July 17 of 2017, Labcorp changed their normal testosterone range from :

Adult Male >18 years: 348 – 1197 ng/dL

to

Adult Male >18 years: 264 – 916 ng/dL

This is a huge problem for unaware people, anything below <400 is not a normal level off testosterone.

Dr Justin Saya an MD said :

It already pains me when a man presents to his traditional doc with all of the classic hypogonadal symptoms and a testosterone level of 370 ng/dL (with current range 348 - 1197) and is told he has "normal" testosterone levels and his problem lies elsewhere (such as a Prozac deficiency as opposed to Testosterone deficiency...sarcastic). Imagine now a man presenting with a testosterone level of 270 ng/dL and told the same?!?!

WAKE UP FIT.

This is very very bad, I will post the solution below, please make an effort to educate people on this, here's the LABCORP STATEMENT : https://www.labcorp.com/assets/11476

Read this first : https://archive.is/SRfMp

Follow this then : https://archive.is/7vjtu

And then search, but be aware your testosterone should be

>700
>700

This is the magic number, PLEASE FIT, PLEASE LISTEN TO ME, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO ARE LETHARGIC, DEPRESSED OR FILL A BIG LACK OF ENERGY IN THE MORNINGS

ITS MOST LIKELY YOUR TESTOSTERONE!!

PLEASE GET IT CHECKED OUT!

I posted in a thread before, my brother is an MD and he knows this shit, ask me anything you want you hear me? I'll answer it as long as it is related to testosterone.

THE TAKE AWAY MESSAGE :

TESTOSTERONE IS WHAT MAKES A MAN A MAN, ITS ONE OFF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS.

DUDE.

It's worth getting tested at any fucking age, in fact you should, in europe it's like 20 bucks, in the states I believe its like 130 but you can get saliva kits for like 15, not as accurate but you can diy.

Do it, I promise it's the best investment you can do!

I've actually got an appointment with a specialist (same guy who did the surgery actually) who is able to prescribe test replacement in late August. I had to book that appointment back in February. To compare the time frames, the time between finding out I had cancer and having surgery was less than a week.

>>42268249
Literally none. I not only have one nut but have most of the typical symptoms including depression so bad that I'm seeing a therapist on a weekly basis and I could barely get a GP to even talk about it. I had to wait until I had a yearly follow up with my oncologist who then referred me to the urologist (apparently only a urologist or endocrinologist can give you test replacement)

When I got a blood test through a GP to see if my levels had changed (my first test was only a few months after stopping chemotherapy which can have an affect on the result), he didn't even let me know when the results were back. I ended up calling because it was taking so long to hear and was told that they'd gotten the results back weeks ago and the Dr just decided to not follow up on it.

You don't think that currently there's a male epidemic in advanced societies? Fertility and Testosterone levels have been dropping, kids and teenagers are spending more time siting inside, there are more virgins and virgins today, this is not due Allan there being born with a genetic predisposition to low testosterone, this is induced, the same way depression is a disease off civilization, so is super low testosterone.

>>42268777
I believe so.

>>42267954
This testosterone cures all fad is kind of a meme to sell TRT, you should test it a couple of times if you're on those borderline levels because it's so variable, also get a fucking complete panel of other stuff just to be sure. Wouldn't surprise me if there are a lot of retards who jumped on TRT or just ilegal roids and are carrying a fucking prolactinoma in their pituitary glands.

It's very depressing that this is a huge crisis going on and it's not on anyone's radar. Anyone in a position of influence at least. Men in general really are highly disposable and tools and no one cares about us. Thanks for the thread OP, gave me a lot to think about.

I completelly agree, It should be NOTED :

I'm not advocating for you to get TRT, instead improve your testosterone levels naturally, you can triple them naturally, (read my second post).

And, yes a complete panel is advisable if you want to start TRT, if not, thyroid and vit D3 would be my recs.

You don't need TRT to get from 254 ng/dl to 700.

It's absolute bull, check http://www.peaktestosterone.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=r1l8obofh63cbhvncv1i4u6dm3&topic=13023.0 read the first post carefully.

