Thought I had Gyno so I stopped, did a hormone test and my Oestrogen is Low

[noquit27]

I did a male hormone blood test because I wanted to see if high estrogen was the cause of my gyno symptoms,
A little detail about what happened,
Took 1mg Daily for 2 months felt burning tingling pain on left side of chest and breast area/nipple, started freaking out (i have really bad anxiety about medical stuff), felt something hard and noticed my left breast was bigger (idk if its always been like that though, It could have been the exact same), felt a hard disk behind nipple which is still here and could have been there before. Honestly it was all just a mess, I was so anxious about it i was having panic attacks.

But I dont want to give up on it, its been almost a year since, and I thought Id try again but Id take a hormone test just to see if something was super off.
I cant really go to a doctor about this since my GP isnt really interested in helping and I cant afford private so I thought at the bare minimum id ask here so maybe someone who knows something can give some advice.
I was thinking to start again and take a lower dose this time, maybe 1mg 3x a week or less.
I put a pic of my results,
Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it alot.

Can you explain a little more bit by bit and I will try to help you figure this out or I will show you where on reddit that you might find answers?

This all took place roughly a year ago.
I started finasteride, felt no symptoms until 2 months of taking it, Had burning on my side and chest, pain around my nipple area, it was all mainly in the left side.
I stopped taking it.
Fast forward today, I wanted to see if it was possible for me to try taking finasteride again at a lower dosage, but I thought I would take a hormone test first, and my OEstrogen is very low, this was abnormal to me as High Oestrogen causes gynecomastia, so Im wondering if it would be a smart Idea to take it again knowing this, or should I stay away. Perhaps those symptoms I had were something else, or I overexaggerated.
Thanks

Dude, but you had the buring sensation thing a year ago ! It have none sense what you are telling. NOW you are estrogen are low normal, who knows how it was with finasteride a year ago ?! Will be higher for sure, plus Finasteride also lower Progesterone and progesterone inhibit aromatization . Plus DHT compete against Estrogen . Why you didn't checked your DHT ?

Sorry if something I said didnt make sense, I dont know alot and Im trying my best. I couldnt get DHT test because my doctor wont do it for me and privately is too expensive for me.
If im understanding you correct, you are saying even with low estrogen now, its still possible for finasteride to increase it so much so that i get gynecomastia?
I dont really know what I am asking, I feel very lost, I want to be able to take finasteride without these problems and was hoping lower dose could help.
