Avatar n tn I am aware that drug and alcohol use inhibits testosterone production. I used to be an abuser, but have not binge drank or used illicit drugs in over 18 months. This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/434867'>testosterone threapy/prozac</a>.
Avatar m tn Your testosterone level is low, and your TSH is high, the only connection I can think of between the two would be your Pituitary Gland, there ar many different reasons/conditions for low testosterone, mine because of age, that is why I mentioned it. I know excessive alcohol can lower testosterone levels, but I am no MD, I know about thyroid issues, but your Free T3 and Free T4 look fine. What did your MD say about the levels? Any feedback? Sorry I missed the ranges at first glance.
Avatar m tn 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 (s
Avatar m tn Having extra estrogens triggers your body to slow its production of testosterone. And the less testosterone you make, the more belly fat you accumulate and the more estrogens you have. Researchers have also targeted midriff weight as the strongest predictor of a condition called symptomatic androgen deficiency, or AD. It's marked by low libido, erectile dysfunction, osteoporosis, depressed mood, lethargy, and diminished physical performance.
Avatar m tn if my levels are good, should my libido be as well? And should I start worrying about something else instead.. If I had learned that there was only 0,000001% chance for me to permanently loose my libido when taking this, I would of course NEVER have touched it! Is this a renown great pharmaseutical scam that everyone should know about?..
Avatar m tn you need to start taking Probiotics (Acidopilus) to introduce the Good bacteria back into your body to fight off the yeast plus you need to cut back on the sugars and alcohol (yeast feeds off sugars and alcohol) thats why you feel worst after drinking. google candida you'll find all the info you need to get better.
Avatar m tn I faxed him the results to this lab work and he wanted to recheck it in 4 weeks as he felt it might be viral. I am on Crestor, Linsoprosil, Omneprozole and Testosterone Inj for low testosterone syndrome. I have been under stress from quitting chewing and was not feeling well about a week before this blood test and gave myself a testosterone injection about 3-5 days before blood work.
Avatar n tn I take Excedrin on a daily basis due to migraines and I do drink alcohol in the evenings, but that is all I do and have ever done. Is it possible that my body produces extremely high levels of testosterone naturally? If so, is this ok or is something wrong with me? I'm a male, 37 yrs old, 185 lbs, with a history of swollen prostate and extreme pain in my testicles. ANy help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
Avatar f tn You can have a normal testosterone level but if alot of it is bound up to protein it does u no good . The supplement is Funugreek. It releases bound testosterone. I use and it works, test proved it, liquid is the best!

Avatar n tn He was diagnosed with low T about 8 years ago and began testosterone shots. My sweet happy caring husband has changed into someone I no longer recognize. He has major mood swings, anger is the normal for him now. He is very aggressive and abusive mentally and physically. I have tried to have heart to heart conversations with him but he does not see that he has changed he says I have changed.
Avatar f tn many symptoms you discribe are associated with low testosterone in men too. I can share a phamplet with you from my doctor I just got yesterday and was reading about this for my husband.
Avatar m tn So the next thing would be things like, stress, anxiety, to little sleep, high cholesterol, diabetes, depression, alcohol, self image, low libido, low testosterone, a testosterone being to high, and your general health. Do any of these ring bells for you.
Avatar m tn Causes may be psychological, smoking, alcohol, illicit drugs and medical conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart or thyroid conditions, poor circulation, low testosterone, depression, spinal cord and neurological causes. To exactly pinpoint a diagnosis you need to get a complete examination done from a urologist. In your case it looks more psychological. Sildenafil is the drug of choice for erectile dysfunction. However it is available only on a doctor's prescription.
Avatar m tn My goal is to have a “manlier” body frame and look closer to my age, instead of looking like an 18 yr old (very embarrassing when I order alcohol and get I.D.) and be just a bit heavier like 120-130 pound range, not a big goal but a big challenge for me... And what’s this testosterone injection I’ve been hearing about? I don’t know how that stuff works, does it increase muscle and help build up mass and give me a beard? What should I do? Thanks for reading.

Avatar m tn Also fell into a big stress and drank alcohol did not affect my results after 3 months rna pcr and 4th generation test
Avatar f tn lower testosterone as a woman through diet by having no fun and eating low fat, low carbohydrate. Avoid cigs and alcohol. Exercise. Basically, it looks like the healthier you are, the faster it will leave your system. good to know about the gels or creams for the future. Are you going to consider that or has this scared you off?
Avatar m tn s a pretty serious thing. Consoling yourself and using alcohol during hard times is a real issue. Life will always have ups and downs. Heck, parenting is hard work and if drinking is how you ease tension . . . that inappropriate use of alcohol and self medicating. I'd look for a long term source of self soothing that is healthier than this and do know that this pattern can be destructive.
Avatar m tn But long term use of testosterone and other steroids have transient effects and there is no scientific evidence that performance is enhanced. There is abuse liability so I would suggest you to follow up with a physician or endocrinologist for case to case prescriptions. Take care!
Avatar f tn Suboxone not only effects sex drive it effects Testosterone levels. There is a lot of misunderstanding of this out there. Viagra and Cialis without sex drive equals an erection that allows for sex but no satisfaction to the male if there is no drive. Low testosterone causes low sex drive and erectile dysfunction.
Avatar m tn This is occasionally associated with the use of steroids, some medications and also abuse of certain drugs (alcohol, marijuana, heroin). Resection of the excess firm breast tissue with or without liposuction is the typical treatment, although sometimes just liposuction solves the problem. The procedure usually is performed around the nipple areola and the resulting scar is almost invisible for most patients. Best wishes..
Avatar m tn ve been doing some research and its seems that the pills and the alcohol are both vasodilators and can lower blood pressure significantly when taken together.
Avatar m tn As well as being older, worry, lack of sleep and being tired, stress, anxiety, being on medications, consuming alcohol, as well a drop in testosterone levels can all have an effect on your libido and erections. Have a look at your lifestyle and see if you can make any changes to make things better for yourself like having a healthy and balanced diet with fresh fruit and vegetables. Cutting down or cutting out smoking and alcohol.
Avatar f tn Hi. I am a 26yrs old & as of age 23, I've been having difficulty maintaining an erection. Last week I finally mustered up enough coverage to share this with my Doctor, who then took labs to test my testosterone level. I seldom consume alcohol & I never you use drugs. However, around age 23 I did test positive for Guaneria (Spell Check) but I received treatment. Could it still be lingering around my system or could it have caused some type of permanent damage (Impotence)?
