    FSH 2.1 mIU/mL 1.5-12.4 ( THIS MIGHT BE REASON I HAVE LOWER EJACULATION VOLUME FROM BEFORE, SHOULD I LOOK INTO HMG ? ) High cortisol (stress hormone) has multiple debiliting factors including hurting your test level as well as crushing your dhea level. DHEA is in your hormone cascade - basically cholesterol-pregnenolone-progesterone-dhea-test-dht-estrogen and many side bars in between

    Prolactin, Serum 16.2 ng/mL 4.0-15.2 ( i think it was causing my the problems i had/still have some , the PH i took had side effect of raising prolactin ) I READ IT CAN CAUSE ED Will definitely cause libido/ejaculatory issues. Get caber asap! Maybe .25 x 2 per week will crush your prolactin level IMHO

    DHEA 21.1 ng/mL 1.8-12.5 dont know what is this but its high! Answered above but never hurts to add in micronized dhea at maybe 25mg then test results dependent up to no more than 50. LEF.com's dhea is all micronized. non-micro won't do crap for you.

    LH 5.8 mIU/mL 1.7-8.6 good
    Growth hormone <0.1 ng/mL <0.3

    Estradoil 29.27 pg/mL 7.63-42.60 Does not appear to be a sensitive assay which makes it pretty much worthless

    C-peptide, serum 0.65 ng/mL 0.81-3.85 ( low)

    SEX HORMONE BINDING GLOBULIN 39 nmol/L 10-57 Tad high. Vit D3 will help suppress it and allow more free T, as will Nettle Root and avena co-sides. Prescription Danazol will work but I don't think you need that course of action

    IGF-I ( SOMATOMOMEDIN-C) 190 ng/mL 116-424 Again, correct cortisol issues

    Testosterone , Total,S. 673.8 ng/dL 249.0-836.0 good

    testosterone , Free , Serum 12.45 pg/mL 8.80-27.00 ( LOW ? ) yes, low

    % free testosterone 1.9 LOW 2.0-4.8 want this between 2 & 3. Closer to 3

    TSH 2.140 UIU/ML 0.270-4.200 better range .3 - 3.0.
    FT3 2.82 pg/mL 2.00-4.200 mid-range would like higher
    FT4 1.42 ng/mL 0.93-1.70

    Folate ( folic acid) 11.1 ng/mL 7.2-15.4
    Vitamin B12 652 pg/mL 211-946
    Vitamin D 19 LOW ng/mL 30-100 Horrible. Supplement with D3. Personally I'd go 10K IU at day for a month then drop to 5K.

    LIPID PANEL

    CHOL 134 mg/dL 120-220
    TRIG 42 mg/DL 30-150
    HDL 44 mg/DL 35-80
    LDLC 81 mg/DL 0-130

    PSA, total
    PSA 0.58 ng/mL 0.00-4.40 awesome


    let me know what you think
    doctor said you are fine, i told her about Prolactin and DHEA being high , she said its ok!!! i asked her about caber and she was like dont take that you get testicular cancer find another doc asap. one with testicals
    she is really dumb so i dont know!!!
    she also said that "testosterone free serum " is on the low side because of SHBG being little on high side she got one right

    also look into my IGF-I isnt it low !?!?


    PS. i read that high prolactin could cause Erectile Dysfunction.. i had bad one and it got better , much beter
    but i still have MINOR ED every now and then ... could that be related ?

    Above in bold. Hope it helps!

    Wow man thank you so much help
    I will get some caber now . Use it for 2 months then take another blood work at 0.25 mg x2/wk ?
    No taper up and down ?
    Also for micronized dhea , will that fix the cortisol level therefore Lower DHEA and increase IGF levels ?
    Run it for 2 months as well ???
    I will get those supplements you said and start with them asap

    Im really happy that my testosterone levels are fine and i dont need HCG or SERMS

    Im going to find another doctor for next time
    But for now im going to order these things and give it couple of months on the stuff
    Then do a blood work few weeks after stopping

    Anything else i need ?
