Long time lurker hoping for second opinions on lab results

[Dirtnasty]

Been so long since I’ve had any but those don’t seem
Bad so interesting that test is low with the two hormones that stimulate production being in range

 

[Poppy]

Zactlly my thoughts you’re in range clinically for lh n fsh…… your t is waay low for a man your age.

You should be able to get a script with those numbers.

 

[Poppy]

Wait…is that after your current (low) trt injections?

 

[mrtestresults]

Never took a trt injection. I’ve been sitting on the vial I was given until I got a second opinion.

 

[Poppy]

Ahhh I remember now. I’m a goober.

That should get you a script.

 

[Poppy]

Just reread everything up top. I remember now… you had the absolute idiot doc!!!

 

[Aude_Aliquid_Dignu]

FSH and LH are hormone markers that can help determine if your body is out of whack making its own test.

Are you having low Test symptoms?

 

[mrtestresults]

From what I’ve seen symptoms can be pretty much anything, but yes.

Over the last year:

• Rapid hair loss
• I’ve always had issues keeping weight off but its been noticeably harded
• The general not wanting to do the things that I 100% have to do.
• sex drive is down like 80%

I’ve also never been able to grow much facial hair, and I have very little body hair.

I’m not sure if this issue is recent (last year) or if its always been a problem but I never considered it.

I’ve never put much thought into the symptoms, I just assumed that it was from getting older, or that I was just being lazy.

 

[Aude_Aliquid_Dignu]

Sorry to hear that, but glad you are getting to the right doctors now.

Keep us updated…i’ll continue to follow along.

Ask any questions along the way!

I got your share

 

[mrtestresults]

For anyone following along

I was referred to an endo who has been getting me every test possible.

Repeated tests are showing:

1. Test 150ng ± (very low)
2. Prolactin 23ng (rather high)
3. Normal pretty much everything else

Endo has some pretty bad theories and is trying to get me a brain scan, but it’ll be awhile before that happens. So in the mean time I’m being prescribed caber 0.25 mg 2x week.

Curious if anyone has encountered similar results

 

[Poppy]

Never prescribed caber. Others will probably be more knowledgeable.

Seems like they’re dancing around trt…

 

[Mossy1985]

How soon is your next labs?

 

[Dirtnasty]

The caber will lower your prolactin but that’s only treating one problem

 

[Neuro]

Caber is treating a symptom. Your high prolactin is driving your test down. You need to get to the bottom of why that’s so elevated.

.25 twice a week will drop it quick. I would ask for repeat labs after two weeks. Caber is a strong drug, which means strong side effects.

 

[Dirtnasty]

But if you can get it up now will be the time to get sowm
Action in great orgasms and supposedly faster recover time in between sessions

 

[Aude_Aliquid_Dignu]

Lower your Prolactin should drastically help your libido issues.
I would recommend the following after you confirm a causal link between the two via the Caber:

800iu of Vitamin E daily
200mg of Vitamin P-5-P daily
Reduced my prolactin 50% after 8 weeks w/o the use of Prami or Caber.

Also some doctors don’t think to treat high prolactin until its well north of your current number btw.
Be wary of doctors who are a solution chasing a problem.
