Hello,
I am a 32-year-old male and I would appreciate your opinion regarding whether I might be a candidate for a TRT trial.
I have been experiencing symptoms that could be related to low testosterone such as reduced energy, lower motivation and difficulty maintaining optimal performance in the gym despite consistent training.
Relevant background:
- Age: 32
- Height: 183 cm
- Weight: ~79.5 kg
- Training: strength training ~3–4 times per week
- Medical condition: autoimmune hypothyroidism (currently treated)
Recent morning blood test results:
Total Testosterone: 5.24 ng/mL (524 ng/dL)
Free Testosterone: 10.30 pg/mL (lab range 9.1 – 32.2)
SHBG: 36.04 nmol/L
LH: 4.6 mIU/mL
FSH: 2.91 mIU/mL
Estradiol (E2): 24 pg/mL
Prolactin: 5.79 ng/mL
DHEA-S: 178 µg/dL
DHT: 338.87 pg/mL
Thyroid markers:
TSH: 2.7
Free T4: 1.24
Free T3: 2.53
IGF-1: 219 ng/mL
My total testosterone appears to be in the mid-range, but my free testosterone seems to be near the lower end of the reference range.
Given these numbers and symptoms, would a 3–6 month TRT trial be reasonable to consider?
I feel tired, exhausted, depressed.
Currently using retatrutide also.
I would really appreciate your professional opinion.
Thank you.
