Guest guest Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Hi there, Thanks for replys. Cannot get any testing done at present as am traveling for a couple of months. I am going to supplement with 25mg of DHEA daily in the mean time. I read that high cortisol can cause testosterone defficiency (see below). " " Cortisol and testosterone deliver opposing messages to many of the same genes. Consequently, when cortisol levels are high, men with normal testosterone levels may have symptoms of testosterone deficiency because the elevated cortisol interferes with the testosterone message. This results in a functional deficiency; where the system has normal levels of testosterone, but functions as if there is not enough. " " Would the 40mg of cortisol i take daily cause this or would it be greater amounts of cortisol produced by stressed adrenals. I think my adrenals were a little stressed from a previously excessive armour dose. (3.75 grains) Thank you.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 >>I read that high cortisol can cause testosterone defficiency (see below).<< The key words here are " HIGH cortisol " if your HC dosing is correct it si not high, but just right. Several ways to know if it is correct is to mpnitor blood sugar in a fasting state. I check mine before moving in the morning thne in an hour or so after I am up to see what the Dawn Ruse is this si directly related to the AM cortiosl levels. Also any edema or highish BO would indicate too much HC unless there are other causes that you knwo of. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
