I recently had full blood work done as I wasn't convinced that T/E2/SHBG was in the normal range, furthermore I have creaky joints, muscle fatigue/weak muscles, lacking morning wood, shitty workouts. I have discussed these symptoms with my GP who is an idiot and says "if it's within range you have nothing to worry about", according to him my body hair on my chest, legs arms is a good indication of my test levels? I say his an idiot. I am desperately seeking info/advise on my levels.

note: I am sexually active with my girl, 5-7 times a week lol (apparently this could cause low T?) however I am 22 years old. This sucks if my T levels are low at 22, lol. Last resort will be cycling. Need help, thanks in advance.

note: my training was intense from 2011 to end of September 11 with perfect diet. I put on 6-7kg at 10-11% bf, since sept my workouts are shitty.. =/

Total Testosterone = 16 nmol/l (8.3-29) (Very CONCERNING)
SHBG = 43 nmol/l (11-71) (very concerning)
OEST2 = 83 pmol/l (<150) ??
DHEA = 9 umol/l (2.2-15) ??
Cortisol = 472nmol/l (120-620) ??
FSH = 1 IU/L <7 ??
LH = 5.2 IU/L <7 (this concerned me as it relates to testicular failure) ??
Prolactin =145 mIU/L (40-450) Ive done my research and found in a scientific journal that prolactin is suppose to be low in males



All stated above are apparently all within normal ranges- looking forward to your comments/answers

Is there anything you are doing or coming in contact with that would be causing the low T? Have you looked into other threads that list possible low t causes (head trama, shot to the nuts, plastics, OTC meds etc)? what is really your question as well? (not being a dick but I literally couldnt see a question, looks like you want comments on your levels but I think you are really digging for something more)Why are you very concerned with those levels? What about other test results? Whats your E levels at? What is free test etc?
