Hi,
I am 18 year old guy living in Czech republic. I would like to know what is wrong with me because I can’t live like this anymore. My problems started when I was 13 years old I became really depressed because of my new school. Three years later (16 Y/O) I started experiencing a lot of Low T symptoms ( I didn’t know what testosterone was at that time). I went to urologist and he decided to do a bloodwork. He also checked my testicles and found varicocele → So he put me on the waiting list for surgery. I saw my blood results few days after first visit. Testosterone came back low, So he sent me to endocrinologist. She ordered another blood test–> Testosterone came back bellow the range, Estradiol was skyhigh and my thyroid antibodies were also high ( See blood results bellow).She did ultrasound of my testicles and everything was normal. She also did ultrasound of my thyroid and found out that I have few little cysts ( 5 mm) on my thyroid. She said that my testosterone levels are fine and my thyroid is also fine. She was 100% sure all of my problems are just psychological, So she gave me antidepressants. Few months later my doctor ordered brain MRI. After that they told me that I have a pineal cyst (15x9x8mm). She said it isn’t nothing to worry about. But I read It can shut down some of my hormone levels, especially melatonin. So I’m going to try melatonin suplement because I have very poor sleep quality last few years. And now the most important part of my story.: Endo refused to put me on TRT or any kind of drug that can raise my T levels, because she thinks my lab results are normal. Doctors here in Czech republic won’t put me on TRT because they have absolutely zero knowledge about it. So I bought UGL testosterone cypionate and research chem. arimidex. I want to start taking 100mg testosterone twice a week intramuscular along with arimidex 0.25mg 2/week. But I’m not sure if that can help me because i have very low SHBG. I am wondering if I can raise my SHBG with some kind of thyroid medication because my thyroid is definitely not working properly.
