To me, my Total test is low. I'm suffering from no sex drive, no morning erections, no erections during the day, weak erections and they are hard to maintain and go right away when physical stimulation is stopped, weak ejaculations, low energy etc.

My Dr. says my testosterone is fine and he is "quite pleased." I told him shouldn't I have high testosterone being a healthy 26 yr old or at least 700 ng/dl and he said "yes but your testosterone can't cause these symptoms." And he told me to exercise and maybe try a testosterone booster. I already do exercise several times a week.

Thoughts?
 
I'm pretty confident, at the age of 43, if my T was 450's, an Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) specialist would want to put me on therapy, assuming I had symptoms to go along with it. At 26, 458 seems way low to me. What's important is how you feel. Just my .02
