When we see low FT and high E2 we suspect that the problem is impaired liver clearance and AST/ALT labs are of interest. See the highlighted sticky below re effects of some medications.

I do not think that a HPTA restart can work if this is damage from 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor.
But odd to have that and this high E2, so there are two problems.
With TRT you will still need to beat that E2 problem.
Thyroid labs?
Do you use iodized salt to support thyroid hormone production?
Starvation diets can be damaging and can stress the adrenals and elevated rT3.
