  1. Therapy for the gut

    I had a doctor that diagnosed me with candida problems at one point. He liked to hit it hard with antifungals. One of the more interesting ones was econazole. This one has poor bioavailability and so it stays in the digestive tract which is really what you want. This way it is not rough on...

    Do you mean Dr. Romeo Mariano in Monterrey?
  3. Therapy for the gut

    I would like to know what treatment options are available to help with gut issues. If you have had food intolerances or irritable bowel symptoms or similar what has worked for you. I'm really interested in the range of options rather than looking for something specific for me. I'm especially...
  4. Arimidex, Aromasin or Letrozole?

    Are you absolutely sure the panic is from high E2?? I ask because panic has often been associated with low E2. So far you have tried arimidex, aromasin and progesterone to counter E2. All of which eventually stopped helping.
  5. Arimidex, Aromasin or Letrozole?

    I'm agnostic about your case but I do not believe that anyone has the technology to definitely diagnose gut issues. Most of the time doctors don't even use what little diagnostic capability they do have. For example, did you have your gut permeability tested? In my case, I have long...
  6. Arimidex, Aromasin or Letrozole?

    I have had problems with some generics too. The aromasin I took was Xtane which is the generic version. Now I am wondering if a brand name version would be different.
  7. Arimidex, Aromasin or Letrozole?

    Loss of effectiveness seems to be a common problem with meds (especially for hormones). You may have noticed my post about my experience with arimidex and aromasin. Arimidex I dropped right away because of the sides. It only took a couple weeks before the benefits of aromasin wore off at a...
  8. T levels and libido

    There is no simple relationship between T levels and libido. It is possible to have high T and low libido and vice versa. Libido has many dependencies. T is one of these so it is probably safe to say that if your T is very low you will have libido issues. Other dependencies include estrogen...
  9. Free estrogen testing

    I've been working on my gut issues for more than 20 years. While I have been able to manage it and improve some things fundamentally it is far from normal. It seems that getting older is making things worse too. I suspect that my problems are related to an acquired immune deficit that is very...
  10. Free estrogen testing

    My experience with arimidex and aromasin I decided to go for a trial of AIs to see what effect they would have. While I was waiting for my aromasin to arrive I decided to give arimidex a very short try. I tried 1/4 tab before bed. I felt sides very soon - palpitations. Next day I felt...
  11. Please Help, What Is Going On With My Body/Test Results?

    What made you think of getting tested for STDs and which ones? What were you given the antibiotics for in the first place?
  12. Please Help, What Is Going On With My Body/Test Results?

    The real challenge is whether you can sustain the benefit. My experience with dysbiosis is that things tend to adapt to whatever change and you end up back where you started. The latest research on yogurt is that it doesn't really shift the flora that much and it reverts within 2 weeks of...
  13. TRT, libido, erections and other hormones etc...

    This is a great question and I'd love to see more responses to it. It is really hard to tell from these forums what the long term results are. Hormone regulation seems like a very tricky business. There is much more going on than just serum levels of hormones.
  14. Matrix

    I had an interesting experience like this several years ago although it wasn't ED or E2 issues. I have long standing immune system issues and felt fatigued very often. My doctor gave me some econazole and for 1 week I felt really great but then it wore off. I never was able to get the drug to...
  15. Matrix

    My experience with gut issues is that they can be really hard to understand and even if you do understand them sometimes there may not be that much you can do to fix them. In most cases it seems at least to take a while. I'm interested in what you do for this so perhaps you can send me a PM...
  16. aromasin dose

    Yeh, the dosing must be different for people on TRT on account of the fluctuations in T.
  17. aromasin dose

    E2 will fluctuate a lot with e4d dosing. Is this preferred for some reason over more frequent dosing or is it just easier to cut the pills in half versus quarters or eighths? I thought it desirable to keep E2 levels as steady as possible.
  18. Lurker here... With test results and need opinion.

    If you need something short term try the Cialis. This will not hurt you and can get you back in the game. If the Cialis doesn't work then it is also somewhat diagnostic. You need to get that E2 test because that could be your next short term target. I hope your new doctor will order a more...
  19. Estradiol testing from lab corp

    We have this test number but it does not show it as a "sensitive" test. What is your reference range? Here it is <52 pg/mL for that test putting you still in the normal range. By the way, what do you do to control your E2 levels at times like these?
