[QUOTE="NeedMoreTee, post: 76877, member: 16107"] Thanks for all the info guys. It's really helpful to get a wide perspective from various viewpoints. I saw a urologist yesterday and it went much better. She was a nurse practitioner working under a guy that specializes in hypogonadism. She explained everything well and did an exam. So apparently if anyone doesn't know this, if you have a rectractile testicle that hangs out up in your abdomen somewhat it gets overheated. That causes it to shrink, to make less T, make less sperm, etc. She ordered some additional tests, bioavailable T, free and total, or something or other. Also an estradiol test to check on the ratio. I'm also going to have a scrotal ultrasound to see if I have varicole veins causing trouble or anything else weird. I asked her if 324 was normal and she said some guys will feel great at 300 and others need 700 to be alright, and that they will get me treated and feeling better after they get all the tests and information. I felt really good after hearing that. I really hope once I start treatment it will help get me jump started back into cardio, weight lifting, eating better. I have tried it so many times in the past 10 years and only had very limited success followed by massive failure. I was pretty good at it in my 20's but not in my 30's. If this can help push me over the edge and get me back into gear, it will have saved my life. [/QUOTE]
