Blood work back. Having problems with libido.

I'm 7 weeks into my second cycle. Taking 300mg test E a week, split into two shots. I'm also using adex .25 ED and T3 at 30mcg.

Anyway, the last few weeks, I have just felt lethargic. I can attribute this to the t3 maybe (first time i've used it), but I've been struggling with my libido. I've had trouble getting an erection and even more difficulty maintaining one. Sensitivity is also down. Kinda like someone sprinkled some novacaine on my wang. Not feeling anything like I did on my first cycle, which was 2 years ago (500mg test and .5 dex ED). I assumed my E2 was way outta wack, but it's not.

e2: 19.5
LH: 23.6
FSH: 13.3

Any feedback, suggestions, etc.

I've taken ZMA before for sleep. I will give the others a try. I've been using some liquid cialis and it doesn't want to work for me right now either.

Yeah, it is bit on the low side. Should I be looking for about 25-28?? If I do .5mg EOD, i'm still using the same as i'm at .25ED. Think I'll drop to .25 EOD and see what that does for me.

If cialis is legit, you will know quickly. I usually get a slight headache/can feel my blood pressure rising within 15-20 minutes.

Something is wrong here and I do not know how nobody caught this but your test is bunk. Your LH and FSH should be shut down vs the numbers you posted...Unless I am missing something here :)
 
Can you please post a picture of your blood work? I would like to see all of it along with reference ranges.

With LH and FSH that high you clearly are not using testosterone or any other type of AAS if your blood lab is reliable.

We need to see your TSH to know if your T3is real or not. But if it is real and your teat is fake, you have been burning away muscle.

You feel bad most likely because you are taking an AI while not on test and using T3 while not on test.

So please post full lab results that you have gotten on cycle. Most recent and any prior ones. And state clearly what your protocol was at the time and duration of said protocol.

Gotta admit, I overlooked it too. Then my head exploded because I can't think of an injectable that can do that. Even a SERM would leave lh/fsh at nil if there's legit test.

Maybe injecting clomid (liquid in an oil base?) could do that, but I'd think the lh and FSH would be even higher. Or its miracle test and OP feels ill because he's turning into superman. :laugh:

There is something wrong with those labs. It is highly unlikely that your TT is >1500 with LH and FSH that high. We typically see LH and FSH that high in cases a primary hypogonadism. However, if you were taking exogenous testosterone they would both be at essentially zero.

I recommend re-running your blood work.

Check your TSH too so you can see if your T3 is working.

Will do. I ran it at lapcorp thru privatemdlabs.......weird......

So what should I do in the meantime? I should be pinning tonight. I'm halfway considering saying fuck it........ Should I get on the horn and order new ancilliaries while I'm at it? I have 2 diff brands of adex, clomid and novla.

I think the t3 is legit. I have dropped weight too fast. Anyway, just ordered a female panel and thyroid panel from labsmd

My LH hits 20 iu/L on Clomid monotherapy. I also hit just under 900ng/dl with those values.

I'm thinking OP is SERM... I don't think only 0.25mg adex ed would crank out the gonadotropins that much would it?

Perhaps the lethargy is coming from the T3 aswell... 30mcg isn't much above a HRT dose.

Or maybe the bloods are just plain wrong. Either way this is an odd case lol...
