Gents-
My doc has tested my Total Estrogen levels twice and each time they came back at 150 on a scale of 40-115.
He said this is nothing to worry about, but I disagree! I know he should check E2, but he doesn't.

Does this test really mean anything? How can I convince him to look at E2?
I like the doc as he is okay with self injects, pellets, creams, whatever...he is very young and I just don't think he has a comprehensive grasp on whats needed. He's covered 100 percent with co-pay and that includes the 12 pellets put in Monday so that's nice.

How'd you know! Maybe a man-gina?Originally Posted by The Matrix
Guess I'll wait a month and then get labs through private labs. Does that work even with states that require lab results go directly to ordering doc?
Thanks, Matrix. Talked to doc today. He said he does at times check estrodiol, he just did not think I had any symptoms of elevated E2. However, for peace of mind he is going to check it in a month when we look at how the pellets ate working....Originally Posted by The Matrix
