Current status:
Went over the labs with the doctor. Since its early for me to be having these issues, he wants me to see a endocrinologist first. He had me do some more blood work cortisol, dhea, dhea-s, lh/fsh, and a second round of Total Test, Free Test. This way i have all the blood work for the endocrinologist to look over. Worried about the low Estradiol levels. From what iv’e been reading i’m prone to low bone density due to the low levels. He seamed flexible on the the Testosterone injection protocol you have suggested in the sticky. Since my E levels are low, should i start the testosterone injections without the AI? So for now waiting for another appointment. Ill have more questions once I talk to the Endo. Just wanted to get the thread started.
