What are the symptoms of low DHT?

[MBB]

Does anyone know what the symptoms are of low DHT? Do they mimic that of high/low E2?

LOL. Well if it's got you stumped, then it must be hard

I thought low libido was a symptom of low DHT - witness the problems many have with finasteride, a DHT blocker.

That's what I've also read. But I'm wondering if it can appear as high/low E2 symptoms, like fatigue, joint pain, etc. There just doesn't seem to be much info about it floating around.

When I was on shots my DHT levels were low - 28 (Range: 30-85). Now that I am on Axiron my levels jumped to 76. However, I saw no benefit from it personally. My doctor believes the Lexapro is negating the effects on libido from TRT.
