Well, at least my doctor is honest

I sent my doctor an email, and this was his reply:

Ed,

I am glad that you are taking the initiative in looking into this. I am not

sure what I would do with the results. I would be happy to refer you to a

urologist if you like, though I am not sure they would be better with this

battery of tests.

Subject: Blood test

Hi Dr. Atkins,

I am still having ED, libido issues. I was wondering if I could have my blood

work done again to check for other hormones, Total T, Free T, LH, FSH, SHBG,

Prolactin, & Estradiol (E2). I have been reading on the subject in a mens forum,

I have learned that if any of these hormones are not within a certain range, it

can play havoc with the sex drive, especially E2. I read that the correct T/E2

ratio is pertinent, and that it is common for older men to have more T converted

to E2.

Regards,

Ed
