How can i talk to my doctor about having low testosterone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
TRT and Docs: A difficult topic to talk with traditional doctors about because many pcp's don't understand low testosterone and how to treat it. They're quick to call you depressed . You need specifically a physician that understands the medicine, to many fly by night quick buck docs out there. Google "hrt forums testosterone" and talk with others who have similar symptoms and in your area for referrals.

I'm 43 yo with low libido for a while. Blood work shows testosterone @ 314 ng/dl (range is 292-867). Doc says is normal. But, since lab range is for *huge* age range i don't get how 314 is ok for 43 yo?
