Greetings everyone!
I am sorry that my first post is a cry for help.
So I’ve talk to my doctor and I’m still mixed up over my blood test results.
Ok, forgive me for I do not have the exact numbers I am waiting for my copy of my last blood work.My estrogen is at the very high side of normal.
Total test has jumped up but still a little on the low side – not really my main concern currently.
Free test is at the high side of normal.
But, my SHBG is very low. I believe it’s at the low side of normalDue to bloating and feeling very uncomfortable in my low ab I am going to start Adex .25mg every other day. :confused:
I am confused why my SHBG would be so low and won’t it go lower with the addition of Adex?
Yes, at one time I had type II but lost a lot of body fat and have since regained some but I am told that my blood glucose levels are good.Hope I made sense and if need be I’ll post my numbers when I get them.
Thanks
You really don’t want to take Arimidex if your estradiol is normal. Arimidex is a powerful drug, and you will likely tank your estradiol levels and feel terrible. If you suspect high E2, try DIM first (Nature Way and Estrobalance are two good brands). DIM, although natural, is also strong stuff so again be careful and dose properly to ensure you don’t go too low. If that doesn’t work, there is a natural supplement called Myomin that might work well.
I believe insulin is the main cause of low SHBG. Also look into high dhea. If your SHBG is very low like you say, your doctor really should pay attention. I believe Marianco has written that a very low SHBG is always an indicator of a pre-diabetic state.
