Not that bad. You just need to lower your estradiol and everything will be ok
im happy that my dht is very low tbh
4 ng dl is good i would like it to be 0 and never spike again…
why it lowered since last blood test? cause of the drop of cpa or of the sky high e2 levels??

Usually tends to lower the more you are on hrt, but trust me you dont want high e2 long term, things can go wrong at any moment

Ok, so my DHT is crazy, but I decided just to live with it atp.
Hard to tell why it is like that, because my ACTH, 17-OHP, Cortisol, Aldosterone, Androstenedione, 3a-diol are all near low reference and DHEA-S is somehow even lower than month ago. Also, I've no clue why prolactin didn't affect anything, as well as where it came from.
Overall, I feel good, my hair doesn't fall out, skin is good, bobs are sensitive, fat is redistributed well, all even considering very high SHBG. The only downsides are more sebum on scalp (especially on forehead) and hair is kinda coarse and less soft, which makes the texture a bit weird.
DHT, tho, is definitely there, but finding out what causes it is (IMO) not worth it for me atp. I guess it's either one of CAH variations, or sort of DHT inactivation issue like 3a-HSD deficiency, or its inhibition by bile acids. I honesly blame the bile acids, because noticing some short-lived scalp inflammation from time to time when my diet is too high on fats and hair getting worse too. Regardless, even if its CAH, I have no way of treating it, because my tolerance to corticosteroids is just no bueno. Gonna just reduce my E dose a lil bit and... well, just move on with my worthless DHT mutant life.
what do you mean by high fats?which are so i can avoid it thanks
