Guest guest Posted February 22, 2000 Report Share Posted February 22, 2000 Dear Dr. Maher, I'm a little confused. I know it's a good increase, but still well below the normal range of 241-827. I am a very fit 48 year old man, but lately, I've been suffering from a loss of energy, I'm guessing as a result of low t. Low t. has never been a problem of mine in the past so I'm concerned something I am taking is affecting my bodies production. Thanks kindly for your reply and I will look at the product you recommend. Take care Dale R. Hersh "Dr. H. Maher" wrote: Dale, Though you use different labs a T from 20 to 117 is quite good! I suggest you use saliva, as FREE testosterone is what counts, Plus it is cheaper and easier to use the same time each day.. I would wait a week and test DHEA, testosterone, estradiol and androstene at 8:30 AM. Then I would suggest you try AndroEdge. Apply one pump to different areas of the skin around 7 AM and just before sleep to mimic the circadial rhythm.( Rest 5 days between bottles.) After one week retest the above four hormones 90 minutes after applying, about 8:30 AM, as the peak is short lived DHEA needs to be taken in 200 to 400 mg doses in men over 50 to raise testosterone. Under 40 probably raises estrogen as much or more. Consider zinc supplementsation as well. Post the results and CC to me. Dr. H. Maher, A.B.A.A.H.P..

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2000 Report Share Posted February 22, 2000 Dr. Maher, Sorry, but one more question: Who do you recommend for saliva testing? Dale "Dr. H.

Do you happen to know how many milligrams of prohormones are contained in one pump full of AndroEdge? I looked on your site but could only find the names of the ingredients with no quantities. Thanks. -gts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Following my letter to my Doc I got excited when a letter came through my door to go in for a blood test. I was rather dissapointed when i arrived to be told i would only get the Free T4 and TSH test but at least I thought thats a start. Anyway my results came in and I am feeling a little more dissapointed as I was convinced the test would come back worse than my last two. Results are Free T4 15.6 and TSH 1.94 Maybe I am not Hypothyroid after all, could it just be Adrenal fatigue?? Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
