Guest guest Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Yes you body is adjusting to the high levels of T and your still dam low you need to get your levels up into the upper 1/3 of your labs range and to keep your Estradiol levels down to about 20 pg/ml do you get any night or morning wood if not then the DIM is not working what kind are you using some of the junk sold out there is just that junk. Here is what works if your on this then it's not working and you need to test your Estradiol levels and if high over 30 pg/ml go on Arimidex. This brand has Indolplex in it and works great starting dose is 120 mgs. http://www.iherb.com/Enzymatic-Therapy-Pure-Rip-with-DIM-60-Tablets/12814?at=0 Co-Moderator Phil > From: gviceman77@... <gviceman77@...> > Subject: DIM / Androlgel / and Night Sweats > , gviceman77@... > Date: Friday, January 15, 2010, 11:17 AM > > I have been having Night Sweats for about 2 years. > > I have been taking DIM 200 mg daily for about a year.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I am takining DIM Complex by Metabolic Maintenance. This product was recommended by Suzane Cohen author of the 24-Hour Pharmaist. It converts easily to Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C). My labs are all good. But I have not yet had my Estradiol tested. I do have morning wood and I am able to perform; I just lack the mental disire most of the time. What does it mean to have my levels in the upper 1/3. My testostorone was 366 up from (238) my free testostorone is 126.3, and my percent is 3.45 which is in the high range. I stopped having the night sweats and now I have had them for the last 2 nights and that is the same amount of days that i have increased my androgel dosage to 5 pumps. (was 4 pumps). Can you please give further clarification. I see my ENO dr next week. thank you for all of your help and insight.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 My labs range for Total T is 1100 I keep my levels at 800 to 900 men with your levels get put on TRT here read this link it talks about this in it. http://www.griffinmedical.com/male_hormone_modulation_therapy.html If you have wood just keep your levels so you have it in time your libido will come back up as you get your Testosterone levels higher it's when your leveled off good that your body starts to undo the problems from having low T.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 another option to dim is iodoral at 25-50 mgs a day. It pretty much does the same thing with less stress to the liver. > > > From: gviceman77@... <gviceman77@...> > > Subject: DIM / Androlgel / and Night Sweats > > , gviceman77@... > > Date: Friday, January 15, 2010, 11:17 AM > > > > I have been having Night Sweats for about 2 years. > > > > I have been taking DIM 200 mg daily for about a year.
