Were those tests done while on the pill? It seems as though your estrogen is really low? I would look into that. My t is on the normal high side, but its my free testosterone that is almost non-existent. I heard when you have low free t and use spiro and or birth control pills, it can lower it even more and cause havoc. I also read that if bcp is causing depression, to take a vitamin b complex vitamin, because the pill depletes your vitamin b and causes depression. I hope this helps! My derm seems to think that I have an extreme case of seb derm, and thats whats causing my hair loss. I now have an appointment at the University of Michigan Dermatology center to see some top professors to help me calm my situation down. Best of luck to us both!!
