What should I tell my GP:

[LimeySwine]

I have another appointment tuesday with my GP.

My result for test was 10.7= 306 free testosterone, coupled along with regular fatigue and some loss of libido , I believe I am right in questioning this at only age 24?

I want to get to the bottom of it, See whats causing this low test (if anything) and then get something done about it
.
What should I ask the doc?

Something along the lines of "Could I get a full hormonal blood panel taken?" or referal to an endocrinologist?

Cheers.

Referral to an endo would be your best bet. Although, they will probably not do anything seeing as how you're only 24. If you got a whole range of labs done (ie. estrogen, PSA, prolactin, LH, FSH, etc.) it may help your case some if the numbers do indicate that there is a problem.

Anti-Aging clinics would love to service you though.

I asked him for a full hormone profile and hes complying with me on that - Next tuesday.

But I asked about my low T - He seems to think its normal even though I explained the average etc.

I will wait and see what the other results come back as and post them up here and try get some feed back on them.

In the meantime he has prescribed me prozac. Anyone have any Info on Prozac & Bodybuilding?
Cheers.

HRT for women is common, I think it may be like pulling teeth to get it for men.

If anyone knows how to find a doctor in the UK, it will be on this website, The Andropause Society.

It was started by this fantastic clinical biochemist I have heard lecture on several occasions.

Availability of Testosterone Hormone Replacement Therapy HRT for men in the treatment of the Male Menopause or Andropause.

Thanks, Il check it out.

Serum FSH 2.6
Test 9.1

Thats all the figures I got from my Hormone profile,

Serously sh*t I guess. But he just prescribes me prozac "like im a fkin idiot. DOC im 24 , dont drink, dont smoke, exercise 4x week, so get on the idea you dense 80 year old tw*t!"

Sorry just had to get that out of my system,

So any serious suggestions as my doc is old and probably doesnt know enough about HRT hormones etc?