Get it at >650

>>42268860
Low energy
Apathy
Lethargy
Let's say you're at the gym, you will never feel 100% on your workouts
some hair loss
low sex drive (meaning your erections aren't always full)
Mood changes

But the problem you see, is not with low test, but "normal" test, I know this is a shock but if you've never had your test above >650 You've never felt like a real fully potentialized man.

To me, my confidence came, I didn't know I had one, my energy came I was like a fucking bull (still am), my anxiety fucking went away for good, I stopped caring what others thought, it's just great, and I want every male here to feel that, because that's what a man is supposed to be like, it's quite a realization knowing you spent your whole life living in a shell.

Test and Balding are not related, there's more relation betwen heart disease, low vitamin D3 and hairloss than Test.

Mexicans for example have the highest test in comparison with whites and blacks, however they don't have much hairloss.

It's due to genetics.

AND NO, if anything your low test is gonna accelerate your balding. source : MD brother and a lot off research on my own.

>>42269073
Very good, my advice would be to try to get it naturally at around 1000 and see how you feel, there's nothing wrong with 1000 ng/dl, just try and find your optimal level, I'm in the process off raising mine atm, trying to get to 1100 ng/dl and see if I notice anything different in relation to sex and endurance.

1. The Free testosterone value doesn't really matter that much. Bound is more important.
2. Docs that care about treating hypogonadism don't give a fuck what lab crop says. Only some plans of blue cross blue shield will actually look at the numbers before paying.
3. Wtf is a Prozac defiency? Prozac is a SSRI, and a lot of the symptoms of hypogonadism are similar to depression. In young adults recommending an SSRI would be the more likely case.
4. Do a little work and it is essy to find a Dr. that treats the symptoms and not the numbers. Try to find a urologist that focuses on hypogonadism instead of a family medicine Dr.
5. TRT is not going to turn you into Jeff Seid

You don't know what you're talking about friend.

Neither do I, what are you talking about?

The whole problem is that "normal" levels are being lowered meanwhile guys with these symptoms >>42269027 or not are walking around with SSRIs when their problem is a lack off 200 ng/dl of test that could be easily fixed.

Meanwhile they're fucking themselves up even more and they don't even know it, some doctors know about this like I said check this thread : http://www.peaktestosterone.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=r1l8obofh63cbhvncv1i4u6dm3&topic=13023.0

That is just not true. You can just hop on Google Scholar and find plenty of studies that have found a correlation between high testosterone levels and baldness.

>>42269110
Oh I'd love to have it that high. I'm pretty sure when I was several years younger I was sitting close to that. Constantly wanted to fuck and felt very aggressive. It sounds scary but I also felt amazing. Not sure what I can do to increase test more, since I already eat clean, high protein diets and lift heavy regularly. Also began HIIT a few months back and try to eat supposed super foods like kale and blueberries on the regular. I could probably use a better sleep schedule but besides that...I don't know.
>>
>>42269159
1. This is good advice, at what level would you consider advising someone to follow a routine that will achieve desirable test results? Is there a big focus on diet and lifestyle in your field or do you guys see a 300 ng/dl and tell him it's fine, or give him TRT?

"Prozac defiency" He's obviously being facetious, fact his a lot of kids are walking around on Welbutrin when they could have a better outcome with a preventive plan. (not shitting on SSRIS)

And I'm not advocating for TRT, I'm stating the fact that currently most men don't have their levels in the optimal range, droping the normal value to a measle 264 ng/dl is treturous.

Read : http://www.peaktestosterone.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=r1l8obofh63cbhvncv1i4u6dm3&topic=13023.0 and tell me what you think.

Any more advice you have?

>>42269162
If you're american I recommend doing this https://www.wellnessfx.com/performance test levels are included I believe.
>>
>>42267954
Duh, no shit.

I was 11 nmol/L (I'm in the UK) and NHS range is 9 to 35. While that is "in range" the range is taken from a cross-section of the population.

11nmol/L is average for an 85 year old man...

I now inject test, and it is the best thing I've ever done.

Good news is that in developed nations like the UK where steroids are perfectly legal, a lot of research is being done into using test instead of anti-depressants to treat male "depression" and "anxiety" which is most often caused by a drop in test levels.

