I need some help with my rats labs. I've been using ideal Labs supplements for quite some time and nothing seems to be working. I just recently did several blood tests markers. I checked my prolactin which seem to be low. It was in the 7 range. I did an estradiol test which was at the very top range of the scale almost ready to leave the scale. My estradiol was 42. I did an Estrone blood test which came back low according to the current scale. Estrone blood levels were 54. The scale is between 0 and 174. I know they use prolactin as a good way of measuring total estrogen load. But it's low so I'm confused. One thing that does concern me is my TSH is in the 7. My t4 is almost in the top 50% but my t3 is in the lower 25%. I was surprised that my DHEA levels were in the middle of the scale 233ug/dl.
I just did another blood test for pregnenolone, progesterone, DHT and reverse t3. I wonder if I should check my LH hormone?
I definitely have the pear-shaped body of a 45-year-old man that has low testosterone. Haircut talks about the body shape a lot as we get older. Usually indicates a cortisol or estrogen problem. I have difficulty getting rid of love handles and belly fat. I have a lot of difficulty building muscle and gaining strength. Strength is a big one that I can't seem to get.
It's very frustrating to figure out what's going on with my rat. I've tried all sorts of diets, did genetic testing and even tried fasting. I did lose a substantial amount of weight fasting than I read it back really quick just like haduit has mentioned in many of his threads. And in fact I looked sick not healthy when I lost all that weight. Any helpful advice would be very welcomed.
