u on a different scale? did you have other hormones checked? also, what

symptoms of high Estrogen were you experiencing?

Thanks

Well I have been getting real hard in the morning now since taking the

prometrium the last 3 nights so my E2 must be coming down using that.

So for now I will just use the Prometrium since it seems to be

working. Also the aches in my muscles and joints have gone away and I

am not fatigued all day either, so the progesterone is doing the trick

:-) I will add the zinc/copper though as this should only help.

So you are on TRT as well? As for muscle achiness....i feel as my legs and

knees are always aching...rest of body aches during sleep and in the morning

(not from oversleeping either). don't have the nose bleeds. My E2 comes back at

18...but i'm not sure they're doing it right as the month prior it was 34...i

hadn't taken anything in between.

That's great that you're feeling so much better! As for getting E2 under

50.....why be concerned? Make sure the symptoms continue to subside and you

should be fine. If they reappear than follow up with blood work. Just a

thought. Don't get caught up with numbers when you're feeling great.

50mg shots on Monday and Thursday. Since taking the Prometrium pill

(100mg) starting Friday night I feel so much better. I have been

taking one every night so far and the symptoms have already started to

subside.

I want to get my E2 under 50 so I will go get some bloodwork again in

a month, but so far so good, feeling wise anyhow.

I am not sure using Prometrium is a good Idea for men to lower E2. And did your

Dr. do a Ultra Sensitive test for men on your E2 can you put the test results on

here with the range. My Dr. has me on HCG and tests my Progesterone levels to

make sure the HCG is not driving it up to high. To keep my E2 down I use and

most men use Arimidex. Here is a link on Prometrium in men.

I just read that 20 mgs. is a safer dose. I never heard of Arimidex doing this

many guys on TRT doing Arimidex are getting there wifes pregnant at this site.

http://forum.mesomorphosis.com/forumdisplay.php?s= & daysprune= & f=9

And there is also Indolplex/DIM that is an OTC supplement you can try that

converts bad E2 into good E's so the body can get rid of them easier plus if you

take TMG with it it helps the liver wash out the E's faster. You can add

Zinc/Copper also this is good for the testis and helps keep E2 down.

http://www.ritecare.com/prodsheets/PHY-15336.html

http://www.myvitanet.com/tmgtr75120ca.html

All men are low on Zinc because the meat we eat are corn feed and we don't get

enough Zinc in are modern fast food diet.

http://www.myvitanet.com/zincop100cnt.html

Here is a link about DIM.

I would hate to see you grow breast's.

also thinking of sending me to an endocrinologist to see what they

thought.

Anyway I feel SO much better since taking the prometrium, it's

amazing. He told me that there weren't really any risks with taking

progesterone.

I just read that article it seems that the studies support that it

battles E2 but that it puts your liver on overdrive. I personally take

100mg not the 200mg one they state in that article. I also do not need

to take it everyday. I can also puncture a hole in the capsule if I

want and rub it on my skin, that would take away the liver effect.

I do not have the exact tests in front of me I just know my levels

were at 150 I will go back and have them tested in 1 month. Apparently

My liver test came back good.

Im waiting for blood work to come back (for E2, Total Estrogen, and

progesterone). i've read that natural progesterone cream is effective as

well...and is sold OTC. i almost want to start taking it now but i'm gonna wait

for the lab results.

other than symptoms...anything else? weight gain...or stomach fat that is

impossible to lose while rest of body is in great shape? any gynecomastia? i

have slight gynecomastia per my endo...probably due to the propecia i was taking

for 6 years. im hoping it'll reverse naturally when my hormonal system gets

treated. i know gyne is not reversable...but i don't have breast tissue...more

fat deposit. we'll see.

thanks for your replies.

you said you can go a week without it? i thought you just started taking it 4

days ago??

franktjo <no_reply > wrote:

As far as the gyno I already have it so not concerned about that issue

at this point I guess. And like I said it seems to kick in fast so its

not something I need to take continously. I can tell when I start

feeling bad, then I just pop one in at bedtime. I can go sometimes a

week at a time without taking it.

It's funny I workout alot and also notice I get better pumps in the

gym and my muscle hardness is greater since taking the prometrium.

got into a routine with it. I stopped taking it for some reason, which

other than symptoms...anything else? weight gain...or stomach fat that is

impossible to lose while rest of body is in great shape? any gynecomastia? i

have slight gynecomastia per my endo...probably due to the propecia i was taking

for 6 years. im hoping it'll reverse naturally when my hormonal system gets

treated. i know gyne is not reversable...but i don't have breast tissue...more

fat deposit. we'll see.

thanks for your replies.

