[QUOTE="Jason Sypolt, post: 64202, member: 13328"] There are a lot of guys who know more than I do here, but maybe this can help. With a Total T that low, an MRI is a good idea. I believe 150 is about the threshold for considering a pituitary MRI. TSH is probably high. In an adult, TSH over 2.5 can indicate underactive thyroid. I'm not sure how that differs for a teen. I was diagnosed with primary hypogonadism because LH was normal. With secondary, you'll see low LH result and not something near the middle of the range. My IGF-1 is 173 and I'm 38, but I have a different lab range for my result. My DHEA is around 500, but I have to supplement to get it that high. A good doctor who really understands these things is _really_ hard to find. Call Defy Medical and talk to them. Dr. Saya is just the best. They do telemedicine so you can live anywhere in the US and the costs are really reasonable. That's where I get my treatment from and it's where I would get that kind of treatment for any of my kids if it were needed. [/QUOTE]
