Endometriosis and perimenopause
I've heard of a place in London that offers bespoke hormonal treatments and sometimes use
testosterone
. Has anyone been through this and what worked for you? I am so scared of having to experiment with myself again. I'm still not mentally over the last time. Help!

Early Hypo/Hashi's Complicated By Adrenal/Low Cortisol
I wonder about the
testosterone
causing some body revving ........even though the
testosterone
blood work indicates I am about 60% along the normal range, so not over medicated.

Post-RP tTestosterone to DHT ratio
"After
testosterone
from the plasma has entered the prostatic cell through diffusion it is metabolized to other steroids by a series of enzymes. Over 95% of
testosterone
is converted to the most important prostatic androgen dihydrotestosterone."

Aromatase, estrogen, and how (and WHERE) they work?
of the problems that men experience on ADT are not actually directly from low-T, but they are from low-E (and that is a direct result of low-T, since estrogen in men is derived from
testosterone
). When we make T the target of our therapy, we also kill E, to our possible detriment.

DHT / Avodart
(The true target of ADT is DHT - not
testosterone
[T].) Myers used blood tests to monitor DHT. My concern with DHT is that it might be made within cancer cells. Normally, DHT is made from T. However, there are alternative pathways not dependent on T.

Incredible loss of strength on limited ADT
Currently as of last month I am .048 PSA with low
testosterone
, however
testosterone
went from 1.2 to 1.9 during the 3 month tests. These are Canadian numbers I think they use something different in US tracking.

Erection troubles
I have used other ed meds, I have used
testosterone
topical on my arms, and used penis rings. I am a smoker and am aware that it makes it worse but honestly I have felt this way since before I smoked.

Underdosed to overdosed now confused
This was on
testosterone
/progesterone and high doses of Armour. I was still losing muscle despite lifting weights daily. I never even got sore from my workouts anymore it was like it was burning off too fast to build it. I suspected it was too much thyroid hormone and other hormones.

Updated bloods , but why palpitations and anxiety with these numbers ?
Testosterone
Total - 564 R250-1100
Testosterone
Free- 90.8 R35.0-155.0 - My palps have calmed a little and I think it has a lot to do with anxiety and maybe being hypo? -My functional doctor says to drop from 135mg amour to 120 mg after my last bloods a week ago to see if palps decrease.

Ebb & Flow...to eat or not to eat. Crazy diet, rising PSA, consistent weight, and what's next? (on the menu of treatments)
But this last time they showed some "upticks" or whatever they call it..and slight enlargement (as they have been mostly shrinking before this) **other than my "numbers" I have felt pretty good considering I have apps 9 or 10 for my
Testosterone
number.....and Xtandi adds and extra wollop on top of that

My post RP changes in Cholesterol and Testosterone
On
Testosterone
I don't have any pre RP data. But, at 4 months post RP 820 ng/dl and at 5 mo 935 ng/dl total-T places me at the 98-99 percentile for my age. I am reading papes that indicate a drop after RP and subsequent rise to pre RP levels. Has anyone else noticed such changes?

I think ZYTIGA has stopped working
My
Testosterone
has remained steady at 0.1 with my sex hormone binding globulin usually between 30 and 35. Calculated Free
testosterone
is 0.0. I have an appointment with my Med Onc on 19th November. I'm guessing ZYTIGA is on its last legs. Or are there some Neuroendocrine Tumors popping up?
