  1. Labs tests in - Free T low - Need advice on what to do next

    Interestingly for homocysteine levels, increased protein intake has been shown to lower or not affect homocysteine levels. I would have thought higher protein = higher homocysteine. My dad tried the long-release, 3 month dose injection of test and he said it hurt like hell. Maybe it's just that...

  2. Labs tests in - Free T low - Need advice on what to do next

    Unfortunately, I'm in the Minneapolis so going to the east coast isn't as easy an option for me as Chicago, which is just an 8 hour drive away. What do you think of supplements such as Tongkat Ali and tribulus. Are they something worth exploring before TRT?

  3. Labs tests in - Free T low - Need advice on what to do next

    Wow, Appreciate the great advice weierstrass. I've learnt more from the post than from my past 3 doctor visits combined. The endo literally didn't even bother looking at my test results yesterday. My B12 levels are 263 pmol/L or 356 pg/mL (200-900). Is it considered low normal? After reading up...

  4. Labs tests in - Free T low - Need advice on what to do next

    Thanks Matrix. I hadn't taken any supplements 1 month prior to the latest lab tests, so no zinc supplementation. Is my TSH levels low and could that be the cause of my problems? What do you think of the testosterone levels, am I going down the right path or barking up a wrong tree? I just got...

    Bump?

  6. WANT to avoid TRT

    My lab says the reference range for Prolactin is 1.6-18.8 My prolactin levels were 9.0 4 months ago and 20.4 last month, so I'm no expert but it looks like it can vary widely?

  7. Labs tests in - Free T low - Need advice on what to do next

    I have been experiencing symptoms of low testosterone for years, low sex drive, problems maintaining an erection, lack of interest, memory problems. A year ago, I decided to have my testosterone levels tested after finding that most of my symptoms matched that of Low T. Test Results (July...

  8. Low Testosterone in 27 Year old Male

    I talked to the endo and he agreed to do a 2.5g gel for a 3 month trial. Seems like a low dose to me, will it make any difference at such a small dosage?

  9. Low Testosterone in 27 Year old Male

    Thanks for the comprehensive list of things to test. Assuming the endo isn't willing to do the test, is there any way to get it done on my own?

  10. Low Testosterone in 27 Year old Male

    What kind of treatment are you on? How did you know your production was damaged? My FSH and LH levels are within the reference range, albeit in the lower range.

  11. Low Testosterone in 27 Year old Male

    Before going to the endo, I saw an anti-aging doctor who knew about HCG but was reluctant to treat me before getting my thyroid function checked out by a endo. I'm just slightly reluctant to go back to the anti-aging doctor since endocronologists are supposed to be experts and I don't want to...

  12. Low Testosterone in 27 Year old Male

    Thanks! I asked the endo about HCG while I was there and he had no idea what it was. His only treatment option was TRT, which I would rather not do since it would damage my natural production. Should I try talking to the endo and checking if he's willing to put on on testosterone gel for a few...

  13. Low Testosterone in 27 Year old Male

    Hi, I have been experiencing symptoms of low testosterone for years, low sex drive, problems maintaining an erection, lack of interest, memory problems. I finally got my levels checked by an endocrinologist and these are my test results. Test Result Flag Normal Range TESTOSTERONE, TOTAL 333...

  14. Tested low for Testosterone (TT 268/Free 9.4), need advice on what to do next

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I've decided to go to the anti-aging clinic first and do a consultation with them. Will update this thread with the results of the visit.

  15. Tested low for Testosterone (TT 268/Free 9.4), need advice on what to do next

    I found an anti-aging clinic in my area and I'm wondering if I should go there for a consultation or if I should consult an actual endocrinologist. I'm just worried that the doctor at the anti-aging clinic might not know as much about low testosterone causes and treatments. But don't want to...
