Hello Forum,
Thank you very much for providing the right direction to look for finding what is going wrong in my body. I had the recommended blood tests done from this post, done at Quest.

Again, here are my main symptoms.
* Zero Libido/Sex Drive
* Bad Erectile Dysfunction even when using max doses of Cialis or Levitra
* Loss of Morning / Spontaneous / Nocturnal Erections
* Penile Tissue Changes (narrowing, shrinkage, curving, numbness, wrinkled)
* Penis Feels "disconnected" from head or body
****Complete loss of pleasure during Orgasm, this is new during last month. I know oxytocin is created by the pituitary, so I'm wondering is something is damaged there? I literally have no sensation during sex/masturbation, a slight sensation at approach of orgasm, and then nothing when there used to be a massive euphoric rush and tingly sensation thoughout my body. This is worrying me the most now.

I know its a lot to look at, but I really appreciate anyone's help. I'll post the DHT and free estradiol tomorrow when I get it, but until then, please let me know what you think the most likely cause of these symptoms are. Urologists up to this point offer nothing but cialis, which barely works. Within the last month, the ejaculatory anhedonia is really scary! Is the low FSH with the high estradiol ultrasensitive enough to warrant an MRI for a brain tumor? How can I bring the Estradiol down naturally? Is my LH really "normal", and what causes FSH to be low? My old testosterone and thyroid results were done in June, so if you reference them, thats the date. Thanks again.