In a backward brainwashed nation like the US where steroids are illegal you might have more of a problem, but nevermind eh? Just get it illegally.
>>
>>42268663
Go to your GP.

Tell him your planning on steroid use, and want a base reading first. Report low-test symptoms to him (lie if you need to).

A GP has a duty of care, so should give you bloodwork before, during, and after your cycle/PCT. Mine is.

Failing that, a lot of people I know use Medichecks and they're regularly mentioned on a popular UK steroid forum. A bit of a pain draining your own blood, but doable.

Last time i checked my test was 567ng/dL
>>
>>42269207
It's actually high DHT levels, so yeah, test is to blame, but you don't have to be "high test" to go bald.

Genetics is the big factor though really - a lot of guys thinking about doing test worry it will cause them to lose their hair. It can do, but only if you were going to lose it anyway, it just hurries things up a bit.

I'm 11 weeks into my first cycle and if anything my hair is thicker!

I've been doing mindfulness meditation 2 months now, I would be lying if I said I don't feel like a fucking god.

Check this out : http://www.ergo-log.com/testosteroneboosters.html have at it!

Also check your cortisol levels, some people use ashwagandha, procede with caution.

btw it feels fucking great getting that inner sense off aggression doesn't it mate?

>>42269207
It's genetic, your test levels will influence baldness to the extent off the gene being turned on or off, I'd rather have high test rocking a buzzcut than low test, and I had both very low test and very high test, teenager years were a rumble.
>>
>>42269316
I'm not that anon but how can i lower my cortisol level? Last time i checked it was way above average. Idk if that has something to do with this but my hair is falling like crazy.
>>
>>42269274
Good going mate, never needed Test, just boosted it naturally but I'm fucking glad your on the top off your game.

Also Europe is somewhat retared, adderall for example is banned here, for a layman you might think oh that's great but for someone with adhd its hell, since not every medication works, if you're out off options here you're essentially fucked for life.

But you're not in Europe anymore :)

>>42269313
I want to elucidate on this, has anyone read Hair like a fox? I heard it was a new approach to balding.
>>
>>42269353
Sure.

I recommend you take this : https://www.amazon.com/Gaia-Herbs-Adrenal-Support-Phyto-Caps/dp/B0036THML2/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 and see how you feel, very good brand.

Then start following this program : https://archive.is/7vjtu

Also make sure you get 8 hours off deep sleep, install a sleep tracker on your phone and analyze it, take zinc and magnesium before bed, catch at least 30 minutes off sun in the morning and if possible meditate, I recommend Sam harris guided meditation you can find it on youtube.

Oh and try to follow your circadian rythm.

Funny you mention meditation, because I've dabbled for the past year or so for other reasons. I've heard of ashwagandha, never gave it a shot.

And yes, feeling aggressive is great. It makes you not settle for bullshit. Not just other people's bullshit, but life's bullshit. I attribute it to my attempt at starting a business. How that works out we'll see, but I feel like I'm grabbing life by the balls.

Reminder that high Testosterone creates toxic masculinity which is largely responsible for women, transfolk and minorities being unsafe at work and at home.

Reminder that women really will be as strong as men soon if testosterone levels keep dropping, so overall it's just better all round for humanity in the long run.

If someone comes in w/ a Cc and Sx of hypogonadism and they already have had labs done, they will get a Rx for test, most likely along with Hcg. The we set them up for repeat peaks and troughs labs to stabilize hormone levels, check on E2, and find what the optimal injection schedule is.

I agree with what I read from that link. We get a lot of patients that get their lab work done by their PCP and since its in the range they tell the Pt it's normal you are just getting old tough luck. That is why I recommend for people to do a little research into what Doctor they are going to see. You're average PCP/FM/Endo is not going to give a fuck about low T. I recommend urologists over endos, since we deal with all male sexual health and Genitourinary problems.


And too testicular cancer guy, it shouldn't be a problem for you to get testosterone. A urologist did your orchiectomy, I would make an appointment with them to discuss it.
>>
>>42269415
It's curious isn't it everyone?

How you can get easily estrogen because it always comes packed with surgery and months and months off medical bills, essentially you're not buying estrogen but a lenghty and costly process.

