  1. Does Arimidex decrease Total E, or E2, or both?

    It is very interesting especially if you are taking it. I have no idea what the true mechanism of DIM is however it is certainly true to say that Casodex is bad news for male libido and male health- I would be very upset if it worked anything like Casodex. With regard to people reporting...
  2. Does Arimidex decrease Total E, or E2, or both?

    In all honesty I don't it is just something that I have heard widely quoted by a whole host of people, from pharmocologists to hypogonadal patients. It has been stated so often that I assumed perhaps incorrectly that it was true. I almost always check the vallidity of such things, but on this...
  3. Does Arimidex decrease Total E, or E2, or both?

    Dr John I have a DIM related question and I wondered if you could help clear it up? Although DIM helps the metobolisation of estrogen, I have also heard that it also lowers DHT. Obviously I wouldn't want DHT to be lowered too much. Is this a potential issue with DIM or are my concerns...
  4. Does Arimidex decrease Total E, or E2, or both?

    I was using DIM with Indolplex from PhytoPharmica and only taking 50mg a day. Would you recommend upping that dose to the one you have spoken of, or is there a difference between the DIM you are recommending at that dose and I one I use? Cheers
  5. Does Arimidex decrease Total E, or E2, or both?

    Dr John could you take a look at my post and tell me what you think? Also if I have an SHBG of 11 or 12nmol/l right at the bottom of the range what would be a remotely reasonable E2 and testosterone level likely to be. So far no combination has worked and I always end up with low libido, ed...
  6. Does Arimidex decrease Total E, or E2, or both?

    Dr John this could be absolutely crucial to me and why I have failed on TRT for two years. My SHBG is low being 11 to 12 nmol/l in a range of 12-78. I have never felt well irrespective of the method of TRT, no matter what the level of replacement and no matter how good testosterone has...
  7. Andriol vs Androgel

    I was prescribed it in the UK under the name Restandol. The maximum dose was 6 40mg tablets not 12. After a week on it my testosterone level from a morning test was 250ng/dl as opposed to 830ng/dl on Androgel. I felt awful on it. I have seen the graphs which show its typical effect in...
  8. Raloxifene as an anti-estrogen in TRT?

    Does that mean that Raloxifene cannot be used to lower the effects of estradiol as opposed to Arimidex to lower the actual blood level of the hormone itself? I thought that Raloxifene may have been of use because a) I could more easliy get it prescribed and b) it was less of a problem in terms...
  9. Raloxifene as an anti-estrogen in TRT?

    I was diagnosed a few years ago with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, I was also diagnosed with osteopenia. A recent DEXA scan has revealed osteoporosis with a score of -2.7 of the spine...I am in my early 30s in the UK. I have found that I need to keep E2 in check. In the UK it is possible to...
