Hi GO, no wait, I think your find its your testosterone, you could be over the top, it them works the other way.

I had some symptoms of low testosterone so I got a blood test and found out I have low testosterone. I quit smoking, went on a diet and am exercising. I gained four pounds of muscle in a month I plan to continue gaining mucle mass and then cutting my fat in about a month.

Now as everybody new to this, i started reading about TRT and what i read ranged between horror stories to a life saving experience.

I changed many Endo at last , the current endo asked me to do more test, which are hormone test, results are below Dec 08 Total Testosterone =235 (241-827) Free Testosterone = 59 (52-99) LH 3.5 (1.5-9.3) FSH 1.6 (1.2-18.1) Prolactin 24 TSH 1.27 (.6-3.5) FT4 1.37 (0.6-1.8) My Endo wanted to MRI to make sure there is no prolactinoma, in MRI it came back with 6mm adenoma . She thinks my testosterone level is low because of high prolactin although it is not significantly high.

I have been tested for various labs, my testosterone tests out high at 865 total, and high bioavailable...I've seen endocrinologists,etc and everything they test appears high normal...I am also physically fit, a body builder, drink rarely, don't smoke...I am absolutely perplexed...I used to be a raging animal sexually and it is as though it has simply shut off. It also effects my ability to maintain and achieve erections. I thought it could be low testosterone...but apparently not...

testosterone that needs to be accounted for, but how much estrogen is present too. Estrogen is preferably bound over testosterone. An estrogen blocker may produce more positive results than adding testosterone. Besides, adding testosterone will shrink your, uh, you know, those two thingies under the other thingie.

The things you listed are good to test also free testosterone, estradiol, shbg, and prolactin. Free testosterone is more important than Therapy will have an effect on your symptoms, however it is permanent and expensive. From what I have heard free testosterone is more important as it is the one available for use by your body. I would think before going onto therapy you should retest at least three times at that low level. What time of the day did you take your test? Are you overweight?

I was morbidly obese @ 320 pounds, depressed with no sex drive. I managed through working out drop to about 250 pounds in six months.

It was <20ng/dl with the normal range being 240-850. Virtually undetectable.

If the beta-blocker was the root cause of the low testosterone should it return to normal now that I am off of it completely? If my libido crashes again can I just restart the Androgel to return to normal. I sure like how I feel now but don't want to be suppressing my natural testosterone production if it could return to normal. Any thoughts from an MD would be appreciated.

They can check your thyroid, iron levels (including ferritin), testosterone levels etc...A testosterone blocker will only work if abnormal testosterone levels are the cause.

I thought tamoxifen was an anti-estrogen blocker but apparently it actually boosts your testosterone as well. I might have really screwed myself here but I'm looking for any help from anyone. Thank you so much....

This may be reason for the drug not working in your case. Also if you are having low testosterone then you may need testosterone supplements. So you should consult a urologist and get blood tests, urine analysis, ultrasound penis and overnight erection test done. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor.

This indicates a increased sensitivity to testosterone and Diane 35 is a testosterone blocker. I wish I knew about diane 35 10 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope this helps.

My question is if he goes for the external radiation and the cancer comes back in a few years the treatment we are told would be a hormone (testosterone) blocking treatment. Why is it that the prostate can not be removed at that point or is it too late and the cells have already moved outside the prostate? Is there any other treatemnt at that point that can be done other than just hormone blockers?

Unless you are taking very large doses of the beta blocker, it shouldn't give you much trouble. All men have a decrease in testosterone as they age. Perhaps you have too. Why not get your total and free testosterone checked and if it is low, consider hormone replacement therapy. The testosterone patches are very safe and may help you to feel better. Make sure that you are getting enough vitamins and minerals especially vitamin C, vitamin B, vitamin E, calcium, zinc and selenium.

I am 21 years old and I look and sound like I am around 15 or younger. I was really hoping that I could get on testosterone to boost some developmental defects I have such as lack of deepening of the voice and lack of body and facial hair.

I tried Viagra when it first became available, but it just caused a burning in my prostate area and a short-lived partial stiffening.

Hello, What you are having could be erectile dysfunction which is psychological in nature. This is usually due to stress, alcohol or tiredness.

Elevated levels may be due to liver disease, but they may also be due to congestive heart failure, alcohol consumption, and use of many prescription and non-prescription drugs including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), lipid-lowering drugs, antibiotics, histamine blockers (used to treat excess stomach acid production), antifungal agents, seizure control medications, antidepressants, and hormones such as testosterone.

Common causes causing erection problem are stress and anxiety,poor communication with your partner, unrealistic sexual expectations, which make sex a task rather than a pleasure,negative feelings about non performance,smoking, alcohol and sometimes illicit drugs and medical conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart or thyroid conditions, poor circulation, low testosterone, depression, spinal cord injury, nerve damage (for example, from prostate surgery), or neurologic disorders (such

Viagra doesn't help if there is a vascular problem or a problem with hormones (i.e. testosterone levels). I would ensure that a good vascular exam (i.e. checking pulses) be done to ensure there are no issues with blood flow. A blood test to check the testosterone level should be considered. If you have diabetes, this should be controlled. You can discuss these options with a urologist. There are some cases where Levitra or Cialis can be tried if Viagra isn't working.

My immune system is fine, I feel fine, and if it were warts...why would I have an outbreak? Could this be caused by any testosterone boosters, or estrogen blockers? I have never taken pure steroids, just the gimmic stuff. Along with protein powder w/L-Glutamine. What are the most common possibilities of these growths? They are as small as 2 grains of salt together. However, I do worry. Thank you.

Hi, If the symptoms are minimal, then there’s no need of the medical treatment and watchful observation is all that is required, however, if the symptoms are disturbing, then medical treatment is required. The medical treatment includes Alpha-blockers which make urination easier by relaxing the muscles where the bladder narrows towards the urethra. Anticholinergics are used to increase the bladder's capacity, inhibit involuntary contractions and delay the urge to urinate.

He put me on a Beta Blocker-It brought my blood pressure down but still the same symptoms, then he tried a calcium Channel Blocker-Same Symptoms, then an angio tension blocker and the List goes on.