But if you wan testosterone just to get your levels up (because you haven't researched how to do it naturally) it's a big no no, an easy and cheap fix, no no.

I'm just conspiring, as always though follow the money, especially in pharma.

>>42269435
This is what I want everyone to feel like, because it's our natural state! Fukin A OP.

Fucking Hell. I'm 24 years old, I'm at a healthy bodyfat, I lift, I eat clean, I sleep 8-9 hours every night, I have almost no stress factors in my life. There's very few things I could do that potentially increase my test naturally.
Granted the test was after being sick for a week, so that could have affected it.
>Asked doc to do a re-test after I'm well again
>No, everything's normal, just the sickness affected a few markers, no reason to test again
(I also had not fapped for 4 months at that point. Now I'm back to fapping every couple of days to once a week and I'm a lot hornier and regularly get morning wood. So I guess I should be fine. Still would be nice to see a good number black on white)

You seem stressed brah
I havent had my t levels checked, but im never upset or emotional regardless of my circumstances and i do the stuff you said
I also spend a lot of time in the sun (aim to be outside for at least 2 hours and get a full tan -- tans have been shown to radically affect t levels)
You should also meditate and look into foods that target T. Garlic has a thing called allicin that activates if you crush it and leave it for 10 mins then eat within 2-3 mins that supposedly triples T. I started getting morning wood again after I ate 2 tsps of this every day and spent hours outside
>>
>>42270161
I'm gonna help you out, chill man.

Here's what I want you to do :

1. Find out in your area where you can get your test checked, you can do this for example : https://www.wellnessfx.com/performance, google is your best fucking friend.

2. I read a while ago about nofap decreasing test after a certain X days, I have to look carefully into that, anyway.

3. See these 3 guides :

>https://archive.is/7vjtu
>http://spartantraveler.com/testosterone-diet-2015/
>https://www.testshock.com/how-to-naturally-raise-my-testosterone/

Things I want you to also checkout.

https://www.anabolicmen.com/how-to-increase-testosterone-levels-naturally/

and I want you to ctrl + f for ergo in this thread and see that link.

Read all of that carefully.

Also, avoid bpas and tin cans, as for tap water I have to read the literature, but I know there's some degree off estrogen, a reverse osmosis filter would be ideal.

How are your Vitamin D3 levels? Do you catch a lot of sun?

>>
>>42270486
>super irritable all the time
EWF, big symptom here pal.

Listen, READ THIS THREAD FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, VERY CAREFULLY, read this at least : >>42270313

You don't need doctors and you don't need TRT, ffs you're 27, you should be active and healthy and full off energy, there are currently high test 60 year olds doing gymnastics and getting gilfs like they were in they're 20s (I'm sure of this).

Again man, read the whole thread carefully and take notes, I can guarantee you this contents on this thread are all you need.

Here's something to scare you a little to get you into action :

Canadian researcher Marty Mrazik, PhD, who is based at the University of Alberta, says that the hormone testosterone may be the progenitor of superior intelligence. This is an entirely new angle in the debate, analysts comment.

According to Mrazik, having too much testosterone can have an increased level of intelligence as a side-effect. But this is just one among others, such as for example being more aggressive overall.

It's open to debate..

Good luck, fucking go at it mate, you're all gonna make it soon enough.
>>
>>42270243
Nah I'm fine.
I've been tanning almost daily for 3 months, got a nice tan now - not "wow you're dark dude"-tan, but I'm pretty light skinned anyways - I used to be basement-dweller pasty white year round.
Does the garlic thing work if I just add it to the food I cook? Or do I have to eat it raw? That wouldn't be a problem for me, but adding it to my meals would be a lot more convenient.

>>42270313
>nofap
My libido went to shit after some time. Now that I'm back to fapping semi-regularly, I'm horny as fuck all the time.
>D3
I try to spend as much time outside as I can every day - if the weather allows it. I also supplement with D3 and Zinc.
>BPAs
Yeah I try to avoid plastics as much as I can. I drink out of a glass bottle. And most food I eat is either from my own garden, or organic and bought in paper bags.
>tin cans
Barely ever eat anything out of tin cans. I have some beans, those say "BPA-free". Once I open them I store them in a porcelain bowl though.
>tap water
I drink like 3 liters of tap water per day...

