My lab results!

[JustOne]

woopty woop finally got my results back.

Prolactin: 272 mIU/L (0-500) (performed using Abbot method)
Cortisol 11am: 350 nmol/L (AM138-650 PM70-325)
Oestradiol: 36.1 pg/ml (<46.1) (performed using Roche method)
FSH: 11.6 U/L (1-9.2)
LH: 7.2 U/L (2-8)
Total Testosterone: 551 ng/dl (231-1096)
SHBG 18 nmol/L (10-50)
Free Androgen Index 106% (20-130)
Free testosterone: 56 pmol/L (43-138)
Total PSA: 0.51 ng/mL (0-2.5) ((performed using Abbot method)
TSH 1.08mIU/L (0.3-4)
T3 and T4 was withheld because of normal TSH level
IGF-1: 24 nmol/L (24-102)
Homocysteine 9.3 umol/L (6.0-14.0)
Fasting Insulin 5.9 mU/L (0-20)

Plat Count 158 x10^9/L (150-450)
Cholestrol 4.2 nmol/L (3.9-5.5)
Triglycerides 0.8nmol/L (0.5-1.7)
Bilirubin 21 umol/L (0-20) *better then last time
AST & ALT 13 U/L (0-40)

Metabolic Panel pending cause of screw up in pathologist not know what he was doing.

Comments anyone?
Anything I can do about my low Plat count?

[JustOne]

My prolactin is 12.8 ng/ml (0-23.5)

DHT was sent to some hospital to get tested for.
lipid panel is pending
I had to call in for T3 and T4 cause TSH was normal, but there sending the results now.

Here is a conversion calculator: http://www.globalrph.com/conventional_si.htm

It would help to translate the SI to Conventional units so that the albs would be more understandable to those of us in the U.S.

It is important to obtain the fasting glucose value to correlate it with the insulin level.

IGF-1 is an indirect measure of growth hormone. It is influenced also by Testosterone, DHEA and Estradiol levels. Optimizing these and other hormones affected by growth hormone makes it clearer if there is a growth hormone deficiency.

The Free T3 and Free T4 are more important than TSH to help diagnosis hypothyroidism. The history and physical exam are far more important.

SHBG which is low is most correlated with high insulin levels (such as in diabetes). However, SHBG is influenced by multiple hormones such as those that increase it (such as thyroid hormone, estrogens, and progesterone) and those that decrease it (such as androgens, growth hormone, and insulin).

Cortisol level is useful in determining the presence of adrenal fatigue. But when doing lab tests, it is also important to correlate it to DHEA-s, Progesterone, blood glucose, Albumin, sodium, potassium, and other lab studies to determine if there is adrenal fatigue. A physical exam and the history would also be highly useful.

[JustOne]

Albumin 47 g/L (38-55)
sodium (141 mmol/L (135-141)
potassium 4.5 mmol/L (3.5-5.6)

WBC 5.9 (4-11)
RCC 5.44 (4.3-6.2)

Is there a way to raise my cell count like certain foods or suppliments?

For such a young guy, your total and free T appear to be on the low side. Also, your E2 seems somewhat high. I guess this would not be a concern if you had no hypogonadal symptoms, but you do, right? Your FSH and LH are high, which I assume is consistent with the fact that you had problems with your testicle (i.e., your pituitary is putting out high amounts of these hormones to try to get your T levels up). I am no doctor, but these levels do not seem typical for someone of your age (esp. if you're getting symptoms of hypogonadism). What does your doc. say?

Yea big symptoms, a lil too big to be just my T and E2, I am started to suspect adrenal fatigue.
My urologist said, there like his levels and there fine, then he told me it will shrink my testicle, wich I quickly respondes no and explained to him HCG.

All my doctors except my Anti aging doctors are fucked, seriously fucked, withholding infomation, insincere gestures, misdiagnoses, and I am not talking about HRT either, but its for another thread.
