Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and its role in sexual health

[mpb47]

Your doctor put you on testosterone and it fixed you? Or DHT?

Yes he has me on T but increasing T increases DHT at the same time. Also I am on the trans dermal type which i am told is far worse for causing extra DHT.

The T boards say you want some DHT but not too much .

Not sure how old you are but young or old you should wait and see if you recover on your own as it's a life long thing. There is one T board that has some great info on Fin sides and they talk about restoring via thyroid medication. They talked about some of the weird sides and explained why and it made sense. The back of my hands got all weird looking and they explained it was some kind of female hormone imbalance. After thinking about it hit home as the back of my hands looked like the hands of a middle aged woman where the skin drys up and looks aged/cracked. Almost all of what they said is way over my head but I was just glad someone is started to figure it all out. They also hit another one close to home by saying that drinking grapefruit juice makes things worse for sides. At the time I got sides, I was exercising almost every night and drinking lots of grapefruit juice-I was basically addicted to the stuff.

Anyway, I would not rush into anything as you might recover on your own. I did recover somewhat on my own but it took time...

Here is the part where it mentioned the changes I saw to the back of my hands-which thankful turned back into normal hands when I started to get some initial recovery..

The FIN specific part is in another sticky in the same t-replacement forum
Basically he says a few men have very severe sides and he thinks it is specific to your DNA-or at least I think that is what he said.

I have only been on this site a few days but it appears to have some good info though you really have to search to find it. The search engine is not as good as the one on this board, but when you have time to kill give it a try.