Overall, I'm not really worried that my test is too low. I got 440 after a week of being totally sick, almost didn't eat or sleep, didn't exercise, didn't go outside much, etc.

As for diet, seems low-carb is a good idea. I'll definitely look into that. I just feel my performance suffers a lot if I don't get a load of carbs before lifting.
I already avoid sugar as much as I can already.

>LabCorp's previous reference interval was adopted from a 2011 study that included a population of lean healthy males

>LEAN, HEALTHY

There you go. Basically, just fucking do sports and don't get fat and your test will be alright. This also dispels the doctor's concern: If his patients show up weak and fat and he prescribes them test then he's just a bad doctor. He should encourage them to get fit and lose weight and their test would go back up naturally.
>>
>>42267987
my test is around 300 and my doc said it's nothing to be concerned about because it varies. what can i do? i'm from eu btw
>>
>>42270588
Honestly please follow my advice and get it checked, it seems you're horny all the time so you should be good but it doesn't hurt to get it checked, If I had a 400 level I would try to reach at least 700, you'll feel different.

>>42270604
Yea.

From leddit :

So the current (soon to be former) standard is based on LEAN men up to 40 years old and the new standard is based on healthy non-obese men up to 40 years old.
Lean and non-obese are very different body types.
It's hard not to think that this is just another way to reign in "toxic masculinity" and shit on men. Just making it harder for men to feel like men, and setting a new standard to keep men docile and broken.

>>42270625
You should first check my second post and read both links :

>>42267987

You'll find out why you're doctor is sadly (doctors know a lot) mistaken and why you should take matters in your own hands.

And then you should carefully read this whole thread because it's full off great content.

From a doctor if you haven't read the first post :

It already pains me when a man presents to his traditional doc with all of the classic hypogonadal symptoms and a testosterone level of 370 ng/dL (with current range 348 - 1197) and is told he has "normal" testosterone levels and his problem lies elsewhere (such as a Prozac deficiency as opposed to Testosterone deficiency...sarcastic). Imagine now a man presenting with a testosterone level of 270 ng/dL and told the same?!?!

Also get your test checked obviously, if you're in the Eu it's very cheap.
>>
Testbrah, do you know if music can affect test levels?
>>
>>42270654
Yeah, I'll definitely get it checked. Just have to convince my doc (who's my uncle) that it's for a good reason.
When I asked him whether I should do another blood test once I was no longer sick he acted as if that was a totally unreasonable request.
I mean - besides Inflammation everything was "fine", so his reasoning is understandable...

I know Stan Efferding is a big proponent of regular blood tests, I'll look his stuff up on how often and what markers I should have tested and then I'll get back to the doc and try to convince him that I need to get a full health check.
>>
>>42270743
Music can affect test levels, and almost exclusively negatively. If you're paranoid about your test levels literally stop listening to music. No joke. Sadly I can't find the image, guess I didn't save it.

I actually just lost my primary care doctor because he went to some private group thing where you have to pay 1600$ a year to keep him as your primary. Since I'm young and haven't seen him in 3 years I obviously decided against this. How would I go about finding a primary who is cool with steroids?

So, my erudite brothers, can you help me understand

Males don't stop maturing til they are in their early twenties (difference in times between races)
So it would be optimal to be high test through puberty and early 20s for development, not forgetting the social benefits of being high test
BUT
I have heard that artificially enhancing T levels before you are ~25 can seriously affect or even totally stunt your natural production, and you'd have to coast on supplementary T til you die if you want anywhere near natural levels

What do? I want to take advantage of my last few years of growth and save the white race

I am certain it's due to diet, honestly the health regulations in the U.S. are horrifying, everything you consume is filled with hormones and chemicals
>>
>>42267954
Just taking TRT can actually increase estrogen levels in the long term depending on how your body processes test. It often gets oxidized in the body and turns into estrogen. The easiest way to change this is by eating more rosemary and turmeric as they change the pathway for metabolism and prevent the Test getting oxidized.

A blood test will only show up free Test in the body...ideally you want a saliva test to see how much Test is bound in the body...much more informative measure.

