23 y/o male with sex drive problems.

Hi guys, I'm new around here and am really hoping you can help me.

I just came back from the urologist who does not think my lack of sex drive is

caused by testosterone problems. I first saw a doctor who then sent me there.

I forgot to make photocopies of my blood work (could probably ask for it if

needed) but I remember my Total Testosterone level was 13.7nmol/L (The urologist

was saying that the normal level for my age was around 12) and free testosterone

was in the mid 400s (nmol/L).

I have tried doing a bit of research online and it seems my free testosterone

level is OK but the total t. seems to be in the range of a 85 years old man!!

Am I crazy?

Thanks!

It would help to have the lab ranges and some more details... call the

doctor's office and get copies.

In the mean time, do you know which lab company did the testing?

If indeed you have total T of an 85YO then you have an issue, because

bioavailable T is only a portion of the total. Most men should be in

the upper range for total T and BAT while taking into consideration

other sex hormones and hormonal systems. You need a good diagnostician.

Hi alexandre.heturivard and Welcome,

Your right your TT levels are that if an old 85 to 100 yr. old man. And this is

why I say Endo's and Uro's are not good Dr.'s for low Testosterone.

But I need to tell you not all men lose there libido or sex life from low

Testosterone you need to test your Estradiol this is the bad guy here you can be

very low with your T levels where they are at I don't think you would be to high

it is just as bad because your Free T is up. But Free T is only 2% of your

Total T and your low so 2% of a low Total T is nothing.

You need to find a better Dr. are you in the UK if so your stuck with there

heath care systom.

Hi guys,

It's been a couple of days!!

As for the symptoms, I read the Wikipedia page and thought to myself : " Geez, is

the page reading my mind?!?! " . Libido is the first problem. Plus, I am always

tired and have been unable to sleep for a couple of months. Erections aren't

super strong and enjoyment of sex/masturbation is pretty low.

The rest from the page that match :

-Difficulty concentrating

-Memory loss (Used to retain a lot really easy)

-I'm fairly depressed and not motivated to do any kind of work. (Plus the fact

that the problem depresses me...)

-Seams like the testes' firmness has decreased as the same time as libido

-Penis size while not erect (I think) has decreased

I actually live in Montreal, Canada. Any of you knows a good resource??

Thanks!
