    Looking for helpful answers, Middle thirties

    Hey, only just discovered this forum. I have been searching for info online for a little while now, have some concerns concerning test levels. I'll get started with some history.

    I'm becoming just like an person twice my age, but still in my thirty-something years.

    I have always been really mindful with my eating habits and very dedicated to exercising. I do barbells and do aerobic exercise frequently. I have never ever tried drugs, and I also don't drink that much either.

    However, for so much of my adult life, I've experienced these problems:

    Constant fatigue, regularly worn-out. I barely have enough energy. Regardless if I rest A TON.

    My brain is "fogged." It's hard to totally focus even for a brief amount of time. My ability to speak has struggled (can't think of the right words).

    What basically disturbs me is not getting the desire to complete what I intend. I typically am relatively depressed/blue.

    It's infrequent that I feel socially comfortable, there is just background anxiety. It is extremely painful to never manage to be at ease in public events.

    I barely want sex even a little bit. Additionally near pretty women it's difficult for me to be interested. I've even experienced ED, really shameful. I can't think of getting out of this hole.

    Exactly what do I try to do?

    When I got my T levels analyzed, they were quite low (just 365 ng/dl), but my doctor decided not to prescribe me test.

    I would ask your doctor why he isn't re-checking the hormone levels if they are low. It could be part of the reason of why your feeling this way.

    If you're thyroid levels (guessing thats what you mean by t-levels, sorry if I'm wrong) are low then you need to get them rechecked. Either get your current doctor to do that, or see another one and ask for a second opinion if he, for whatever reason, won't. You have a right to one.

    By T level do you mean testosterone? I am guessing that since you are referring to the measurement in ng/dl rather than the mIU/dl/ That seems quite low for someone in their mid thirties. I would see another doctor.