Also stay the fuck away from plastics. Additionally all the women on the pill have been peeing those hormones into the water for decades....water treatment doesnt do anything to reduce estrogen levels....its no secret fish and other marine animals are turning female at higher rates than ever before.
>>
>>42273625
Jesus Christ that's horrifying. Am I just really out of the loop on all this or is it common knowledge? That is not good that there's so much estrogen in the water.

It's well known that exposure to xenoestrogens and other estrogen-disrupters can wreck all sorts of shit on fish and frogs, causing sex defects, intersex conditions, sex changes, etc.

It's not so much as exposure to birth control pills as other substances like phlathates, BPA and other industrial chemicals that are probably having this effect.

>this is why the frogs are turning gay
actually though, people make fun of alex jones for that but he's right, as in the hormones from birth control pills in our water system have been causing frogs and fish to spontaneously change sex

i dont think it is common knowledge but more and more people are becoming aware of the problem.

From Can Birth Control Hormones Be Filtered from the Water Supply?

“The best choice,” says Cathy Sherman of the natural health website Natural News, “would probably be a combination of a reverse osmosis filter augmented by pre- and post-activated carbon filters.” Installing such a system just for drinking water is sufficient, she says, given that water used for cleaning and plumbing doesn’t typically get ingested.

Laboratory conditions tough.

I wonder if rain water has any estrogen, fucking the whole world is infected.

>>42274077
You don't need to get on test to raise test levels.

Is your uncle from your mother side bald? if not you're a ok

for certain frog and fish populations. You can just filter your water. Reverse osmosis if you have money, carbon if you don't.

I don't get what you're saying is impractical. The links in here just mention eating meats, eggs, healthy nuts, lots of green vegetables, upping vitamins and fish oil and getting more sun. That sounds like solid stuff to me.

>>42268070
I suggest you acquire some T via the channels /fraud/sters do and self-prescribe TRT for a bit. That'll crash your natural production. Come off and then go to the doc. You'll be less than 200 for sure.

>But yes, you don't need TRT, there are 50 year with triple the test off 27 year olds.
So...a 50 year old man has 600*3=1800 ng/dL and you're going with "he's natty?"
>>
>>42274288

>I'm not giving any misinformation

The archive link you gave is an anecdote of a guy who, based on one study he didn't read correctly, ate an unhealthy diet in addition to a bunch of vitamin, mineral, and herbal supplements, and high-intensity exercise, then suggested that eating bacon was what contributed to the test gains he saw, and that his LDL score of 112mg/dl was just fine. This same guy thinks nuts raise testosterone because he thinks they have cholesterol.

>>42274308

It's a mix of some good advice (getting adequate vitamin D, getting adequate zinc and magnesium) with some terrible diet advice based on broscience.

Imagine I wrote an article about how to get better sleep. "Get atleast an hour of exercise each day, take valerian root tablets, turn off electronic devices a few hours before bedtime" and then added in "make sure to drink soda throughout the day" and made up some broscience about the sugar increasing seratonin production and making it easier to sleep. The diet advice is shit, the other advice is fine. When it's all lumped together in one article, it's not worth posting.

Hmm it seems that in a short time span the human male has suddenly stopped producing normal levels of testosterone, and we should immediately put millions of men who feel a little tired on TRT.

I got my levels measured a couple years ago when i bought into the low test meme, my testosterone was at the level of an 80 year old man. I was under a lot of stress back then, working out was shit, everything was shit. Things are better now. I feel good and strong, I sleep and eat better. Now imagine if my doc had put me on TRT instead of telling me to fix my real issues? I would be dependant on a drug and probably continued my unhealthy lifestyle, until another system of my body would've crashed. Fact is that the human male has suddendly not evolved to produce less testosterone, but that many men live a rather unhealthy lifestyle.

>>42274546
well I'm glad it worked out for you. But for a lot of people the cause isn't mainly lifestyle factors, but chemicals from plastics, and hormones which are not properly filtered from the water. Especially if the damage is done in puberty, that doesn't necessarily go back to normal. Furthermore, there is a large natural range. A man can naturally have 400 ng/dL or can have 100 ng/dL while being healthy. If someone naturally has iron deficiency would you say they should not supplement with iron? For sure, one could put in effort into diet changes to maximize iron, or the same for testosterone of course. But the effect on your body of raising testosterone by diet vs by drug is the same, so for a person with a healthy diet and low testosterone I assume you would support the use of trt?

