Hi to all
been feeling pretty low lately, lot of the low T simptoms, especially libido beneath my heels, which is creating quite a few wife-issues.
I am 47yo, 172lbs, 5'9" BF 14%
Read a lot and decided to go get a test
Just got results, haven't spoken to doctor yet, but I was anxious
Results:
LH: 2.8 (1.5-9.3)
FSH: 4.4 (1.6-8.9)
Estradiol: 16 (<=39)
Cortisol: 12.5 (4.0-22.0)
DHEA Sulfate 186 (45-345)
Testosterone, Total 400 (241-827)
Cardio CRP 0.3 (<1.0)
PSA Total 0.5 (<=4.0)
Testosterone LCMSMS 526 (250-1100)
Testosterone, Free 86.8 (35.0-155.0)
SHBG 36 (10-50)
Cholesterol, total 169 (125-200)
HDL Cholesterol 64 (>=40)
Ratio 2.6 (<=5.0)
LDL 92 (<130)
TSH 1.78 (0.40-4.5)
T4.Free 1.3 (0.8-1.8)
T3, Free 3.2 (2.3-4.2)
Pretein total serum 7.2 (6.1-8.1)
Albumin 4.8 (3.6-5.1)
So if I am correct, my T is lowish but not low, them why am I feeling so shitty...? Weak, cannot put any muscle on, no matter how hard I work out and how attentive my diet (500cal over maintenance) generally weak, and groggy, and feeling low.
With these numbers I guess I wouldn't qualify for testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), right?
Thanks for your thoughts!
