Just had my hormone levels checked in preparation for doctors visit on Wednesday. I'm not sure what to make of the E level. So thought I'd post about it here to see what others may think.
Estradiol <20pg/mL, which I take to mean under 20 pg/mL. Can't they measure under that level?
Total Testosterone 18 ng/dL
Free Testosterone 1.3 pg/dL
I had an orchi in Feb, so the T is where it should be. But the E baffles me. My dosage hasn't changed since I started in Oct '18.
First test later that month (Oct) was 167pg/mL (But I had taken my dose within a few hours of the blood draw, so I don't trust that number)
Second test was in Dec '18 was 42pg/mL
And then my third test, last week is <20 pg/mL
Anyone have any ideas? I'll be quizzing my Dr for sure.
Just to let everyone know my healing from the Orchi is going just fine. The site of the sutures are pink with just a hint of tenderness. It's got a little ways to go before I'll consider it done healing. But I'm liking it so far.