I'm not an endcrinologist so I'm not the right person to comment on who should be on trt, but I don't think a man should suffer either if every natural method has been tried unsuccessfully. There are legit cases of hypogonadism, but there is also a low test meme going on that is causing many guys to search for an "easy fix".

nutritionfacts.org is great and all, but when you're optimizing your diet to achieve the outcome of not dying of heart disease, any amount of exogenous cholesterol intake is a mortal sin. If you're optimizing your diet for Test production, things are a bit more complex. There are trade-offs involved here. Optimizing test production might mean having slightly less pliable arteries than you would like. If you're only interested in lording your nutritional preferences over people trying to optimize their diets for a different outcome than you, then pls get >>>/out/ and stay out.

You're assuming a lot from that post and asserting too much to make your own point. There's no basis for eating such a bad, fatty diet. The idea that eating lots of cholesterol and saturated fat will optimize test production is not a scientifically backed concept. The evidence given in that art-of-manliness article is one observational, non-experimental study done on 12 guys where half of them had no difference in testosterone levels even at double the fat intake, and some studies on leydig cells in rats. I can understand someone trading certain aspects of health to better suit other goals they have but in this case there's no benefit.

You basically have two options.
Either you go directly and say "I might have low test, can I get it checked"
Or you go for a more general blood test "just to see if I'm healthy". There's a list in this thread somewhere with things you should get tested for a complete view of you health.

>>42277623
At your weight, fat loss is still the number one priority. But those two aren't mutually exclusive. You can still eat bacon and eggs, you just have to reduce calories elsewhere. A low-carb or keto-style diet would be an option here.

No it isn't.
There simply is no consensus among institutions and countries as to what's the "normal range".
And it's also different which age range is included. Yours says 20-49, the one in the OP is 18-39 iirc.
There's also differences in how the data is collected, and what criteria apply. Testosterone levels are affected by many factors and especially today, very very very few people manage to have a lifestyle that's free of negative influence and full of positive aspects.
The point of this thread is that we should not aim to be "within normal range", but to reach an ideal level.
For most people here, who lift and are interested in optimizing their health, they should compare their T levels to
"18 - 39 year old males, who are lean, exercise regularly, eat a clean diet, rarely drink alcohol, sleep 9 hours every night, have a healthy sex life, etc etc"
instead of
"18 - 39 year old males with a BMI below 30"

For anyone suffering with depression, 5 htp and lithium orotate are amazing supplements to try. They still don't beat sunlight, socialising and lifting though.

Sure.

Why are men losing testosterone, well it very much relates to our environment and how we behave, modern man isn't a man, look up the new study on sperm values in the west.

I've posted multiple guides on how you can and should raise them in this thread, 2 off them are on the second post.

>>42280344
Super Large amounts of testosterone growing up are associated with short stature, you want to keep an healthy level while growing up, you don't want to be in <300s or >1200s

Also testosterone obviously isn't a cure all for everything in life, it is however currently a major issue, just because you have high levels doesn't mean you won't have anxiety, some people are genetically prone to anxiety for example.

My advice : Check your cortisol levels, try to achieve a good balance, ctrl f for cortisol on this thread.

It would not surprise me at all if virtually all transgenderism is just a symptom of insufficient testosterone

Most likely a ause off problems such as :

Low testosterone in the womb after the sex of the baby is defined, i.e the reason lesbians exist is because they receive high amounts of testosterone in the womb, this is scientific fact, you can also see in female players/lesbians the well defined jawlines they all have, I suspect this is a major reason.

Then there is modern society, here's something frightning :

> Paracetamol during pregnancy can inhibit masculinity

"We have demonstrated that a reduced level of testosterone means that male characteristics do not develop as they should. This also affects sex drive. In a trial, mice exposed to paracetamol at the foetal stage were simply unable to copulate in the same way as our control animals. Male programming had not been properly established during their foetal development and this could be seen long afterwards in their adult life. It is very worrying," says David Mobjerg Kristensen.

