  1. Tcyp and high Estrogens

    Thanks again, I do not know the significance of a Hytrin. As far as the estrogens are concerned, I've tested high in estrogens: Estrogen/Tot.Serum………………….. 187 130 or less pg/ml Any thoughts?
  2. Tcyp and high Estrogens

    Absolutely; he should look at the Roid Calculator ( Invalid Link Removed ) At least he's not the endo from Kaiser (hmo in CA) who told me to take anti-depressives and that all of us were suffering from the placebo effect! The one thing that bothers me is my slump in energy and mood about day...
  3. Tcyp and high Estrogens

    Thanks JanSz; you are a very helpful person. Is it true that DHT can exacerbate BPH symptoms? I have a slight enlargement but very low PSA ( .52 ). I use Terazosin HCL, 5mg per day and that helps. My doctor is quite new to some of this. He prefers Testim(which worked well for me)...
  4. Tcyp and high Estrogens

    Thanks Wondering, I believe you are correct about the DHT from Androgel. The injections are easier and cheaper for me. How does one gain DHT? As for more frequent injections, my endo told me to stick to once a week until further notice. He's methodical and wants to change only one variable...
  5. Tcyp and high Estrogens

    Hello, I’m somewhat new with TRT. Several months ago I was borderline hypogonadism (total T 332) with all the symptoms so my doctor agreed to Androgel, two packs a day (10mg). This worked well, bringing my total T to around 840, but each day was an up and down ride. For a couple of months...
  6. Androl gel problems?

    That's a funny response, mine exactly. Testim lasts a couple more hours and the let down is less dramatic, in my experience.
  7. Androl gel problems?

    I've used both and Androgel absorbs quickly but not as well. Testim takes about 4 hours to raise your levels and your blood levels stay higher longer.
  8. Help, my endo says I'm crazy

    Wondering, I'm a little confused how my estrogens are being driven too low, and conversely, are rising. What would one do to slow the SHBG decline?
  9. Help, my endo says I'm crazy

    Thank you. I'll read it all and write it down. It may take a week or two to have my Kaiser Primary Care Doctor order the tests. He'll do it I believe.. If not, on to plan B.
  10. Help, my endo says I'm crazy

    Dr Tong told me that if someone has total Test at 100, raising his level to 3-400 would be great. I think "normal" sometimes means "alive" with some doctors.
  11. Help, my endo says I'm crazy

    Hey, My Blood Pressure today was 123/78 that day, a little lower than normal, and I was red-faced during the consultation.
  12. Help, my endo says I'm crazy

    Thanks Wondering and Plymouth City, I'll get my estrogen tested this week...
  13. Help, my endo says I'm crazy

    Thank you for responding. I'll use Kaiser for cheap blood tests I suppose. I'm waiting to get my T levels tested with my paid endo to make sure it's in a healthy range. Has anyone ever had a blushing (hot flash) response? It's odd that the Kaiser doc was not concerned enough about my health...
  14. Help, my endo says I'm crazy

    Hello All, I'm a new arrival to TRT. I'm 54 and tested 332 for Total T, have had all the symptoms for years, so my paid doctor gave me script for Androgel 10mg a day. I filled it using my primary care doc at Kaiser (hmo). I went to a private endo who let me try Testim, which worked even...
