I have had every blood test under the sun but never knew to get my harmones checked, so I did.
My Thyroid Profil, Cortisol, and other harmones were all good based off what you recommend to get checked.
My Pregnenolone, 21 was low. Range was 23-273.
My Testosterone was in range 168 Range 160-726
but on the low side. I am 39 years old.
I am on lyrica 225mg going up to 300mg in next week.
What advise wdo you have for me?
