So I had a hunch, and I asked my doctor to have my testosterone levels tested. I have an appointment with my doctor next week but I found out I can look at the test results online.
I got 470. I'm 23. Apparently, I have the testosterone level of an average 80 year old. That's not good, is it?
My question is, if my doctor refuses to give me treatment, how do I change their mind? Or should I just seek alternative treatment?
Also, I've never wanted sex in my life, nor have I had ambition or the desire to succeed since my early teen years. Perhaps I should have asked for this test sooner.
Hi OP I actually fairly recently found out I had low testosterone as well (similar age to you too) caused by a tumor(aint cancer got it tested) in my Pituitary Gland which made me produce more estrogen than a guy should produce. Which gave me bitchin tits. So I'd ask for a cat scan if ya can just to be safe. But once you get medicated and regulated T levels you should be feeling better or like a new person. Good luck.

Glad it wasn't cancer and that everything's working out! Thanks
I ha levels in the 300 range at 22. They don't give a fuck unless you're sub 200.

What type of doctor did you see about it? A specialist, a generic doctor you've never met, or a family doctor? I've known my doctor for nearly my entire life, but I'm willing to burn bridges if they're going to be a bitch about this.

Family docotr i've gone to for 10 years. Have never used any abusable medications and am a health professional. My doctor might just be stingy though.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll be sure to be on the offensive.
