Low testosterone: The most obvious problem is the low testosterone. Androgen supplements can sometimes help lower sex hormone binding globulin. You should have a conversation with your doctor about your symptoms and treatment options.

Why the tests ?: The results are probably all normal but the issue is what do you or your provider expect to learn from these studies--some of which require an endocrine (hormone) context to interpert.
