Hi,

Long story short , i'm 26y.o , competed in 2021 , ended with binge eating , then bulimia and for the last 7-8months i would say i have a good relationship with food. Since sept last year i was diagnosticated with hypo and i'm on T4. I was feeling extremely fatigued, could'nt loose weight even if i exercised a lot and maintaining a healthy diet, i checked with my endo the thyroid and it was the problem. I would'nt say that now i'm feeling perfect but at least a little bit better, and we are yet adjusting the T4, BUT!! my other hormones are really bad, my libido is very very low , i have mood swings very frequently , lately i have very bad water retention and feel bloated even if i eat healthy
I checked again all my hormones 2 months ago, the estrogens and FSH where a little low but my endo said that because they are in the normal ranges i should not be aware, even if i said to her that my sex drive is low

And i have no idea what to do, what supps can i take to ennhace my libido ? I tried several but there was no result

Thanks
 
I have found with my wife when her test level drops below 25-30 her sex drive drops into the gutter. We have found keeping her above 50 is a good spot where her sex drive is ok. Now as a side note she is 52 with all the menopause stuff going on and before she started taking anything her testosterone level was well in the gutter at 15.
 
Hmm, i think that my test levels are ok , the other hormones are low i think
Here are my last lab test , the yellow is where i was on my menstrual cycle phase and where we should look

@lora4ca welcome to elitefitness.com family we are happy to help you.

I looked at your hormones and yes many things are out of whack but the truth is that we can't say much until we know your full situation.

We need to see your diet, training, cardio, supplements, sleep schedule and your full LOG journal diary if you want us to truly guide you instead of giving you generic answers that wont help you change your life.

If you want us to really guide you, and we have 100s of years of experience between us, you need to post a LOG Journal with your stats (weight,height,age, years training, cycle history) diet, training, cardio, supplement, sleep details. If you don't log what you eat or train now, open NOTES on phone and start recording it there and paste here. Very easy.

Please post a Log Journal asap for us

Please click the womens forum
top RIGHT, you see: +POST THREAD
click that

in Title: write your cycle name, like> My _____ Cycle Log
___ = the name of your log
example: My Diet Training Log
in body: write your planned cycle or cycle you doing now, your diet, training and we will help you along on your cycle

here are examples of LOG Journals

P.S. are you listening to our podcast? if not, you should:

Thank you all for your responses and you're right , only by the results it is difficult to help so i'll start a log , now i;m not on a cycle
I'm 163cm and 56kg (5' 4"ft and 123lb 4oz) , i was eating barely 1000-1300cals and a lot of cardio almost every day
I increased my calories to 1700 from the weekend (aprox 140C 150P 60F) and will ad again strength training

I'll share a log with my program and the supps i'll take
@SteveMobsterG yes , but she said that my hormones are ok and only adjusted the t4

a lot of women go through the same issues as you are going through
however the difference is you are a type A personality where you want to fix the issue and are trying everything

my advice is don't be so quick to jump on this or that drug before really understanding what is wrong. the issue is certain hormones or drugs once you start using them can become necessary to function. and you don't want to be one of those people on 10 drugs and hormones for life

sounds like you high on estrogen

At first i thought so , but from the lab results my estrogens are low , i think that it may be from the very very low calorie intake and excessive cardio and my body is fighting it , i increased my calories from this weekend so i'll see how it goes

log I just shared my log

A very low calorie diet will really mess with your hormones and just your body in general. I would fully focus on putting together a proper diet first and seeing if that can help level things out.
