Make sure the tests are

[Guest guest]

As you found out, make sure that the T tests are done first thing in the am. My

doctor

likes to do them 7-9 am and no later.

Also, make sure that the doctor orders the more sensitive E2 test. The less

sensitive tests

do not measure below 30, and 30 is too high for me. I feel best if I am in the

10-15

range.

HCG and HMG can be used for " testicle maitenance " to keep the family jewels

from

shrinking, and they also drive the testicles in secondary hypo men to make their

own T

and in the case of HMG the testicles will be driven to make their own sperm.

If the doctor you work with will not allow for cycles of HCG to maintain the

testicles, I

would consider looking for another doctor. Also, it is VITAL that the doctor

watch your

husbands E2 ratios. Keep them under twenty, and your husband will likely see a

drastic

increase in nocturnal and spontanious errections. I prefer to be lower-your

milage may

vary.

Sounds like you are being very supportive to your husband, and that is a great

commentary as to the person you are. It is pretty humiliating to be called

names by a

woman and degraded and mocked for having this condition, and I commend you for

for

seeking help in such a positive manner.

One positive note, if he can get this hormone situation tuned in and get a doc

who will put

him up at 800+(which is where most men see all the promised benefits) you will

have a

30 something year old husband with the hormones of a teenager--and that could

mean

some real benefits for both of you in the bedroom
