Thread: Estogen Serum Levels High

  1. #1

    Estogen Serum Levels High

    After doing some research on my #'s I noticed that I have an extremely high estrogen serum count of 113 when it should be around 40-50 and my test levels are low at 350, maybe I don't need TRT? What does an Endo do in these situations?

    Also just read that my Free Testosterone should be around 9.3-26.5 pg/mL and I am at 93.9. What does this now mean. Before I thought I was just high on Estrogen and would need an AI but this has thrown me for a loop!

    Let me know if anyone else has been in this situation.

    prolly scripts you an AI. You stil have 'normal' values of test and high estrogen. The AI would increase your test and lower the estrogen obivously, but need to have bloodwork to maek sure the dose is correct and monitor it.

    eat less. Short fasts have been shown to boost test.

    Well that largely explains the high estrogen.

    ok just got back from the doc. He says I am fine and cant do shit for me unless I come up under 250. He thinks I might have adrenal fatigue and wants to check my cortisal levels.

    My estradiol test said anything from 0-140 should be fine and I am at 113 but I was reading Crisler's studies and he says you shouldn't be about 70-80 max.

    This doc is a assistant professor and the minute I brought up Crislers Protocol he started talking shit about him and went on an ego trip talking about how he has written two articles/studies on the topic.

    Don't think this dude cares other then wtf the #'s say. He wants me to take another blood test tomorrow and then another in 3 months.

    Yeah. Just stop using stimulants and take some time off from the gym.

    The adrenal fatigue is not the issue, unless you're really stressed out.
    I'd say your best bet is to get on HRT and use an AI until you can get your BF down.

    I heard adrenal fatigue can caused by many things not just stress, i heard working out too much or too hard. I am thinking of taking some AI to bring down my E levels and see if I start to feel better.

    And that clearly is not the issue.
