Avatar m tn This equates a bit to the old cliché about sex drive in men, being crazy in the teens and less so as we get old. Having higher than normal levels of estrogen though are linked to prostate cancer and heart disease. And they are probably going to want to make sure there is nothing like a tumor in your testes. There's also all those other things like enlarged breast tissue, loss of muscle mass and erectile dysfunction that can happen too if estrogen gets too out of control for a dude.
Avatar n tn Does this mean it could be caused from ovarian cancer or are my labs just out of whack because of estradiol dose being too high??
1418198 tn?1483277496 Ah. Okies. Well in terms of what is high or low, it also depends on when it was taken. Women have different levels in their bodies at different times, and there's a wide range of what's high/low and normal.
Avatar f tn Estradiol is a type of estrogen. Follow up with your healthcare provider who did the test. That's what they're there for. They have a bigger picture of your health history and can help you decide if this is the result that requires further investigation.
Avatar f tn Having a hard time finding any information on high estradiol levels. Any ideas?
Avatar n tn i have been reading and i believe that estrogen plays a very important role in conceiving! am i wrong? do levels get higher throughout your cycle? has anyone had troubles conceiving with low levels? . can someone take estrogen supplements? we've been ttc for over three years and i have had the fertily workup done back then and there is no blockage in my tubes, or anything.
Avatar f tn but, as you can see, they are well over 80 around ovulation Estradiol (E2) Day 3 25-75 pg/ml Levels on the lower end tend to be better for stimulating. Abnormally high levels on day 3 may indicate existence of a functional cyst or diminished ovarian reserve. Estradiol (E2) Day 4-5 of meds 100+ pg/ml or 2x Day 3 There are no charts showing E2 levels during stimulation since there is a wide variation depending on how many follicles are being produced and their size.
Avatar m tn WeRDead, that's a lot of info, fairly technical, I don't have the Pharmaceutical knowledge offhand to know whether all of this is accurate, but I don't think he'd wanna use Estradiol - that's a female hormone w/ side effects of decreased Testosterone, decreased libido, possible ED, possible breast development in men, and a too-high level of Estradiol can also cause prostate enlargement & other issues, so I'm not sure why you'd be advocating that for ANY man, and e
Avatar f tn s a fairly normal level of estradiol pre-menopause. the FSH is elevated but not nearly as high as it might be in menopause. I'm still not yet through to the other side of menopause with estradiol at <10 and my FSH around 90. You are in the age range to have perimeno symptoms. These can fluctuate a LOT. You could all of a sudden begin getting regular periods again, keep having them be spaced out or anything inbetween.
Avatar n tn But then the testo equations are often so confusing that only experts will be able to give a correct diagnosis of the problem. As I see, the low free testo suggests you have high levels of SHBG, which may also suggest that if SHBG were to be reduced, your estrogen level would have also gone up, as SHBG binds to both testo and estrogen.
Avatar f tn A year ago my CD4 FSH was only 9.9 but my estradiol was 80...what could cause such a reversal of results and what does the estradiol level mean in relation to the FSH level? I had an HSG which came back normal, I had an ultrasound done last year as well which during that time my RE saw an egg which he said looked healthy being ready to be released from my left ovary. I do not have ANY symptoms what-so-ever of PCOS or pre or peri menopause.
Avatar f tn Hi, everybody. My name's Kristin. I really, really hope someone here can help me. I'm terrified. I'm twenty-four, but for the last eight months or so, I've been having menopausal symptoms. My doctor had my FSH, LH, progesterone, and estradiol levels tested twice. Here are my results: FSH first test: 6.2 second test: 6.8 LH first test: normal apparently, but I didn't see what exactly it was second test: 7.
Avatar f tn s ranges show a max non-pregnancy and non-menopausal value of estradiol to be 498 pg/mL and estrone 268 pg/mL. Estradiol can exceed 4300 in the first trimester of pregnancy. And post-menopausal levels are less than 54 and less than 65, respectively.
Avatar f tn Can you check these levels yourself or is this something you have to go in and have a doctor do? Only curious because I've been considering going in to seek professional advice too. I'm 29, TTC for 6 months and no signs of ovulation or baby at all. Never been on BC, had a miscarriage or an abortion. I'm curious what my estradiol and FsH levels are. Best wishes to you, sprinkling baby dust your way!
215752 tn?1278004771 I was never given my numbers... I was just told if they were ok or not. but from the little I've read, that does seem an awfully high number... at least for the progesterone. I'm not sure about the estradiol. Good luck with the beta!

374593 tn?1257879950 E2 levels supposed to be 200-600 per mature follicle at the time of the trigger. Elevated E2 I think indicates overstimulation. Good luck to yoou this cycle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avatar n tn s happening in my hormone level? Why is is so volutile? Am I in the premenapousal stage? But in my outlook there's no change. Please advice me my GYN is not very concerned. He says there's nothing to worry. But Im really worried.
Avatar m tn m really worried about my health and wondering how to get my T on healthy levels and how to get rid of excess estrogen from of my system, any recommendations on Aromatase Inhibitors ?
Avatar f tn On the other hand, I do not intend to get pregnant right now but would like so in 4-5 years or so. I also have read that high prolactin levels may stop ovulation. Now, I never not ovulated while not on treatment, but ovulated late (35-40 days cycle). What are my chances of getting pregnant in a near future with these levels? I am afraid of not being able to get pregnant.

Avatar m tn “Increased estradiol levels in venous occlusive disorder: a possible functional mechanism of venous leakage”, INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF IMPOTENCE RESEARCH, Volume: 17, Issue: 3, Pages: 239-242, Published: MAY-JUN 2005 As I gather, it's mostly hormonal. testosterone-and estradiol-related.
Avatar n tn last cycle we took a couple of days off from the follistim before we triggered so that the levels could come down a bit. (i had a much higher level though; 3800!) I did have to take the ganirelix to prevent ovulation from occurring though until we were ready to trigger.
