[QUOTE="Dave160, post: 169205, member: 40062"] Could I get some advice/suggestions on my blood Test results? I got the first test done in July 2019 through medichecks.com (UK) and a few repeat tests in Nov 2019 through my GP (GP said everything looks normal). These were done fasted at 9am Symptoms -Low/Loss of Libido -ED (weaker erections, difficulty getting & maintaining erection, little-no morning erections (early morning or night erections are weak, brief, or do not exist at all 90% of the time), no spontaneous erections, decreased sensation/sensitivity, increase refractory period. The Signs and symptoms on this link are similar to my symptoms although I’m not sure if I have this specifically [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venous_leak"]Venous leak - Wikipedia[/URL] -mood swings & irritability -general fatigue & low energy (even after 8-9 hrs of sleep) -difficulty concentrating, thinking, brain fog -difficulty building & maintaining muscle/strength (despite eating enough, training, recovering...) -Scalp/hair loss (could just be androgenic alopecia or something else Telogen effluvium, thyroid issue, deficiency...) Had these symptoms for over 3 years (24 now), but more specifically the loss of libido and erection issues being the most noticeable which started relatively suddenly (became more noticeable over the course of a few weeks, has been the same since). I didn’t have this issue before then at all. The only lifestyle/changes I made just before I started getting this was that I stared working out/lifting weights 3-4 times per week, started eating healthier/tracking calories, stopped having gluten and dairy as they always caused stomach/digestive issues and started supplementing with creatine (3-5g per day). I also recently discovered my grandfather (82) has been on TRT (cream) for almost a year. (I’m not sure if these are related to anything though) GP hasn’t said much, just said everything is normal. I’m not sure if I should go to an andrologist/urologist first to see if ED issues are vascular/blood flow related ([URL]https://www.doctify.co.uk/specialist/mr_amr_raheem[/URL]) or a TRT doc, there don’t seem to be many in the UK though, the main one seems to be Dr Robert Stevens [URL="https://themenshealthclinic.co.uk/dr-robert-stevens/"]Dr Robert Stevens | TRT Doctor UK | The Men's Health Clinic[/URL] Thanks [/QUOTE]