I see. so when u started taking it...did u notice any weight loss in the

stomach area?...working out of course. u mentioned steroid abuse...is that what

caused ur gyne? any way it'll be reversed or ur gonna need surgery? mine is

slight...when standing not so obvious...but sitting down it is. same with

gut..standing is ok..sitting down stomach protues out like none other.

thanks

franktjo <no_reply > wrote:

Yes I did stop taking it because I felt better; like you say I felt

better for quite awhile and now it came back again, but I didn't make

the connection that it was the high E2 as to why I was feeling like

this again. As I was traveling alot and working out hard so just

thought it was because of that.

It does kick in fast once you take it, for me it does anyway.

prior to starting progesterone therapy...did you constantly feel bloated? i

feel as much of my weight is water weight as i always feel bloated. also, do

your fatty deposits feel hard? if so, than yes i hear surgery is the only way to

go. did you do any research on this novaldex (sp?) therapy to reverse gyne? it

was in a post earlier from phil.

let me know.

thanks

franktjo <no_reply > wrote:

Yes a little loss in gut area but mostly did it through exercise and

diet. Yes gyno was caused from steroid abuse. There are fatty deposits

under my nipples so I believe I will need surgery to get rid of them.

Estrogen, and progesterone). i've read that natural progesterone cream is

effective as well...and is sold OTC. i almost want to start taking it now but

i'm gonna wait for the lab results.

other than symptoms...anything else? weight gain...or stomach fat that is

impossible to lose while rest of body is in great shape? any gynecomastia? i

have slight gynecomastia per my endo...probably due to the propecia i was taking

for 6 years. im hoping it'll reverse naturally when my hormonal system gets

treated. i know gyne is not reversable...but i don't have breast tissue...more

fat deposit. we'll see.

thanks for your replies.

got my lab results back...progesterone is 0.4 ng/ml with male range of 0.3 - 1.2

ng/ml.

also Estrogen Serum Total is 143 pg/ml with a range of less than 130.

my E2 is 19

do you think your 150 reading was for total Estrogen and not Estradiol?

What's the difference between Estradiol readings and Total Estrogen?

Thanks Phil. Pretty interesting to say the least. In all your research, is

Total Estrogen lab work valueable in assesing excessive estrogen? I know you've

read that progesterone leads to gynecomostia. I've been explained (several of

times) that estrogen dominance leads to gynecomastia.

Jack both Dr. and Dr. Shippen are looking into problems men can possably

have with high Total Estrogen levels. A lot of men have good Estradiol but high

Total Estrogens and feel the sides of them. As for Progesterone one needs to be

careful what they are doing one just can't read crap like this and take it as

Gospel.

There is a lot of junk out here on the web and you need to take it all with a

garin of salt. Yes there is a need to add Progesterone to a mans treatment but

not just because he has high E's. The best way to keep E's down is a AL med

like Arimidex. But before mess with this get all of your hormones in balance

first. In most case's balancing you hormones bring every thing back to normal.

Thanks Phil. Pretty interesting to say the least. In all your research, is

Total Estrogen lab work valueable in assesing excessive estrogen? I know you've

read that progesterone leads to gynecomostia. I've been explained (several of

times) that estrogen dominance leads to gynecomastia.

also Estrogen Serum Total is 143 pg/ml with a range of less than 130.

my E2 is 19

do you think your 150 reading was for total Estrogen and not Estradiol?

What's the difference between Estradiol readings and Total Estrogen?

tjo

did you ever get readings taken for progesterone levels? did u find out about

the Estrogen reading of 150...was it total or E2?

thanks

This is interesting:

Many of the effects associated with normal aging can be attributed to

a progesterone deficiency, so progesterone replacement therapy may be

another missing link to solving the human aging process. The

beneficial effects of natural progesterone have now been shown in

women and men. Progesterone protects against many of the detrimental

changes of aging, and the only downside is that too much can make a

person feel sleepy or even euphoric. Please note that it usually takes

two to four weeks for topically applied progesterone to build up to

sufficient levels in the body to the point where there are noticeable

effects.

http://members.aol.com/profchm/rahman.html

This is also a great read:

http://www.drlam.com/A3R_brief_in_doc_format/progesterone.cfm

All men over age 40 should consider natural progesterone replacement

therapy, or even earlier if there is a history of prostate caner or

BPH. The amount needed is 10 mg a day, approximately half that used in

women. No rest day is needed and men should apply it on a daily basis.

I read somewhere that my 100mg capsule braks down to about 15-20mg

since it goes through the liver etc.
