Natty - 1100 total test High Prolactin

[NoDiceBaby]

My total test is pretty damn high (1100) as well as my SHBG, Prolactin, and cholesterol.

I’m completely natural and I’ve never fucked with PED’s before. I used to be really diligent about supplements however nowadays I only take Creatine, fish oil, and some vitamin d and NAC on occasion.

I haven’t had a hormone panel in years (or ever I think) so I have nothing to compare this to. I have a varicocele on my left testicle that I’ve had since I was a kid. doctors always said it was fine and normal but to keep an eye on it. I did have some concerns throughout the years but I feel normal-ish enough for it not to have been a huge worry, Chicks dig big nuts anyways right? I do wake up tired as shit and have decently low motivation but I mostly chalk that up to being lazy.

I was completely fasted for the bloodwork, didn’t jerk off or bust a nut for like a week leading up to it, or have a super strenuous workout for a few days.

I definitely have a really hard time having an orgasm, would this caused by the prolactin or low free test?

My free test is low which makes sense since my Shbg is sky high, but my prolactin is super high as well.

Any insights on these results? Is this alarm enough to be worried about a pituitary tumor? Diet related?

Thanks bros

Hmmm usually if your below a 20ng/dl your fine. You take any antidepressants or antipsychotics?

Your thyroid seems ok but a more comprehensive panel would be nice. A really underactive thyroid could cause high prolactin. Another reason could be kidney function. But if it’s not any of these then it could be a tumor. Most tumors will have your prolactin 100+ ng/dl. I would talk to a doctor at this point.

Prolactin is seldom high from a single blood draw. The body actually releases it when your veins get punctured as a stress response. You need multiple blood draws before getting concerned about this. Also, as the poster above noted, tumors have much higher prolactin.

Your sex drive is low because of, as you guessed it, free low test. It's also why your TT is soo high.

Your tsh is also too high.

Ask for a referral to an endocrinologist. Your general won't know shit about this.
