  1. Very Low Libido - Blood tests

    Dude, that high progesterone is killing your libido! You are double the range. You need to atleast double your Test levels to combat that high progesterone.
  2. high DHEA help

    Matrix, would you be able to determine if someone had some kind of infection that could be causing stress to the adrenals? Exactly how is this done? I suspect I do have some kind of toxicity because I get a white/yellowish coating on my tongue & ear wax buildup. Who knows, could be so many...
  3. high DHEA help

    You need to post all lab work to get a better picture of what's going on. Of importance, where's your progesterone at? If you have progesterone that is elevated, it could be an indication that you are having issues down that particular hormonal pathway mostly adrenal hormone related. Typically...
  4. Secondary Hypogonadism and Clomid.

    Your doc sounds like a complete douche. How can he call that normal testosterone? Maybe if you are like 75 years old.. Time for a second opinion.
  5. Medrol Vs. Hydrocortisone

    Thanks Jansz, I'm currently taking about 200mg of DHEA. For whatever reason, my body really needs it and it makes me feel much better. I did a Rhein's and my DHEA was double the top of the range (this was before taking dhea or anything else). I have no idea why my body needs such a high...
  6. Is this the lowest TT ever seen here?

    Damn, that's crazy! What are the range of symptoms you are experiencing? I would think that if your Test was that low, that it would also be crashing your adrenals & thyroid after awhile. Have you had complete blood work done?
  7. E2 wont go down? This problem?

    Letro should have brought you way down after a few days. I get same symptoms as you sometimes because I take a high dosage of DHEA which converts to other hormones such as Test & E2. Try Arimidex .5mg eod for first week & adjust dosage from there if you need to.
  8. Medrol Vs. Hydrocortisone

    No, have not done that yet. That's a good idea, just don't have the cash right now. I'm confident though that it's my adrenals because I feel good on HC, it just doesn't last long enough. I'm trying 5mg about every 2 hours...about 45 minutes in it starts to wear off quickly. I'm staying like at...
  9. Medrol Vs. Hydrocortisone

    Compared to HC? I'm just talking about replacement dose, nothing too crazy. I have heard that 20% of people metabolize HC too fast & need to switch over to Medrol. I'm currently taking about 20 -25 mg of HC a day, but having major ups & downs because it wears off so quickly.
  10. Medrol Vs. Hydrocortisone

    Wow, thanks for the insights...that really helps me out. I have adrenal/thyroid issues confirmed through one of the best specialist around (Dr. Marianco). Do you think I like sitting around feeling like crap all day? No, I don't. I'm trying to be proactive trying to get back to the road to...
  11. Is anybody's body temperature here less than 98.6 and DONT have thyroid problems?

    Sounds like classic adrenal problems. I have the same issue with fluctuating temps throughout the day. I attribute this to unstable cortisol production. I feel good in the morning, but starts going down hill after noon & start to feel better again later at night. I think my pituitary may be the...
  12. Medrol Vs. Hydrocortisone

    I'm having major problems metabolizing HC (Cortef) way too fast. I can take 10 mg of HC and feel really good for about 45 min. & then it wears off quickly. It's causing some major ups & downs and I need to figure out if I need to switch to a longer acting corticosteroid like Medrol. I have...
  13. Starting hCG monotherapy

    I have the same problem with high progesterone which is a cause for allot of my problems. Dhea was double top of range. LH & FSH were at the bottom, but yet my Test levels were almost mid range which seems impossible having such low LH & FSH numbers. I'm coming to a theory that since LH & FSH...
  14. Finasteride - Long term side effects

    Did you ever feel an increase in libido when taking it? I have heard that about 10% find an increase in libido, (because it raises Test,) while about 2% experience loss. I'm wondering because I have been applying a topical fin. for almost 2 weeks. The first week I actually felt a jump in libido.
