Hey all,
Here’s the deal: I am not on AAS or anything, but a recent blood test showed TT of 750 ng/dL and E2 of 7 pg/mL. I saw an endo primarily because I have been having shitty sleep and almost nothing for libido. He says that my low E2 is almost certainly the cause of it.
One other thing that’s been going on along with the bad sleep and no libido is terrible digestion. I get bloated and full really easily. A GI doctor has said I have IBS, but I am not really constipated and I don’t have diarrhea. I just get bloated after meals really easily. (I won’t get into it here, but BELIEVE ME I have tried tons of dietary modifications, stomach acid, enzymes, you name it.)
From a little Internet research, I see that low estrogen often causes digestive problems in women, especially menopausal women. Since I know that most AAS users have, at one time, probably driven their E2 too low with AIs, I was wondering if any of you experienced bad digestion during those times. A long shot, I know, but it would really help me focus on whether my low E2 may be a factor in my digestive issues.
Thanks, fellas.
