I am a 23 year old male who is suffering from low libido, ED, and all the typical symptoms of low testosterone/high estrogen levels.
I took prohormones, Promagnon 25 (4-chloro-17a-methyl-andro-4-ene-3, 17b-diol), for a peroid of 5 months in 2007.
Post cycle therapy wasnt adequate and I have spent the last 3 years experiencing a hormonal nose dive.
I went to a urologist/ endocrinologist and they finally said I have secondary Hypogonadism. My last test results (June 2010) are as follows. I am currently waiting on more blood work results.
Total T 507 ng/dl ref range(300-1000)
Free T 10.6 pg/ml ref range (10-30)
Estradiol 47 pg/ml ref range (14-55)
HCG <2 iu/l
LH 3.4 iu/l ref range (1.2-8.6)
FSH 3.1 iu/l
These numbers are telling me that my HPTA is kinda limping along and the high estradiol level is keeping my total and free testosterone in the dirt. I am a little over weight and need to lose some body fat which should make my estrogen level go down some.
I was wondering if there is any chance of restoring my HPTA to normal and not having to be treated for low T the rest of my life?
My knowledge of the HPTA tells me that if i lower estrogen perhaps using anastrozole, total and free test should go up. Can I take anastrozole long term to improve my T/E ratio and resolve my symptoms which will increase the quality of my life.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
