(250mg Testosterone Enthanate weekly - HRT purposes)
Due to varicocele i developed hypothyroidism, adrenal fatigue (low cortisol, high DHEA), hyperprolactima and high progesterone like symptoms.
My testosterone level was low, DHT mid range, E2 low, SHBG low and progesterone very high. I am experiencing all the evil effects of all of the above including chronic penile shrinkage, impotence, weakened muscles/ligiments/tendons, low libido, dry skin, etc.
I have experienced symptoms very similar to “Deca” users who also experience the shrinkage and impotence problems.
I went on testosterone injections before at 125mg weekly, however my SHBG was low and my thyroid/adrenals unsupported. Needless to say i felt worse because my E2 was so low and then went too high due to the test. Raising my SHBG will occur due to optimizing thyroid hormone function. I am treating my adrenals also.
Would raising DHT higher using test e weekly split into two 125mg injections help solve the high progesterone problem? Is progesterone entirely controlled by LH release? Would inhibating the HPTA using test and raising DHT help lower progesterone side effects?
Any help or advice would be great. I can post my complete list of results if required.
