So I'm 46 years old and sexual drive is down significantly along with ability to stay hard. I've taken tests in the pasts and then self-diagnose (with help on here as well), but think it's best to find a good doctor that can evaluate and put me on the true path to solve my issue to regular to my hormones; testosterone, shbg, cortisone, estrogen, etc...

I live in Dallas, but ok with someone over the phone. Can anyone recommend the best route to go to get full tests and find a doctor that really knows how to fix this?

thanks!
 
I've been using defy medical for over 7 years now. I live in Wisconsin and their in Florida. Theiy have you do your lab and then have a consultation. I pay everything out of pocket. I'm very happy using them. They also advertise on this website.
 
Definitely suggest Defy Medical. My wife and I both have been with them for a number of years and they're great. I get with my primary care physician and ask him order all the lab work that Defy asks for. My insurance pays 100% of the labs - no questions asked (unless it's Vitamin D, which I supplement anyway). I share the lab results with Defy and have a follow-up with them once every 6 months. Order HRT meds through their online store, delivered to the house. Wife and I give each other shots. I can always tell when she's angry - she twists the needle! LOL

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.
