-testes ache, ever, with a fever? Used to, when I had a varicocele
-how have morning wood and nocturnal erections changed - 5 times a week I’ll have morning wood.
LAB WORK:
I have to drive to the hospital which is a good 15 miles away to get the exact numbers and ranges, but the ranges are just from quest.
IMPORTANT NUMBERS:
TT- 437 ng/dL (done in June 2014, January 2013 was 577 ng/dL)
E2- 47 pg/mL (was 27 in January 2013)
Free Testosterone- 129 pg/mL (was 155 in January 2013)
Prolactin - 18.4 (I don’t think this is a big deal, doctor said it’s a bit high but there’s a host of factors that can cause it to rise within the upper limits of the normal range)
FSH / LH - 2.7 / 5.1 respectively (GnRH are probably being inhibited by E2)

HOW MY NUMBERS WENT TO SHIT: I went on a glory bulk from January to June and stupidly gained 30 pounds. I’ve been eating at maintenance since then… but haven’t dropped a significant amount of weight, which leads me to believe that my E2 and TT aren’t MUCH different.
My sex drive tanked around 1 year ago when I first moved into my university. Orgasm intensity, amount of sperm, random erections ALL WENT AWAY within 2 weeks of moving in. It boggles my mind how this all happened so quickly, and I haven’t recovered since then. It wasn’t the school I wanted to go to so I think it was a mild case of depression. But shouldn’t it have receded since then?
An interesting thing is that I felt WORSE at 577 then 437 ng/dL TT … but I still definitely don’t feel fully recovered. I had a varicocele surgery between the time which both bloodworks were done
Klinefelter’s Syndrome and all that stuff isn’t a possibility because of normal sized testes, development, and relatively LOW GnRH function. OTC Spermchecker showed that I did have more than 20M/mL. Being that KS patients almost all demonstrate azoospermia, I don’t think I fall in this category.

My questions to the community and KSMan, specifically:
- 2 doctors haven’t prescribed be Anastrozole or Arimidex for my E2 levels. Most of them said lose weight. Would losing weight make my E2 levels come back to normal? Is there another way I can get a script lol?
- Is my prolactin something to worry about it? I’ve been supplementing with B6 just in case it is an issue.
- Could porn cause this much desensitization? My ejaculations aren’t great, I don’t
view a woman in the same sexual way that I used to…My orgasms aren’t as viscous as they used to be. I am not sure if ALL that can be explained by just porn…
