MEN: Post your total testosterone levels (ng/dL)

[Rafael Passoni]

My friend is endocrinologist and I asked him which problems I would have in the future because my TT levels were 932 mg/dl when I was 21(Normal range until 800 by laboratory's method). He said me that high TT levels are harmless and are also wanted in young man (since by natural means). I saw a lot of results of young health males (as you are) and they usualy have higher TT levels ( around 1000 ng/dl). It's a hard time for young boys, because they frequently are looking for girls.
In this book there is a TT x age curve, that shows abobe 1000 ng/dl peak in young males: Williams Textbook of Endocrinology.

For starters, medical specialists in my region are quite wary of the disease, given that we've got a high rate of infection within this part of Pennsylvania (very woodsy, lots of folk who spend time outdoors, etc.).



Anyway, a few weeks ago I began to present symptoms (most significant of which was fatigue) which were similar to those I experienced last time I contracted Lyme. Contacted my doctor and arranged for bloodwork to be done; he decided to screen for a variety of conditions which result in fatigue, low testosterone being one of them!

Ahhh I see. Same here in NJ, lots of Lyme. I didn't have fatigue, achy knees were my problem but I was negative for Lyme's that time. Another time, however, I developed a bullseye rash (I hike a lot, btw) on my upper thigh. I did not even get tested, I have a friend who is a Doc who just prescribed me antibiotics upon seeing the rash.

Anyway, pretty cool that you were able to find out your test level. Were you positive or negative for Lyme?

1. Bro, same! I love to hike. Most entertaining form of exercise there is, in my opinion.

2. Positive, so now I'm on doxycycline. So, so, so happy that I'm killing all of my healthy gut bacteria.

That's what my friend prescribed me, doxycycline! Hope you feel better quickly!

Your general practitioner, endocrinologist, etc. You have to have a “valid” excuse for measuring your levels, though—out of pocket testosterone tests are more expensive and unreliable.
