Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I am new to all this and seem to be running in to the same problems as most. I had my level tested and my primary care doc started me on Androgel. I was testing at around 200. After a month or so, my levels dropped to 160 so he bumped up the Androgel. My levels dropped again to 136. Off to the urologist. He said it must be an absorbtion problem, switch to Testim. He also did have my FSH (<.3), LH (.3), & Prolactin (4.9) levels checked. My primary saw those results and said there must be a serious underlying problem so I will now be going to an endo. After looking at some of the info here, I realize there have been many errors made from the Dr's as far as how they are treating this and doing the testing, so what I would like to know is: 1) Regardless of the root cause, it appears the treatment is the same. Testosterone replacement therapy. What else is there? 2) Should I stop the Testim before seeing the endo as to not skew results Thanks for any info you can provide.
