[QUOTE="Gene Devine, post: 4201, member: 4"] Chaitanya - You're missing a lot of important labs and for a guy 30 years of age I highly doubt your low levels are age related decline; in fact, you should be near peak levels at your age. I would suspect some thing else is causing your low levels. Without knowing the ranges for the labs above and only guessing it appears your Testosterone serum levels are low...but why? Is it related to a pathology or other medical condition? Is it related to your life style? Is it related to any meds or others supplements you are taking? Is it related to past medical conditions or use of medicines? Many questions yet and the astute Physician will know how to diagnose you correctly. I don't see any Thyroid work up here that could point to Hypothyroidism...Hypothyroidism has many of the same symptoms and conditions as Hypogonadism and in fact can cause the same! I don't see a prolactin lab that could point to a Pituitary problem. I don't see Estrogen assay that could point to excessive conversion to E2. I would NOT take any Testosterone till you have a complete work up done by a well trained Physician in area of hormones for men and you get a comprehensive diagnosis. Just slamming you with Testosterone without knowing the underlining cause of your low levels is paramount to putting a band aid on a tumor IMO. [/QUOTE]
