[QUOTE="balata1, post: 162208, member: 38104"] I think my Dr. is mistaken in calling for an MRI of my pituitary and I wanted to get another opinion here. I have been diagnosed with Secondary Hypogonadism and he is wanting me to go for the MRI. My research states that 1) an MRI is needed if levels of Prolactin are higher than normal. My Prolactin level is right in the middle of the normal range (7.0). 2) I have also read that "Low testosterone levels caused by the hypothalamus or pituitary gland will reveal [B]low testosterone and inappropriately normal levels of LH and FSH."[/B] My FSH (1.9) and LH (1.7) are both very much lower than normal. This seems to contradict the need for MRI of the pituitary - would you agree? thanks [/QUOTE]
