As possibly some others have suggested, I would consider adding some Testosterone cream from one of the better compounded pharmacies available. The newer creams are more potent, at 200 mcG per Gram of cream, and with the Topiclick dispenser, you would "paint" your scrotum with the cream perhaps once or twice a day with probably only a click or two. This will increase your DHT since the T is converted thru the skin on the scrotum to DHT very efficiently. I recently started on the cream and have increased the dose twice, and with each dose increase saw increases in libido. I don't believe the libido is dose dependent, except to say, each one of us needs a certain amount of DHT to drive whatever libido nature gave you, taking more T after that won't help however, without DHT conversion libido and some of the other benefits may not be optimized either. What you don't get as much of with the cream, is potential body building muscle building in the near term at least. All in all the cream is easy to use, and works very well, and since you are already getting T your doctor may be willing to give a little of the cream to add in, especially since your total doesn't seem to be off the charts high.

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.
