Also, just to clarify, I went to her as a second opinion, she didn't order blood work in the first place, the primary care and urologist did. She did include thyroid panel for the follow up in 6 weeks along with testosterone, estradiol, fh and lh, lipids, and other things I can't remember as I...

Eh, maybe I made it sound more simple than how she made it out to be. Basically she said that there are 3 things going on right now. Low T, Vitamin D, and TSH. She said that because the Low T was much worse than the TSH that that is what she wants to focus on first. She doesn't want to start...

Hey guys, I've had diagnosed low T for about 5 years with no treatment. I am 33 years old with 1 kid and planning on having at least one more. Long story as to why but lets just say bad doctors and call it a day. So today I went for a second opinion with an Endocrinologist after an...

So here is my backstory. I am a 33 y/o father of 1 conceived naturally. About 5 years ago I went to my primary care complaining of lack of energy and libido. He orders a free testosterone test (that is it), it is low, he says start taking androgel. No talk of monitoring, looking at other...

I'm sorry I'm a little confused. Just curious as to why you said that. I've been on it for almost a month and have had no adverse reactions

What is wrong with it? Why not?

Thank you for the questions to ask! There are not any erectile issues, just no sex drive. You've all definitely given me a lot to think about and I have been googling this whole time. I guess the main things I will be asking is about the high thyroid levels, the low vitamin d, and the...

it is a prescription, 50,000 iu once a week for 6 months

Nope, washington dc. Hot and humid. Primary care doc put me on vitamin d supplement once a week for 6 months

None of the other tests you mentioned were run (thyroid or DHT and DHEA), not sure if you saw my edit but my Vitamin D was 17.8 (30-100)

For my thyroid, I only have the TSH number TSH 3.270 (0.450-4.500) side note, my vitamin d was low vitamin d, 25-hydroxy 17.8 (30-100)

My apologies, my primary care physician ran the full gambit of every test possible including thyroid and all came back normal. The only thing that stood out was the low t so he sent me to the urologist because I mentioned my wife and I are still considering more children. No sleep apnea, no...

So I am new to the forum and I have seen many posts about this, but I thought i'd post my own story to get myself started. About 5 years ago I had testosterone tested due to lack of libido. Family doctor says "its low, go on Androgel". Did some research and saw that I probably shouldn't do...
