Re: Lipid profile question

Mike,

HOrmones do play a huge part in proper lipid panels, but lifestyle, and

nutrition play a much bigger role. Some times genetics also affect <5% of all

people with altered lipid profile and medical intervention is a must.

If you mean high cholesterol, that is controlled by your liver, so any

drugs/diet that affect the liver (like alcohol), will affect your lipids.

Hormone-wise, low thyroid certainly correlates with high cholesterol, and I've

seen a correlation with low testosterone also.

Estrogen tends to increase triglycerides, HDL and LDL.  High testosterone can

also decrease HDL.  Funny thing is that low testosterone can also decrease HDL.

Before I started Androgel, my HDL was in the low 40's.  After starting

Androgel,

it dropped to 32.  However, within a year it was back up to the low 40's.

When I added HCG to my routine, my testosterone went too high.  My HDL dropped

significantly too.  However, at a level of 679 (scale 200 - 800), my HDL was

high.  At a level of 1,070, my HDL dropped to 51.  Six weeks later, when my

testosterone dropped to 679, it rose to 71.

As a rule-of-thumb, testosterone tends to lower LDL and triglycerides.

Hey Group,

Does high estrogen or low testosterone or both cause a poor lipid profile?

Just got some labs back and my lipid profile is horrible.

Yes it can it's best to be leveled off then redo your labs. Get some Krill Oil
