Hi all,

As a little background .... I've been struggling quite heavily over the past 3/4 years with elements of low mood/depression, fatigue, lack of energy, low libido etc. To be honest, just not feeling myself. Have always put it down to mental issues and just aspects of life but thought i may as well get checked physically to rule anything out. Results attached from yesterday.

Admittedly, i'm still fairly new to doing my own research into the detail so thought i would also reach out for some opinions and potentially advice on how i could improve across a few areas from peoples experiences.

As an FYI my Albumin was also 46 (Got from a finger prick)

Any advice would be welcome :)

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
