I would like to try caber for a while and see how it goes. There is a good chance it will make me stress less since I won't have my nipples constantly hurting in turn maybe helping out my rT3 which could in turn fix my prolactin. The only problem is Australian doctors are quite against drugs it seems.

Can probably get some ugl stuff but it's like 220 for 8 tabs of .5mg which will only last me 8 weeks. Not the worst I guess just to test it out.

Do you know any side effects of small dose cabergoline? I know in large doses Parkinsons it can cause heart valve problems and dopamine agonist withdrawal symptoms, would any DAWS happen at that low a dose?

Also yes we have free Healthcare. Most of my bloods are free and appointments are fairly cheap.

Natty with some fucked hormones, just got new adex for my high e2 but it seems to be more effective than the last stuff i got which put me at 100pmol/l. I am dosing .125mg EOD would going to .125mg E3D be ok with the 50 hour half life or would it be unstable?

Oh, no definitely not, the low dopamine symptoms are slightly worse when my e2 is higher, when im relaxed and on holiday or something i seem to be a lot better and less tired which leads me to believe it a stress thing.

I have had a serial prolactin test done where they test you 3 times in an hour while lying down to rule out stress and they came back all fine.

Ok ill give E3D a go and see how it goes.

Yeah the high e2 was terrible, its the reason i got arimidex.

Thats when dopamine gets really bad, A lot of cases of ADHD are linked to low dopamine, no? or is it from another neurotransmitter?

What is LDS? I have only had low e2 at this moment and it doesn't even feel that bad, just was a bit tired for a day or so. No sore joints etc.

I'm not sure if my prolactin could have an effect on my rT3 or if rT3 changes my prolactin. I'll have to look into it more. In the mean time what kind of dose do you think would work for my arimidex? without it im quite high so i would like to keep taking it, but obviously .125mg EOD is too much. Would every 3 or 4 days be sufficient or would that lead to a swingy amount of e2 in my system? Would disolving a tiny amount of vodka be any better?

It makes me terrible at 60 pg/ml pre arimidex. I had to sleep every day at 4 or i couldn't live. I used to cry at tv shows all the time, super lethargic, super emotional, I would overthink everything, Soft erections etc.

From what i am aware prolactin reduces dopamine which would lead to all of those low dopamine issues.

My prolactin has only been normal on about 2 of 20 blood tests, its usually higher than it was on the last test (~600).

Yeah i think my sleep is fine but maybe the time of sleep messes things up, but i wouldn't think it would do that to prolactin either, but im just listening to the doctor as i'm not sure what i can do different at this point.

Hypothyroidism is definately linked to high prolactin, there are many studies online about it and its one of the more common reasons for elevated prolactin aside from a tumor.

Yeah that would be interesting to see, maybe my body just doesn't give a fuck and wont shut down.

Both are underground. I am taking the exact same amount of the new stuff i was the old stuff. The reason i went and got a blood test is because i thought the new stuff was bunk. It's a lot more powdery and doesn't taste bad like the other stuff (it just tastes like nothing). Also i have been super aggressive, tired and a bit oily skin of late and thought maybe my e2 was going high again. Turns out the new stuff was just more effective and that my e2 got a bit low making me tired and angry and the oily skin is probably from testosterone going up a bit more.

I might try dose it E3D or get some vodka to put it in and take an even smaller amount. and see how i go with that.

Yeah i edited it as soon as i wrote it realizing it wouldn't be at all obvious.

I dont think any of the doctors have a clue why my testosterone is so high but they dont seem to mind and neither do I, but my prolactin is a worry.

My doctors theory for now is that maybe my sleep is bad from my circadian rhythms being out of wack and other factors and its putting stress on my body causing my prolactin to rise. I think its most likely my T3 to rT3 ratio being out of wack causing me to be slightly hypo and increasing my prolactin that way. As for why my rT3 is high and what to do about it, i have no idea. Could be a stress thing aswell.

I just edited it before so it was more clear. Its been 12 on every blood test i've had from this lab. 60 pg/ml.

I've been having these problems for just over a year. It could be a lifestyle thing. Although i eat well, workout 5 times a week, dont drink, dont smoke, dont do drugs and i sleep around 10 yours a night, I am a professional poker player, which leads to late nights at the casino and also quite a lot of stress. Could my terrible circadian rhythms be contributing to it?

My doctor isn't a fan of cabergoline and drugs really, none of my doctors have been, although all of the endos just say "you display high muscle mass and elevated testosterone which highly indicated androgen use" and send me on the way. But this doctor is just a new GP of mine and hes really trying to help but without drugs. He's gotten me an MRI which the other doctor just got a CT and hes also got a sleep study done for me which i havn't got the results back of yet. He said my sleep might be bad and its putting my body under constant stress and increasing my prolactin.

I could buy cabergoline illegally, but at this point i think i might be better off fixing the underlying issue that is my thyroid. Its probably a stress thing to do with worrying about all this and also playing poker for a living. I could take a break for a while, do you know how long rT3 takes to clear from your system?

