Question to Phil/other re.diagnosis of hypogonadism

[Guest guest]

Dear Phil and other members.

I am a new member of this forum and have an appointment to see a pituitary

specialist in a couple of days. I am 37 year old male with low testosterone,

low LH and FSH levels and I think I have secondary hypogonadism. Besides, I

have hypothyroidism and low cortisol and am on armour and cortef.

My question is regarding a diagnosis of hypogonadism.

I would like to ask the doctor to refer me for a gonadotropin-releasing hormone

stimulation test and MRI of pituitary to confirm the diagnosis. I would like

to know how GRHS stimulation test goes and if it a difficult test to undergo.

Also if there are any other tests you would suggest for diagnosis, please let me

know.

Thank you in advance,

Mark
