, but your testicles aren’t responding, so the LH is high and will continue to rise. Infertility is likely. TRT can improve liver function.
