Thank you for the replies so far. This is definately going to require a good doctor, but looking at the results so far, what are the probable causes of the estradiol (ultrasensitive) being high, considering my bioavailable
testosterone is pretty good. Is my free
testosterone at 127.8 Does this sound like a possible testicle tumor (leydig) or adrenal tumor. Or does this seem more like thyroid condition with adrenal fatigue? I want to get to the bottom of the cause, and treat from there. I'm guessing im going to need to see an Endocrinologist to begin some treatment. Any recommendations for Florida/Georgia area? Also, my previous testesterone
test done in June was
Free Testosterone 202.1 H 35.0-155.0 pg/mL
I was high at 202.1 H, and the range was 35.0 - 155.0 pg/mL
The new
test shows
Testosterone Free 127.8 46.0 - 224.0 pg/mL.
Why is there such a different range, since both were done by Quest. The newer one includes bioavailable. Are they comparable, or did they use a more sensitive testing method this time around? If not, my testosterone free almost dropped in half within the last 2 months. Also, will the
DHT and Estradiol Free levels, which should definately be in tomorrow, give any other insights into this condition? Thanks again.
phil-
I'll try to
test for the CAH next time I get bloodwork, but I think the prolactinoma is ruled out with my prolactin levels, right? Thanks for the ideas.
