Dr Will Powers’ own statements and theorizing
Mentions treatments or doses — not guidance
Summary (paraphrased)
Post body unavailable. From the title (truncated in the export), Powers published a document summarizing the laboratory findings he personally suspects are associated with PFS — evidently a promised deliverable consolidating his biomarker observations (the DUTCH patterns, 3α-androstanediol glucuronide anomalies, and related lab signatures discussed across this chunk). This likely represents the written precursor to the community data-collection effort noted in DWP-003 (morning hormone panel + androstanediol glucuronide blood test + DUTCH test). The document's contents could not be recovered.
Key points (paraphrased)
- Published a consolidated document of suspected PFS lab findings.
- A promised deliverable — suggests prior community discussion.
- Likely precursor to the standardized patient data-collection protocol.
- Contents unavailable — high-priority re-fetch target.
Why it’s in the corpus
Potentially the single most valuable missing item in this chunk: Powers' own consolidated lab-findings document, the empirical foundation of his biomarker program. Flagged as a high-priority re-fetch when the mirror is reachable.

A follow up to my earlier post:
As part of the First World Congress on PSSD, PFS, and PAS hosted by Corewell Health on April 24, 2026, I shared a set of personal, exploratory observations based on a small number of individuals who voluntarily shared de‑identified laboratory information with me.
I’ve put together a written summary for anyone who wants to review the patterns we discussed at the First World Congress.
This document is strictly informational and educational. It reflects my own observations and interpretations and is not medical advice, not diagnostic, not predictive, and not intended to guide treatment or clinical decision‑making. Full disclaimers are included in the document.

I’m happy to discuss general concepts here, but I can’t answer personal medical questions, interpret labs, or give individualized guidance in this forum. Please keep that in mind.
Thanks to everyone who has been contributing thoughtful questions and ideas. I am looking forward to seeing where this goes.

PS: Adding the labcorp "Androsterone" value to this for PSSD as well (it seems to show up absurdly commonly as either slightly to severely elevated in both male and female PSSD patients).
Some fields on this page come from the release’s Markdown edition, which carries text the JSON edition omits.
