Hi,

I am 35 years old and my libido is non existent.

My last test cycle ended August 2017. I did a pct consisting of 50mg Clomid ED for 2 weeks, followed by 20mg Nolvadex ED for 4 weeks.

Following my PCT my libido did not crash. It was not as high as while on cycle, but that is to be expected.

Since the start of this year, my libido just crashed. I have used no anabolics since my last cycle.

I went to the doctor and he send me for blood tests.
Only Total Test, E2, Liver Function and Lipogram.

I have attached my results.

As you can see, my Total Test is like in very low, which could explain my low libido, but with such a low test level, why has my weight and strength (weight lifting) not decreased?

Surely I should feel real sluggish in the gym, but that is not the case at all!

The doctor wanted to put me on Test Cypionate @ 100mg per week for 3 weeks and then increasing it to 200mg for weeks 4-6 and then back to 100mg for weeks 7-9.


Now, I am almost certain that would increase my test levels and also my libido.


But, my concern is, I got married last year December and would like to stay fertile as we want to have children hopefully in the next year or so.


I was hoping you could assist me, as to keep my fertility (if I am) and then also help with the low test level?


I have to mention, I am weight training 4-5 times per week as I do work towards achieving the aesthetic look.

Which other blood tests would you recommend, as this would be the only way to tell which other hormones could be out of balance?

I would appreciate any assistance / input.

Thank you.

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.
