Let's see the literature you have seen. I always like seeing contrary evidence.

Thanks. This certainly says TT levels start decreasing 1% per year in men at age 30. I guess there is contradictory information out there. I guess that doesn't surprise me.
I also noticed that is said the following:
I guess you can stop telling people that testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) makes sleep apnea worse.

It seems everyone has an opinion...
What do you expect from docs...
Many are driven by their ego (to some degree) and if they can help a patient on the way... it's a good deal for them!
Other than quality sleep, sufficient fat and caloric intake, fish oil, vitamin d, ZMA, big muscle group heavy lifting, and no alcohol, what else would you all suggest to boost my test naturally before my next lab test.
And from what I hear, zma is zma but are there any brands that You have found to work best? This 496 number is haunting me. I want to do everything I can to increase it. From these charts, it looks like I should still be increasing with age. . .

Make sure your thyroid is functioning properly. Get the full thyroid panel run.
You can try a restart (aka PCT) to see if that can get your levels higher. But we need to see your LH and FSH to be able to say if that will work.
You could get your "plumbing" inspected by a urologist too if you haven't already.

What LH, FSH levels do you think will respond to a "restart"?

Post Cycle Therapy. It is a restart basically. You may also see it referred to as Dynamic Therapy.
Low T coupled with Low/Normal LH and FSH indicate Secondary Hypogonadism. Low T couple with High LH and FSH indicate Primary Hypogonadism. When you have Secondary Hypogonadism, a restart may be possible.
You can check you testicles for physical damage. Or maybe you had Mumps which can damage them. You may have a varicole. Lots of things to look for byba trained urologist.

Are you trying to use Private MD Labs?

If you are, Hawaii law's don't allow you to go through companies like private MD labs for blood work. You have to through your local doctor.
