Added Adex - Some Labs In.

View attachment 564083

Here are some numbers from my latest batch of labs taken at 8am 3/26 just before my Saturday morning Test injection. I also ordered TSH and DHT, but they havent been processed yet. I also understand I will need to donate blood soon. Im going to Arizona in a few weeks and will do the donation down there and get the right labwork done so i dont have to go though a DR.

1) I didnt think the Adex would lower the Estradiol that fast. Over the course of 2 weeks it pretty much brought it down to normal levels. I was going to explain this to my doctor as I cut out the soy in my diet(yeah i know, its a stretch). Since I got the Adex by other means. So im open to suggestions on how to allay any suspicions my DR has.

2) My Prolactin almost doubled. Side effect of the Adex? I definately feel the effects of the high Prolactin though. Time to try a d2/d3 agonist like caber (edited) ?

How do you feel?

~25 pg/ml is pretty low for the ECLIA assay, so if I were in your shoes I'd back off the Adex a little bit. Expect the sensitive assay to put you in the low single digits right now. That would likely explain the symptoms that you're attributing to the prolactin.

The Adex shouldn't be having an effect on your prolactin. My gut tells me that this is just an outlier lab result. Prolactin fluctuates quite a bit, just like all hormones, so it's possible that something like a recent ejaculation could have caused a spike.

I'd hold off on medicating until more labs confirm that your prolactin is on the rise. Those meds can complicate things, and it still looks like you're getting dialed in.

Also just an FYI, you wouldn't want a D2 antagonist. Adding an antagonist would be a very bad idea. The medications used to bring prolactin down are called Dopamine Agonists.

Thats kinda the kicker. Joints feel fine, my ligaments and tendons are a little fussy. My labwork was at 8am and I did have sex that previous night. As far as function, 1st orgasm was difficult to achieve, 2nd n 3rd time i couldnt finish. Erections were easy to get. Last weekend I was not able to get an erection but i woke up with wood and was able to finish normally with the female i was cuddling. My libido is diminished, I have chicks I could call up but I dont feel like it. My vision is kinda buggy not seeing things but its hard to focus on stuff. Definitely have brain fog.

When I goto AZ I will get the sensitive estradiol test done. Im definately open to suggestions.

When I got the adex I gave myself a 1/4mg then went to 1/8ths ever other day. I recieved it on a Friday and that Tuesday when I went to the clinic i had lost 12 pounds. My blood pressure on that Friday was 170/135. On that Tuesday it was 125/74. The only thing that had chaned is adding the Adex.

In my previous post I meant an agonist like caber. Ideally in liquid form and start with a very very low dose and see what it does. But from my reading the prolactin can be a distress response that my body is using to protect me from something. So im definitely open to any suggestions with respect to that.
