[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 250289, member: 38109"] One test isn't definitive, but these results say that low testosterone is probably not your problem. I would not start TRT with these numbers. The elevated gonadotropins (LH/FSH) are a little odd, and possibly hint at early testicular insufficiency. If you're determined to go in this direction then I would try a testosterone nasal gel for a few months. This would let you experience higher levels without as much disruption of your other hormones. Given that your hemoglobin and hematocrit are already at the high end, I think any use of exogenous testosterone is likely to cause you problems with additional elevation. Have you been tested for sleep apnea? Other things to look at include thyroid hormones, zinc and vitamin D status. [/QUOTE]
