At your age, this is the medical specialist you want to see. You are doing the right thing.

This MD would order blood testing after your first visit, which is more of a consultation. After the testing results are in, there would be the second visit where a prescribed plan of corrective action would begin based on the test results.

What you might want to do is call the Doctor and request the blood testing now so the results will be there for the first visit. This may help with your worry.

You want the blood testing to be very detailed and include not only the normal comprehensive items, but also testo, free testo, esto, PSA, thyroid, DHT and hgh. I have this done every three months and there are about 20 vials drawn.

I have no idea why libido is shut down at your age. A cycle over a year ago should be out of your system. Hope you aren't doing anything else that could be the culprit.

Tell the Doc everything! That is the only way they can help. Look at this as an opportunity to learn about your body, recover and lead a healthy and happy life.

Good luck.

Sounds like your system hasn't really recovered. It took me over 5 years for my system to rebound (sort of) but I still don't record in normal testosterone levels. I went to go see an endrinconologist and they did the usual lab work and found out that my serum testosterone levels are low and now I am on depo-testosterone to bring it up. I went throught the same thing you are where you have no energy, no sexual drive, put on weight, etc. My doctor firmly believes it is low testosterone where I am getting it treated. My personal life significantly took a hit during the periods when I was off the drugs but I give a lot of credit to my wife for hanging in there and understanding. That's what I call true love.

usps,

did you make a 100% recovery from it? is there a way i can go to a lab prior to feb 16 to get blood drawn and everything checked prior to so i can have this for my endocrinologist to look at instead of waiting feb 16 for the initial consultation?

Expensive ... My insurance pays $1,600 to the lab for my testing.

Have Doctor fill out the form and your insurance pays. Tell him you want the first meeting to be productive.

I'll detail the best way to do this assuming you have insurance, since it will be covered. If not follow this as best as you can afford.

First, see your family doctor. Tell him you have no energy and no sex drive. Ask him if you can get complete blood workup done, and endocrinology report. He might order and review himself, or send you to an endocrinologist direct. They will check everything, and if your condition is hormone related they will be able to tell. What they do from there is based on the report.

If it comes back clean, then you need to see an Urologist for impotence, or ED as it is now called. Bring your endo report for him to review. Since it is not hormonal, they know it must be blood flow, the other cause. They will test you a few ways, one probably will be an ultrasound to measure bloodflow to the area. If you show reduced bloodflow, you will get a perscription for one of the three pills, and with any luck you can get insurance to cover the script.

It is always good to understand what is going on with your body, but if you can't afford, or just want to try the quickest solution possible, just find an online pharmacy who sells Cialis and give it a shot. Numerous sell it, look in the back of DuPont Register car magazine to find some names.
