[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 125644, member: 15832"] Your numbers don't mean much without ranges, but if those are labcorps ranges I would say your problem is very low SHBG. Depression and anxiety is common among low SHBG men. Low thyroid hormones (Free T3) can lower SHBG. If you are 21 years old, those testosterone numbers are terrible, if you are 80 years I would be somewhat impressed. We start losing 1% of our testosterone after 30 and start a slow decline as we age. A person can have what looks like normal TSH, Free T4 but Free T3 is low, then depression and anxiety is almost guaranteed. Free T3 speeds up every cell in your body, it drives metabolic rates such as fat burning ability. TSH closer to 0.5-1.0 is optimal, once you get to a TSH of 2.5 or above, problems are suspected. TSH by itself without Free T3 is all but useless, Free T3 is where the rubber meets the road. I've seen normal TSH under 2.0 and Free T3 is below ranges, TSH by itself can be a false profit.
