A member asked:
Please explain what do lower levels on dopamine mean..?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't know what you mean by "levels". Dopamine is a neurotransmitter. Neurotransmitters don't have "levels." They are made in presynaptic neurons, released, diffuse across the synaptic cleft (milliseconds), bind to the postsynaptic neuron (milliseconds), then are destroyed and recycled. Neurotransmitters are single-use molecules. Start here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurotransmission.