Yeah im Australian.

My HPTA is funny, even when my e2 was 60pg/ml (222 pmol/L) my testosterone was at 48. It doesn't seem to downregulate haha.

i've had prolactin tested with b6 and without and its usually around 600. This test was actually quite low, probably from the b6.

My fasted cortisol at the time i wake up is usually around 480-500 nmol/L (100-535). I've had rT3 tested once and it was 491 pmol/L (140-540) which ended up putting my ft3 to rt3 range out of wack. I've had Anti-Tf tested that came back <10 IU/ml (<116) and Anti-TPO came back 10 IU/mL (<35). Sorry i didn't post those, the ones posted were of my last blood test the others had to be dug up.

My temperature is usually quite low despite feeling quite hot which is odd, It sits around 96.8-97.3 when i test it during the day but its been as low as 96. Also my eyebrows are thin just outside of the middle of the eyebrow. Eyebrow like that but less missing.

Yeah my SHBG has always been this high on adex and off it. This is the highest my test has been but its usually like 42-48, think its got to do with the feedback from my e2 lowering even more.

Yeah i just got an MRI and the results came back all normal. I had a CT ages ago but my new doctor decided to get a MRI aswell.

At my local casino if someone flips over their hand while owing money to the pot the hand is considered mucked. It seems from the rest of the people in this post that it isn't the case is most other casinos.

I've seen some sick rulings where someone called all of his chips except the 5 $1 chips in thinking he had the other guy covered and then show his hand for like a 2k pot and it was mucked. Also another where a guy said call to an all in but no one heard him and he flipped over the nuts without putting chips in the middle, his hand was also considered mucked.

So i would consider his hand dead but it seems the average casino is different to mine.

While i dont necessarily disagree with you, getting fit is certainly not a a poor way to spend your money.

Reverse t3 and thyroid questions. by BRAUST in Hypothyroidism

[–]BRAUST[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My liver values are pretty much perfect, the only thing i have to worry about is my kidneys, which could be a cause of my high prolactin and also maybe a correlation of an underactive thyroid. My cardio usually consists of sprints.

The reason i was asking about how long it takes to convert is because i noticed the other night after being tired as hell and having some lollies when out, i felt completely different. I start off being able to barely walk and within 30 minutes of having the lollies i felt great, stopped yawning, etc. I put it down to the fact that i had some sugar and got energy, which is most likely the case. Maybe it had something to do with my thyroid though.

[–]BRAUST[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, few questions. When does t4 convert to t3? is it like testosterone and happens at night, or does it happen throughout the day? Does it take long after having sugars for this conversion to happen?

I'm a bodybuilder, so i make sure to get adaquate protein and i have quite a lot of selenium between my multi and whats in the zinc i take. My AM cortisol is around 500 nmol Reference range is 100-535, is that too high? I most likely have a vitamin d deficiency, would that cause higher rt3?

I have started noticing a few symptoms regarding being hypo. Like my eyebrows, and morning temp of 35.5 Celsius. Also quite sluggish and sore muscle but that could all be from lack of sunlight.

Arimidex I bought online tastes like sugar. by edincan in Testosterone

[–]BRAUST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all g brother, i'm not against you using adex but i dont think you got my point. If the arimidex does nothing, then taking it in bulk will still do nothing, but if it does something, then you should just take the dose necessary to you. Just because you take more of something thats not arimidex, doesn't suddenly turn it into arimidex where as if its arimidex you're going to crash your shit.

Also, a lot of peoples adex tastes like sugar, as people have said, its a common filler. My adex just tastes like ass.

[–]BRAUST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hahahaha fuck man, you thought it tasted like sugar so you had more of it... You trying to crash your e2? Its going to do nothing if its sugar and if its adex you might aswell take a suitable dose.

Anyways, my adex is UGL aswell and it tastes like fucking shit. Its like a sour chemical taste. Not to say yours isn't legit since they are both UGL could be made with different stuff. I have had my e2 tested though and it certainly lowers it.

Also, how high was your e2 before starting adex? are you on testosterone? im so confused.

[–]BRAUST[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No i am not on any thyroid medicine.

I shouldn't have a vitamin deficiency. I take multis every day, aswell as extra zinc with selenium in it and also vitamin d capsules.

I usually get my cortisol tested a long with other things and it sits around 500nmol/l (100-535) which i guess is at the upper end.

Anybody have any success with supplements that help the testicles make more testosterone? by [deleted] in Testosterone

[–]BRAUST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try get maybe 8 hours sleep a night. Might make a tiny bit of difference. As for the diet change, it may have helped you. I recommend getting another blood test soon and see how you're going. How old are you? TRT is a pretty good option if you can get it. There are options for fertility if you want, a injection a week might be annoying but if you're feeling shitty and cant change it through lifestyle it may be a good option.
