Follow up to previous post regarding a friends blood tests.
He is on
testosterone
injections as he had low
Testosterone
. He has been prescribed eltroxin 50mcg per day. Any thoughts? Would this be a typical starting dose? I hope you can make out the results from the photo.

Blood Test Parameters
My CRP is high,
testosterone
normal, ALP normal, what else must I check to monitor prostate cancer to give early indications that things might be going badly... Or going well...? I need long term data and trends.

Lingual tonsils???
I’m going to get a CT scan this week but I’m scared that’s going to show nothing as well We’ve already ruled out: normal tonsillitis, mono, helicobacter, strep I got a full blood test done and it said I have an infection (which I’ve known for a while) and it also said I have high levels of
testosterone

High Testosterone after one month Leuprolide shot
My dad went to his first blood control one month after his first 3-months Leuprolide shot, but his
Testosterone
is still on normal levels (4.7 ng/ML equivalent to 470 ng/dl). His PSA come from more than 50 to 22, but I guess is only because Bicalutamide. His alkaline phosphatase is on 75.

Low Calcium & Testosterone from Depo Provera shot?
I recently had a private blood test by Blue Horizon and it shows I have low Calcium and really low
Testosterone
. I've spoken to a digital GP who advised low
Testosterone
is one of the side effects of the Depo shot but it is never tested in women.

Does Casodex Cause Testosterone Spike?
I thought one purpose of the Casodex before ADT was to prevent a
testosterone
flare?

ADT and body odor or the lack there of.
When and if your
testosterone
came back to prior castrate levels did you still not this issue? I am guessing yes, but just curious if this occurred.

TMPRSS2 & COVID-19
TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusion status was also associated with an enhanced androgen-regulated gene expression, along with altered intratumoral androgen metabolism, demonstrated by reduced
testosterone
concentrations and increased DHT/
testosterone
ratios in TMPRSS2-ERG-positive tumors.

Decision Matrix Conundrum
My other question is whether using estradiol (alone or with other ADT such as degarelix) would afford the same benefit via TMPRSS2 in men with PC, as women have increased rather than decreased TMPRSS2 from
testosterone
suppression apparently. It gets curiouser and curiouser.

Positive APC Treatment
PSA went from 39 to 0.01 and
Testosterone
bottomed out at 8. Throughout the 4 years I have maintained my daily visits to LA Fitness although doing less, but always walking 2 miles. So happy that I had the will power to keep the blood circulating and muscles used.

Female Hormones
Also, my
testosterone
level is high and I'm not too sure what could cause this. Below are all of my results along with the ranges: SHBG range: 32.4 - 128nmol/L. My result: 47.1nmol/L.

Blood Test Results - please advise
I've asked for a retest for Calcium and
Testosterone
at the hospital but can't get it done yet. I am currently on 75mg Levo and 1/2 grain of ERFA Thyroid NDT. The free T3 is actually lower than when I was on 100mg of Levo so I am really confused and puzzled as I thought it would be higher.

Stony Brook Estrogen Trial for COVID-19.
I recently mentioned that
testosterone
was an immunosuppressor & that there might be a COVID survival advantage for males with
testosterone
[T] below 350 ng/dL, say. But when T approaches zero, so does estradiol [E2], because E2 is created from T via the aromatase enzyme.

Trying to Make Sense of Husbands Testosterone History and Wanting to Clarify Why a Doctor Feels He May Be Becoming CR.
But looking back at 252 being his normal, could the pelvic radiation have caused damage to his
testosterone
production? Or is his
Testosterone
still recovering from Lupron he stopped 10 months ago?
