Normal testosterone levels 0 libido, will 500mg/w help?

I'm not here for the whole should or shouldn't do discussion as we have already discussed this in this thread:
http://www.steroidology.com/forum/my-steroid-cycle-forum/682069-hrt-cycle-sex-drive-mostly.html

I was discussing here before a cycle for getting my libido up since I thought I've had low testosterone levels.
I did a blood test again so I will be sure the numbers are up to date and my testosterone levels are above the average (so my doc says) at 22.0 nmol/L
My question is if it's technically possible to elevate libido while test levels are normal by shoving 500mg/w of test enanthate?
 
Your test levels wouldn't be normal on 500mgs of test per week...

I know, what I wanted to ask is if they are normal right now and libido is down, is it possible to raise libido by increasing testosterone or will it do nothing?
 
So you are at 635ng/dl which is right about perfectly average TT. So total testosterone is not your issue. TSH and LH look fine.

But without seeing additional blood work there isn't much more to say. You need your estradiol, prolactin, free testosterone, Vitamin D, CBC, and Meta-bolic Profile checked. If you already have these start translating. :)

Make sure you get blood work first thing in the morning after a good nights sleep.

Could you have sleep apnea?

My doctor said that prolactin doesn't need to be checked as long as testosterone is ok (although I don't trust any of these old fashioned docs that only know how to prescribe cough meds for kids).

I don't have most of these and as usual going to my doc asking for very specific tests doesn't make them happy and they don't always agree...especially that estradiol thing...

Can I ask for whatever I want when paying for private blood work? like give me this this and that?
 
Yes. Your doc should be able to provide this info too. Your doc works for you, not the other way around...

My kind of answer!
If he will give me any hard time I will tell him you said that ;)
Those docs have big a$$ egos sometimes...

If you are in the US, see the link below in my signature. It tells you how to get private blood work.
