Ran a thyroid panel just because I had to know. Looks good I think. Guess my tiredness is plain old. Caffeine dependence and poor sleep. Working on both
 
Your tests are incomplete, there's room for improvement there, your Free T3 could be 3.9 or better but or more concern is you missed Reverse T3 which would tell us if your T3 is pooling and not able to be used by your cells. Can account for your tiredness.

Also missing is the two antibodies tests.
 
Since trt I sleep poorly. Nights I do sleep good I feel 10 years younger. Doubt my primary doctor will order meds with those labs. But appreciate the input. I’ll order reverse t3. In 4 weeks with my other labs
 
We like to recommend all of these if they're affordable for you, if you need to cut costs you could skip the antibodies if necessary:

TSH
Free T4
Free T3
Reverse T3
Antibodies
 
I lost weight last year preaty easily and have kept it off preaty easy. i put on about 7 pounds since start of trt mostly muscle with slight increase in calories. . and I d I honestly didn't think I had a thyroid problem but with every one recommending It I had it checked just to see. I am by no means independently wealth but will skip a few slices of pizza to check certain things

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
