Hi, lately i ve been dealing with low libido and erectile problems.
My doct order some blood test.
I was wonderign if someone can help me understand them, i have appointment witht he endo in 10 days.
TSH 1.21 mU/L 0.25-350
FT4 21.70> pmol/L 10.30-19.40
FT3 5.41 pmol/L 3.50-6.40
FSH 3.53 U/L 1.7-11
LH 3.69 U/L 0.6-7.0
Prolactin 158 mU/l 72-288
Testosterone 23.3 mmoli/L 10.4-34.6
SHBG 30.00nmoli/L 6.4-37.5
what do you guys think?
Thanks
Testosterone 23.3 mmoli/L=~700ng/dL rather decent when natural
#1 do more testing, look at post #44 for ideas.

From what you provided;
your SHBG is high
but even now your
FreeT=165pg/mL also decent when natural
Something is increasing your SHBG
for now you can try supplements that decrease SHBG.
FT3 5.41 pmol/L 3.50-6.40
(6.4-5.41)/(6.4-3.5)=0.35
You are missing 35% on your thyroid.
Many are much worst off.
After you try everything else, try adding some Armour Thyroid to bring FreeT3 to top of range, to see if it make difference.
=============================================
Looking to muster more energy I did Genova
Metabolic Panel + Cellular energy profile
Results are in and I am preparing post to discuss this test.
I am scared where this results are leading, I may have depression.
But who would not, often my hard pines cannot orgasm.
It is not bad, but we always want to have hard pines at moments notice, mine takes its time.
I could also use more energy, with little exercise I am already sweating, I am able to keep going but I used to have much more energy.
Anyhow, I thought of myself as rather happy and satisfied, and now this.
Supplements that are recomended (within test report) helps cancer (melanoma) to develop,
but I already have one cancer, LipoSarcoma.
Questions, questions.
Look for that post and any comments latter on,
you may consider that test for yourself, but only after you are done with thorough blood testing.
