You have the hormone levels of a elderly man and your doctor is uninformed. The average levels for someone your age is north of 600 ng/dL, your doctor doesn't really understand proper labs testing for thyroid or testosterone testing do to the fact SHBG was missed. SHBG is the gold standard for sex hormone testing, it tells us how well you hold onto your testosterone. Even if your doctor prescribe you TRT, she wouldn't know the first thing about how to monitor and properly balance your hormones.


It's time to move on to greener pastures and find a doctor who's head isn't buried in the sand. Expect most doctors to fail at TRT, most have no idea what a modern TRT protocol looks like or how to tailor a protocol based off you blood biomarkers, most will provide cookie cutter protocols designed for everyone. This often fails.
