After suffering from a bone bruise, I had to do a bunch of bloodwork for different things, so I decided to do a hormonal panel, these were the results:
Total Test: 3.44 ng/mL
Free Test: 28.00 pg/mL
SHBG: 9 nmol/L
FSH: 4.0 mIU/mL
LH: 3.9 mIU/mL
PRL: 10.0 ng/mL
E2: 9.0 pg/mL
ALB: 5.1 g/dL
Vitamin D-3: 33 ng/mL
Cortisol: 167 ng/mL
IGF-1: 255.8 ng/mL
DHT: 0.65 ng/mL
I'm 29 years old, 182cm and about 87kg at the moment. Before my injury I had been working out again regularly for about 5 months(before that I'd go through spurs of working out for a 6-8 months and stopping for a couple again). The reason I wanted to check my hormones is the fact I feel fatigued all day, even with high quality and quantity rest. I feel moody as well, I could get very emotional over trivial things. Also although I would be putting on more weight almost every week in the gym, in my every day life I would feel very weak doing tasks, like carrying stuff(not like overtraining, more so like I wasn't able to build meaningful muscle). I went to an endocrinologist a few days ago with these results and the doctor told me my values are alright, but especially my E2 looks awful to me personally. I want to run enclomiphene citrate for a few months because I'm thinking these values are perhaps pointing towards secondary hypogonadism and I don't want to hop on testosterone because I want to have kids in the near future. Thank you for your time, any advice from people in a similar predicament would be super appreciated.
