Hello everyone. I got some bloods doen to investigate my current symptoms which I will detail further down the post.
Bloods:
Albumin 44.1 g/L (Range: 35 - 50)
SHBG 26 nmol/L (Range: 18.3 - 54.1)
FSH 1.51 IU/L (Range: 1.5 - 12.4)
LH 4.3 IU/L (Range: 1.7 - 8.6)
Oestradiol 117 pmol/L (Range: 41 - 159)
Testosterone 13.8 nmol/L (Range: 8.64 - 29)
Free Testosterone - Calc. 0.317 nmol/L (Range: 0.2 - 0.62)
Free Androgen Index 53.08 Ratio (Range: 24 - 104)
Prolactin 197 mU/L (Range: 86 - 324)
DHEA Sulphate 7.020 umol/L (Range: 5.73 - 13.4)
Progesterone 0.325 nmol/L (Range: 0.64 - 4.7)
TSH 1.83 mIU/L (Range: 0.27 - 4.2)
Free T3 6.09 pmol/L (Range: 3.1 - 6.8)
Free Thyroxine 15.500 pmol/L (Range: 12 - 22)
Symptoms:
Rapid hair loss, eyebrow thinning, cold extremeties, slow heart rate, zero libido, zero appetite and major digestive issues.
I'm not really sure how to proceed based upon these bloods. Testostosterone is lowish, progesterone is extremely low and thyroid looks relativly okay. My diet and lifestyle is already 'Peat' based; high calorie, high carb, zero pufa, micronutrient focused eating.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm considering supplementing progesterone to get it up, though progesterone deficiency alone doesn't really explain my issues. Thanks.
