26 yr old, never used steroids or anything. Levels are low either from pituitary disorder or testicular problem I guess. Right now my levels of prolactin were at 22 which isn't considered high from what I read but was from my dr's reference so I don't think I have a prolactin-related tumor shutting down production. my levels of LH and FSH (I think??) were also low.
I've posted here before and you guys have helped me out I just thought I'd let you know how low my levels are. I've heard people complain of 250 total so I am figuring mine must be terrible! I cannot get treated until they find out if it is a tumor. I need to get an MRI but can't afford it currently but will be hopefully getting new insurance through a new job in about a month's time so all I can do is sit and wait I guess.
If they try to give me medicine to shrink a tumor I am def. going to need some help getting my levels back up. My doctor said he would prob. prescribe testosterone if I don't have the MRI but nothing can be done until then so I guess I just have to continue feeling like complete shit for the next month.
Any advice appreciated, just need to vent I guess. I'm pretty pissed that I can't just get treated for my low test now and then try to figure out what is causing it when i feel better.
