Am I worrying too much? Low test, elevated liver enzymes, acne, gyno etc @ 20

[smackthatAAS]

Other thing I should mention are that I feel fatigued and tired quite often and I'm unable to concentrate and it's been like this for years. Since Around the beginning of my teenage years.

You need thyroid labs.

Free T3
Total T3
TSH
Reverse T3

I dont personally really care for T4 but might as well get Free T4 and Total T4 done as well.

Your cortisol actually looks good. A little above range for morning cortisol is optimal.

I had TSH done a while back. 1.35mIU/L Ref:0.50-4.00.


I'll get back with my E2 and IGF today. I'll ask the doctor for aromasan or arimidex and a referal to an endocrinologist.

I'll get another blood test soon for the LFT after runnning liv52 for a couple weeks. I am thinking about getting that synthergine if my values remain poor.

Normal doctors are free here but they are often only good for getting antibiotics off - I had one tell me that accutane is an anti-androgen . Blood tests are all free for me.

So does anyone have a good list of what else to order next time?

So the potential list is:

-LH and FSH [LH/FSH]
-TT
-FT or bio-T
-E2
-Prolactin
-PSA (won't hurt)

-Free T3
-Total T3
-TSH
-Reverse T3

-LFT

-Lipids

-Cortisol
-Pregnenolone
-DHEA

I'd throw in RBC, Hemoglobin and Hema. that about $800 in tests if you get them from the doc. Still a couple hundy thru Private Md. must be nice getting free bloods!

Just got IGF-1 back and it was 56nmol/L (ref:24-52). Pretty good I think!

E2 still not back... I'll ring the pathologists and see what's happening.

Going for another blood test on Tuesday. Got everything I listed except the FT3, TT3, Reverse T3, Lipids, and pregnenolone. Certain specialised tests are not covered by my college/government.

Didn't get RBC and hemo, etc because I missed your post man. Sorry.

In the past I had a full blood count:

HB: 16.7 g/dL (13-18)
PCV: 49.2% (40-54)
RCC: 5.31 x1012/L (4.50-6.50)
MCV: 93fL (80-96)
MCH: 31.4 pg (27-32)
MCHC: 33.9 G/dL (32.0-36.0)
I'll just take a pic. too lazy to type it all out...

Doctor said my hormone levels (including test), high BP should go normal if I do cardio and that I should see changes within a month. I'll try that.

So I just had a chat to another doctor about my testosterone issues and I got to say I feel really shit...

He told me that because the testosterone was in the reference range, it is normal. I showed him a cited table showing the averages and percentiles of testosterone levels in men. I pointed out that I was under the 5th percentile for men ages 50-59. That means 95% of men aged 50-59 have more testosterone than me. So I'm probably in the 3rd percentile for men my age.

He then went on to say (pretty much) that this is all in my head. I argued on and then he started asking questions about my personal life. He then recommended I go out and find a lady to fuck to check my sexual function. I honestly feel like a pussy, I don't feel like a man.

I can't believe it, through out he had a smirk on his face and I just wanted to punch the fuck out of him.

But, I got my estradiol back:


**broken link removed**


Previous bloods

**broken link removed**


The estradiol, it looks like it's normal to me but I don't l know.... Should I still get aromasin? Is Clomid now an option to get testosterone up?


I followed the basic 3 meal diet on the previous page except I didn't have the yams and so I ate rolled oats in water. Still going on with cardio too.

I got new blood tests back. My ALP went up to 215 and my billirubin more than doubled to 28 in 2 weeks. I'm going in for a ultrasound of my liver.


T is at 16nmol/L, E2 at 88pmol/L. I believe the balance is out of whack.

LH: 3.0IU/L ref:1.5-9.3
FSH: 4.7IU/L ref:1.4-18
Prolactin: 350 mIU/L ref:45-375
Cortisol: 582nmol/L ref:119-618
Doctor thinks my hormones are fine. I believe LH and FSH are lowish and cortisol and prolactin high.

Since May, my GFR went down from 120+ to 95. Potassium is 5.3mmol/L ref 3.5-5.0.

I don't know why my values are so crap. Apart from antibiotic for 3 months and modafinil for a week, since May till recently, things have been fairly similar. I'm still doing that new diet and have been running and working my way up to 20min a day. I replaced oats with yams as well.


It really pisses me off. A great deal of of people around me fuck around binge drinking every weekend, smoking weed, sitting on the couch eating bon bons and they are probably healthier than me. Me, I have low T, I get gyno, I get acne, and so on...

We're not in the business of diagnosing illnesses here. It sounds like you have a medical problem. It's not going to be resolved here with some proviron and clomid. Your bloodwork doesn't look that bad really on the hormone side unless I'm missing something (but I'll admit I didn't take that long to look at your entire medical chart here). We're not staffed for this here.

See a licensed doctor and/or go to your nearest emergency care center
