I am having symptoms of high E. My stomach feels bloated all the time. I workout all the time. Eat well. I simply cannot lose weight around stomach and its about 10-15 pounds. Shortness of breath after a set of bench press for example. Only happened past year . Moderate increase in Blood pressure. I have used Pro hormones years ago without a decent pCT. I developed gyno about 4 years ago and now it flares quite a bit. Not sure why. HEre is what I do know. I have talked to someone about TRT and they cannot treat me because of high levels
Total t + free = 869
Free T = 10.1 %
SBHG = 69.9 (High)
Glucose was a little high and ALT was just a little high
Estradoil 27.7
Cortisol AM 13.7(probably high)
I was told I don’t have much free T and somehow SHBG is high
Would these side effects I have be caused by this? Please let me know
I also took propecia when I was 22 until about 31 or so. I quit because I thought it was causing side effects. I am 37 now.
Few other things to note:
A few things that were high
