“How is your testosterone level?” “Gee thanks for asking.” As a matter of fact, my levels have doubled in the last 8 weeks without the need for T supplements. You ask what I did to get this magical result. I lifted heavy, stopped drinking, fasted daily, took supplements prescribed by my doctor of functional medicine and ate well.
I am very interested in what my damaged pituitary gland is reacting to. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Disease two years ago and started taking Levothyroxine immediately. Is it possible that the right exercise and supplements might have overcame the deficit in my growth hormones also. Do we know of studies that explore this possibility?
Sorry for the research dump. I am still putting a executive summary together for a blog but here are the articles and videos am looking at what I have found is that when you smash your head your Pituitary Gland gets damaged in the same way as your brain. This often inhibits your growth hormone and over time other hormone production essential for normal functions are also affected. I am putting together recommended treatments and their effects. Stay tuned.
