Total HPTA Shutdown PLEASE Advise

Started testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) with 200mgs of Test Cyp. Doc prescribed EOW. Being a total newbie, not thinking straight cause I just wanted to finally get some relief, and thinking that more is better, I did my 2nd inject of 200mgs only five days later. Eight days after that 2nd inject I had extensive labs done. Both my LH and FSH levels were practically nil. Is it possible that my HPTA was completely shutdown due to those two injects or was there most likely a preexisting condition?

On another note, my estradiol level was out of control as well, with a value of 72.

Any ideas, theories, suggestions will be highly appreciated. I am feeling REALLY REALLY BAD right now......
 
1) Follow the doctor's protocol. 2) Ask your doctor. 3) If you are unhappy with your doctor get a new one. You know the answers to your questions. You have heard of an aromatase inhibitor. You understand that SHBG controls free testosterone levels, which can be low despite a high total testosterone level. The HPTA will return to normal after the testosterone exits your system. More is not always better.