The dosage administered to the mice was very close to the recommended dosage for pregnant women. Because the trials are restricted to mice, the results cannot be transferred directly to humans. However, the researchers' certainty about the harmful effects of paracetamol means it would be improper to undertake the same trials on humans, explains David Mobjerg Kristensen.

The results most likely can be seen on humans as well, no matter what they say, there's a reason we test on mice.

if i remember correctly, ive read low test adds to homosexual tendencies. i was gay/bi when i was young, very feminine /acted feminine. very depressed, no interest in anything, demotivated. started working out, eating a lot of iodine rich food, avoiding foods i was shown to be allergic to, masturbating in moderation (this is also a big one. you shouldn't 'nofap' or whatever, just don't do it in excess. for me its once every two weeks. anything is bad in excess) and my sexual preferences have gone completely straight. this is not an imaginary thing but physical, because its not that i chose to dislike gay porn now, but that i literally cannot get aroused by it and am slightly disgusted by it.
i also sleep on time, maintain a routine and it all keeps me very motivated. it's a law of the world that the rich keep getting richer and that doesn't just apply to money. if you actively strive and work hard to improve yourself, it will get better and things will halo around you in support of you. you will get mentally more capable to do more, money wise more ability to invest, more stable environment, peers looking up to you.. etc.. it just spirals out of control, same ways to being "poor". if you dont do anything then mother earth will drag you back down by some disease or you shooting yourself in the head from depression or drugs.
>>
>>42280702


not to mention, if i maintain a routine of working out i also get extremely confident and outgoing, my stature gets better, everything improves. i dont overthink things and i become cool and chilled out with no anxiety. i dont fear putting myself in situations, in fact i strive to do it.

Your advise is pretty good, but stay the hell away from Sam Harris for guided meditations, good lord - he's an atheist, outpouring of arrogance jew. Use lots of discrimination when looking into meditation. It's not smart to open yourself up to lots of what's out there.

If you want good beginner advice for meditation, try Adyashanti or try Barry Long.

Adress the root cause off the issue, it's logical that you can not live like you were living before, you need to use this treatment to make changes and improve your test levels naturally, if you don't the result is self evident, do you realize what I am saying?

>>42281552
who is they? There are many other ways to keep an healthy prostate, 21 ejaculations per month? madness, I'm no nofap but there's a difference in my mind between masturbating 4 to 6 times per month with no porn and jacking off 21 times, your prostate will be fine, you know masturbation is a drop in the ocean, smoking and any other cancer causing compounds are much more dangerous.

1. Stop exercising

3. Buy plastic containers, microwave the whole milk and eat the meat in them as well, make sure they're not bpa free, even if they are it's more or less irrelevant
4. Sugar sugar sugar, get yourself stuffed with the worst sugar you can find
5. Avoid the sun at all costs

Probably won't make a dent in a couple off weeks but if you want to kill yourself this might work in the long run.

Truthfully I know milk as some estrogen inducing compounds but it's minuscule and it balances out because it contains testosterone positive compounds as well, I know that very high levels of test during teenage hood cause you to have a short stature, which might explain the size off northen europeans and the size of mexicans which have higher test levels than blacks and whites, difference is today the milk is >50% more on the estrogen side than the testosterone one, cows aren't fed properly and are injected with god knows what. If you can get your hand on normal cow milk i.e milk grown like our european ancestors used to do and you know it's not contaminated I would happily drink it during teenagehood.

Also highly doubt the"milk=prostate cancer" entirely especially when in the article it says:
>Estrone and prostate cancer risk in men: As far as the estrone levels Maruyama et al. measured in their 2010 study are concerned it is very difficult to tell, whether or not the 26% increase in E2 levels is or isn't a problem.
>The estrone values in the Maruyama study are unrealistic. With a normal range of <68pg/ml the subjects in the Maruyama study would have elevated E1 levels to begin with, if the measurement was correct.
>difficult to tell
>unrealistic
and
>What remains to be seen, though, is whether future epidemiological evidence will support or refute the currently heralded hypothesis that dairy consumption increases prostate cancer risk and whether we will be able to identify more feasible explanations for this relations than those that are implicated by the results Maruyama et al. present in their 2010 study.
