Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 How are your Estradiol levels on your last test do you have sore and hard nipples or ED do you get good wood in your sleep if not your on the high side. This will make your SHBG levels higher and bind up your Testosterone levels making your Free Testosterone go down. Other then that all I could say is test your Cortisol and Thyroid levels. If you feel your Estradiol levels are high and you don't treat this get some Indolplex/DIM from this link and take one tablet a day at dinner time to get this down. http://www.iherb.com/Enzymatic-Therapy-Pure-Rip-with-DIM-60-Tablets/12814?at=0 Co-Moderator Phil > From: cabaretic <cabaretic@...> > Subject: Extreme Fatigue, Even with Testosterone > > Date: Tuesday, December 21, 2010, 3:05 PM > Hello All, > > The past couple days I've been having some really intense > fatigue, the sort that lasts all day and doesn't let > up.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Hi Phil, I'm not sure I've had Estradiol levels taken. Where do I look to find them on a lab sheet? I do have sensitive, sometimes hard nipples. ED is not a tremendous issue, though erections could be longer lasting. I rarely get erections in my sleep and haven't for a long time. I've got new labs to be taken in two weeks, after which I'll know more. . -- http://www.myspace.com/cabaretic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 If you use Quest labs get this tested it's the best test for Estradiol. Estradiol sensitive Code #4021 Testosterone, Free, Bioavailable & Total LC/MS/MS Code # 14966X. On your labs it will say Estradiol E2 but from what your saying your levels are high get the DIM from the link I gave you so you can start feeling better.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 How high is your SHBG?  <em><strong>STAND UP, GET UP</strong></em> <em><strong>FIGHT THE POWER</strong></em> <em><strong>UP YOU MIGHTY PEOPLE</strong></em> <em><strong>PRIDE (IN THE NAME OF LOVE)</strong></em> ________________________________ From: cabaretic <cabaretic@...> Sent: Tue, December 21, 2010 2:05:13 PM Subject: Extreme Fatigue, Even with Testosterone  Hello All, The past couple days I've been having some really intense fatigue, the sort that lasts all day and doesn't let up. Even walking up a flight of stairs leaves me feeling exhausted. My last testosterone injection was Saturday, so I should be close to peak concentration, correct? Testosterone has been helpful in providing additional energy up until this point, so I'm really surprised that I'm feeling this way now. If I didn't know better, I'd think my immune system wasn't functioning properly. I've had two pesky cold sores on the corners of my mouth that two rounds of the best over-the-counter ointment hasn't healed. In addition to that, I find myself having to pee constantly, which gets old quite quickly. Is any or all of this to be expected? I won't know more for another month until my appointment with an endocrinologist, but I'd sure like to know what to tell him. Thanks! .

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I'm not sure about that, either. I think I may have to wait until the endocrinologist visit. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 No nighttime wood says high estradiol to me. Cold sores and fatigue says low cortisol. If that's the case, know you're not alone. A lot of us have low cortisol/ thyroid along with low T. I really believe it's an undiscovered " syndrome " of sorts. > > I'm not sure about that, either.
