Re: How are my Testosterone levels?

[Guest guest]

Hi and Well Come,

Your Total T is in my units 575

Your LH and FSH look dam good.

SHBG is high this tells me your Estradiol levels might be high.

SHBG binds up Free and % of Free Testosterone so do test this if it's high above

73 getting this down will lower your SHBG levels and free up your Free

Testosterone and Total can go up some 200 to 300 more points in my units.

Do you have night time and morning wood if not this might be the reasion why.

Do you eat or drink SOY if so stop this is not good for men it has a non working

marker in it that looks to the brain like it's Estradiol high levels of this

fool the brain into thinking it's Testsoterone and your levels can go down.

Hi Phil,

Thanks for your post. Is 575 a good level? Do I need to supplement testosterone?

I will ask my doctor to test my Estradiol levels.

Thanks for the links!

Sorry I forgot to answer your question about morning and evening wood. I am not

sure exactly what you are asking. Could you explain?

I don't have a problem getting an erection when aroused but don't wake up with

one..

Thanks paul

For a lot of men yes this is a good level and if your Estradiol levels are high

getting them down your Testosterone levels will test higher.

What happens is your brain can't tell the difference between Testosterone and

Estradiol Estradiol is made from Testosterone. So if your Estradiol levels are

high your brain will think it's Testostreone and slow down sending the LH and

FSH message to your testis to make more testosterone so you end up with lower

levels. One can get there levels higher just getting there Estradiol levels

down. If you don't get involuntary nocturnal erections that appear during REM

(Rapid Eye Movement) sleep. It can mean your Estradiol levels are to high the

first thing that came back for me getting my high Estradiol levels down was my

involuntary nocturnal erections that appear during REM (Rapid Eye Movement)

sleep came back.

Your in the UK I don't know if your Endo will give you Arimidex to get this down

if your to high. But you can use DIM this works and is sold OTC.

575 is a good level. Levels can vary by as much as 200-300 points in

hours.

You don't need " supplementation " . T cannot be supplemented. When you

take extra testosterone feed back mechanisms tell the brain to order

less. You levels can actually fall. Testosterone is a REP{LACEMENT

therapy. You take so much natural production essentially stops and all

the T you get is from the therapy. SO you definitely don't want to go

that road to pick up a few points.

If you are high in E2 treating that can boost your total levels 200 to

300 points.
