Hello,
I am a man at the age of 25.
I’ve never used any steroids.
I applied to the doctor with the problem of poor erection erection.
I sent tests
16.07
Estradiol - no test
FSH - 2.8 miU / ml 1,5-12,4
LH - 7.2 mIU / ml 1,7-8,6
Progesterone - no test
Prolaktyna - 452,2 mU / l 86-324
Testosterone - 22.4 nmol / L 8,64 - 29
The doctor prescribed Dostinex 0.5 mg 1/2 tablets every 7 days
and Clostilbegyt 1 tablet 50 mg once daily after 10 tablets 7 days off and another 10 tablets once a day.
In the first days it was getting better, unfortunately after 6 days I suddenly lost any erections and my penis decreased as if it was not bloody. Masturbation is almost impossible because the penis is shrunk and not susceptible to stimulation. On 10.08 I filed to the doctor, I carried out the tests and I left Clostilbegyt. In total, I ate 16 Clostilbegyt tablets. That day I also rode a bike and I was at the gym so I’m also taking into account that I could have done something.
10.08
Estradiol - 492 pmol / l 28-156
FSH - 11.7 U / l 1,5-12,4
LH - 22.2 mIU / ml 1,7-8,6
Progesterone - 0.519 nmol / l 0,7 - 4,3
Prolactin - 97.4 mU / l 98-456
Testosterone - 29.3 nmol / L 9,9-27,8
It’s been 13 days since we left Clostilbegyt and nothing gets better. What could have happened?
On the forum I came across a lot of articles that there are problems with too large doses
as in my case and the lack of protection for estradiol.
looks like you are taking to much clomid. most do 25mg every other day. But…
Your estrogen looks very high thats why erection no good. Am I reading it correctly your testosterone was 22.4 BEFORE clomid? thats really good. your erection problem could be from high prolactin. Maybe you need a MRI of your brain to check for pituitary tumor - this causes high prolactin.
You probably should not be on clomid if your testosterone was 22.4
Dostinex good to lower prolactin, high prolactin no good for sexual function.
Now I know it, unfortunately I had a bad doctor. I do not take clomid for 2 weeks and nothing improves. I was thinking of taking anastrazole to lower estrogen, but this theoretically will not do anything because my estrogen comes from high lh and so from the testicles. I do not know what moves to do next
Your estrogen was probably fine before clomid. You should return back to pre clomid by itself. Clomid had long half life. Should be clear now. Do labs to see where your numbers are now.
I would not take anastrozole.
Also your prolactin is to low now again causing sexual problem. May need to adjust dostinex dosage.
My labs from 06.09.18
Prolactin 144.02 mU / l (73.7 - 407.4)
Estradiol 17 beta 159 pmol / l (40.37-161.48)
Follicle stimulating hormone 2.26 IU / l (0.95-11.95)
Luteinizing hormone 4.98 U / l (0.57-12.07)
Progesterone 0.55 nmol / L (0.32-0.64)
Testosterone 30.79 nmol / L (4.94-32,01)
Cortisol in serum 419 nmol / l
SHBG 35,7 nmol / l (13 - 71)
My lack of erection still persists, no improvement
Hey you want to know what my doctor told me on Thursday and this is not the doctor that manages my TRT the is a endocrinologist through my insurance. He said something that has me puzzled.
He told me that he feels like I mite be barking up the wrong tree with thinking I have Low T issues. He said that if low T is my problem and causing all these issues. He said doesn’t it make sense that with taking clomid or TRT and it tasing my numbers up to 800 or 900 pg and If I still feel like crap isn’t common sense at that point its not a Low T issue it must be something else and he said he wants to look for other things that could be potentially causing all these issues.
And when he said all this it had me thinking. Could he be rite maybe it has not been a low T issue. Well I mean we know I have low T because mine was at 317pg to begin with but maybe theres something that caused it because these problems were kind of onset and came out of no where.
My Endo prescribed trt. I am going to a urologist to manage my trt. Urologist says if u go to Endos they like patients to get off trt. There’s truth to that.
But. That’s why I stress on this forum to investigate everything first especially the under 30 crowd. Could be adrenal/thyroid/ pituitary /testicular tumors. Adrenal fatigue. Thyroid disease. There’s alot more. Even if you try to find cause, not always possible, you still may end up on trt. Or you fix the cause and testosterone may go up enough esp if younger without trt.
Dopamine , serotonin affect sexual function too.
It’s complicated stuff that’s why when you have guys that see ONE set of labs and tell guys oh inject 3 times a week because of… Oh please!
If you live in the United States there is no reason why you can’t find a competent doctor. You may go to a few before you find one.
hey I was wondering If you have knowledge about guys with low SHBG. My doctor had me injecting 50mg twice a week SUB Q. I was thinking about Tuesday and Thursday. But he also has me on HCG 100i.u with no A.I.
My SHBG is about 20pg with is kind of low. So I was wondering do you think I should be receiving daily shots.
Also do you know how to properly inject sub Q?
