ok so this is weird here are my results including the most recent one
08 aug 2017
testosterone 213.60 ng/dL
19 sep 2017
testosterone 222.20 ng/dL
estrogen 118
prolactin 15.3
estradiol 17.2 pg/mL
30 nov 2017
estrogen 48
prolactin 20.3
02 feb 2018
testosterone 341.40
estrogen 131
prolactin 32.7
why is my estrogen and prolactin and tesosterone all seemingly going up?
says normal range for test is 193-836, normal for estrogen is 40-115, normal for prolactin is 4.0-15.2
so my prolactin is double amount and my estrogen is going higher and higher out of normal
at least my testosterone seems to be normalizing but what does this mean?
i have a lot of other results but everything else was all within normal parameters

Past 3 weeks I have started taking Cabergoline every tuesday/saturday
first two weeks I was on .25 mg doses
this week I was on .50 mg doses
it has completely cured my numbness, increased bloodflow, and increased libido
the major downside effect is I am often very tired but I ever feel like emotional blunting is better tbh I feel more alive than I have in the past year

over the weekend I felt like it was starting to fade slowly. still better than pre-cabergoline baseline but not as cured as it was
today though I am feeling better again, sort of in between
numbness stil gone, libido still higher than pre-cabergoline but not as high as the first couple weeks
over the weekend I feel like I was having trouble staying asleep after 3-4 hours
I think I have mild restless leg syndrome and I had no idea this is what it was called but it reminds me of when I first started getting PSSD symptoms. I believe I didn't know at the time but when I first got PSSD symptoms about a year ago, the first few months my earliest symptoms now can only be described as a sort of mild restless leg syndrome where i would wake up hours before i needed to and lay there trying to fall asleep and rubbing/moving my legs around restlessly
for this reason I am continuing the cabergoline because it seems to be helping but I also ordered some pramipexole so if it stops working i will switch to that
only thing that worried me was like 4 days ago my nipples were kinda sort, mostly the right one, which shouldnt happen if im on cabergoline that LOWERS prolactin right? but it hasnt been a problem much maybe it was just my shirt that i ran at the gym with irritated them with the sweat

Hey @buffkin14, how are your erections going with this?
I stopped getting the night erections and morning wood again for the most part it seems
but when I get one during the day it feels better and harder
so I guess better than pre-cabergoline baseline but not as good as it was the first two weeks I was on cabergoline

You have to lower your Stress level. None of these things are going to create a permanent cure. So while understandable you are "upset" - it is also reasonable to lift weights, practice Meditation, perhaps buy something like Relora to keep Cortisol/Stress down.

Typically as time goes by, your hypothalamus starts trying to get back to normal. SSRI's semi-permanently alter corticosteroid synthesis and Estradiol, as mentioned in my article below.
If Testosterone goes up, Estrogen goes up.
If Estrogen goes up, Prolactin goes up.
That's why "negative feedback" is 98% controlling the E2 level, as it puts brakes on the whole cycle of 'bad hormone' buildup.

Indirectly it will, because Cortisol regulates Aromatase. That's why so many investigational drugs for Cortisol are being discussed by bodybuilders and on forums. Besides the Progesterone antagonists...

Hi buffkin14,
I had the same experience as you with histidine as I detail it in my post:
L-histidine temporary recovery
But it does not work anymore.
Do you still take l-histidine? And how to make sure the effect stays?
