500% testosterone increase with this one simple trick
-
Hello
I would like to share something interesting.
11/2024 -> 01/2026
testosterone 150ng/dL -> 695 ng/dL (460%)
All bloods:Cholesterol 3.7 -> 3.9 mmol/L
Prolactin 6.3 -> 14 ng/mL (222%)
TSH 1.39 -> 1.09 mU/L (-20%)
fT3 6.1pmol/L ->?
fT4 15.7pmol/L ->?
Vit D 96 -> 348.7 nmol/L (took ~50k IU weekly)
TriG 0.6 -> 0.6 mmol/L
Estradiol ? -> <88.0 pmol/L (T:E ratio of >29:1)Took bloods November of 2024 suspecting low T and thyroid problems, extreme brain fog, depression, flabby etc. Turns out I had 150 ng/dl T, mind you I was 20 at the time.
Got my hands on exemestane really quickly and started taking that, got extreme carpal tunnel from 12mg so I dosed down to about 5mg biweekly. Took that really lackluster, sometimes skipped a week, still, I was slowly feeling better, body composition also improved.
I was also on 20k vit D and 50mg K2 weekly. Stopped those for now.Only thing that stayed was brain fog, the recent bloods also shows a doubling of prolactin, apparently it can be a compensation for the low estrogen? Am I a gooner?
Extermely low estrogen, as well as high prolactin can cause brain fog. Prolactin can surpress thyroid and reduce dopamine. I am interested in trying thyroid (waking temps around 36.2C, rises to 37 during the day) or something to lower prolactin / increase dopamine.Based on the low cholesterol. My personal doctor (Claude) has suggested pregnenolone, I got the bottom of the barrel swanson stuff and am now taking 200mg daily. So far no effect, I'll stop when I grow boobs.
Apparently pregnenolone has a horseshoe effect so a lower dose can be highly effective?
Claude also thinks the low triglycerides are a sign of stress, undereating and fat reserves depleting.I'm also experiencing some hair shedding, I do not know if the cause is androgenic, the mega vitamin D calcifying my scalp, prolactin related or estrogen deficiency.
For now:
Weekly 6mg exemestane, daily 200mg preg, low fat diet, all fat cholesterol rich/coconut, carrot salad/mushroom, occasional K2 n aspirin, taking eggshell powder, 50g gelatin.I will update this if anything happens.

@PissBoy prolactin can cause hair loss, have you considered something like lisuride? high prolactin can come from low dopamine or high serotonin, and there is a lot that could lead to that, leading to one of many hormonal doom loops where high prolactin makes the dopamine/serotonin worse.
