Gay Look Due To Low Testosterone Levels

I am worried I have low testosterone levels. I am 16, and have a very high-pitched voice, hourglass figure, little body hair, little pubic hair, little underarm hair and very little muscle.

I am really worried, as this will affect me long-term and it is really embarrassing.

I know many people might say "maybe you're gay" but i don't think deep down i am.

Testosterone Levels Of 232 At Age Of 46

My husband & I are so upset over his testosterone level and the way kaiser permanente is treating him! his t is 232. he is 46 years old. he is brain fogged, fatigued, erectile dysfunction ed. ect, kaiser told him his blood test for t is normal at 232. we were previously with bcbs and they told him he was extremely low. our personal research shows the range to be 300 to 1000 and that his level of 232 would equate to a man of the age 85 to 100. today he followed up with an endo through kaiser again. the doc said it was normal again. when he told the doctor that it was normal for a man that is 85 years old. the doctor said well, we don't go by age, and the normal range is 175 to 720. so my husband said to the doc that are you telling me that a 25 year old can have the same level as an 85 year old and you think that's okay?? so absurd. the doc said yes as long as it's in that range. oh my God, he is an idiot! the doc said we go by the lab. we called the lab and they said that they send the testosterone out to a kaiser lab called regional. is that legal. i know they just don't want to pay for it. what can we do?

Low Testosterone Levels 382 Ng/dL At Age Of 28

I've recently taken a blood test and my testosterone levels seem pretty low (total 382 ng/dL, free 8.3pg/mL), DHEA levels are 505.7ug/dL.

I'm 28 and I've been having issues with sleep for most of my 20's and teens. I've also been experiencing some minimal gynecomastia (for several years) and general exhaustion. I don't come from a hairy family but have noticed, it can take several weeks before I need to shave.

My other blood and urine tests came back within normal ranges and I've been wondering....am I suffering from Low T?

Low Testosterone Levels? HRT? No Manly Body

I'm a 22 year old male guy. I am worried about my body and some aspects of my behavior. For my age, I consider myself not having a manly body. I have thin muscles and my breasts are kinda large, not a lot tho. During puberty, I didn't experience many changes. I have almost no facial hair or body hair. My genitals didn't grow a lot and my voice didn't got that deeper either. Additionally, I'm usually tired and I lack a lot of energy most of the time. One more thing that worries me is that my body language is not manly by nature. My movements are kinda feminine even though I don't mean them to be like that. For those reasons, I have started to think that my testosterone levels are low. I know that need to have my hormones levels tested, but before doing that I'd like to have some questions answered.

Is my situation even related to low testosterone?

If so, can a hormone replacement therapy change my body and physical movements?

Pituitary Tumors :: Low Testosterone Levels

I had a pituitary tumor removed several years ago.   I had a follow up MRI last month and an appointment with my neurosurgeon. All is well. I did inform the Doctor I have been tired lately so he ordered blood work to check hormone levels.   Turns out my testosterone level is low. Actually looked at my bloodwork records just prior to tumor removal and all hormone levels were WAY OFF - They have all seemed to come back to normal levels with the exception of my testosterone.   My surgeon is referring me to a endocrinologist.   Working on making an appointment now. Has anyone else experienced a low testosterone level after this tumor removal and if so what course of action did you have to take? I am 46 now and I understand testosterone levels do begin to drop a bit in males once reaching the age of 40.

Low Testosterone Levels Of 9 Nmol /l - Replacement Therapy?

I am male and 27 years old. I have recently had 3 blood tests over a 3 week period as part of a medical trial and the result from all 3 tests was that my free Testosterone levels are around 9 nmol /l. I have read online that this is quite low for a person of my age.

Is this level low enough that i should consider some kind of testosterone replacement therapy? As i have always though that my levels where quite low. I have very little body hair, not even that much facial hair etc.

He quickly went out and he bought mancore testosterone replenish, and I am curious, can this effectively boost testosterone levels and help weight loss?

Gradual Weight Gain After Radical Prostatectomy - Testosterone Levels?

I had been diagnosed with prostate cancer in may ,2009. The only real option for me was to have a radical prostatectomy because of age (58 years old and retired) :-( . I had this done in july, 2009 and since then there has been no evidence of cancer return. All PSA's have been less than 0.1. I have noticed over this time period a gradual weight gain of 7 lbs. I've always watch my diet and walk 5.5 miles a day. I'm 6'0" and now weigh 189 lbs. I do have rheumatoid arthritis which has been under control (sed rate=10) for a number of years using 0.5 mg prednisone and 1 or 2 vicodin es to control pain and flareup. Why is this happening with the weight gain? Is there any evidence or articles out there to support weight gain after radical prostatectomy ? Is this related to testosterone levels?

Smoking Causing Erectile Dysfunction? Testosterone Levels Are Normal

I'm a 19 year old male, I have been smoking for about 2 years now, like 4-10 cigarettes a day.

I had my testosterone levels checked and it was 911 ng/dL, which apparently is high.

Why aren't my erections fully hard as they used to be? And why do I feel my libido has dropped?

A Dr told me it takes longer for smoking to cause ED, and he told me the problem is all in my head.

Pituitary Disorders :: High Prolactin But Normal Testosterone Levels?

I am a 27 year old male. For some time I've shown symptoms of a lack of sex drive and erectile dysfunction but as I suffer from anxiety always attributed it as the cause. I had some blood tests done privately and my results showed a slightly raised prolactin level but my testosterone seems average.

TSH 0.70 mIU/L (0.27 - 4.2) 

Prolactin 397 mIU/L (86 - 324) 

Testosterone 21.3 nmol/L (7.6 - 31.4) 

SHBG 35 nmol/L (16 - 55) 

The results seem to suggest Prolactinoma but a common side effect is low testosterone where my results prove otherwise. I'm afraid if I speak to my doctor he will tell me it is all in my head so I'm trying to make some sense of the results.

I guess the question I'm asking is is it possible to have raised Prolactin/Prolactinoma and normal looking testosterone levels? 

Should I speak to my doctor anyway?

Weight Loss Supplement Raise Testosterone Levels? Andro400

I am here to find out something more about this product called Andro400. I really need some reliable information about this subject so please don’t tell me anything you are not 100% sure it’s true.  I am a woman, my age is not important ( even if it was I wouldn’t tell  :) ). And I was wondering if I can use Andro400 for weight loss. I see many men are using it at my gym, but I don’t see any women. I wonder why is that. Is it possible that this supplement raises testosterone levels or something like that?

Can any help as to why my testosterone remains low. I am 45 and active. slightly overweight by about 25 lbs but have always been even before the adenoma and prolactin issues.

Pernicious Anaemia :: B12 - Low Cellular Levels, High Serum Levels After 5 Years Treatment

I found out I had a B12 deficiency 5 years ago.  My levels were very dangerously low at the cellular/functional level.  I was told I was near paralysis. Now, after 5 years, they are still low.  They have come up to almost borderline, but it still flags red on my tests.  My serum levels though are too high for the lab to measure! Its just not getting into my cells so it's not able to be used.  I do twice a week injections plus twice a month IV B12 and still it has taken my body 5 years just to go up a little bit. I feel the effects of the shot for about 15 hours barely then I just feel awful again, thankfully it's prescribed every 2 days.  But I don't want to do it every 2 days forever! 

In the beginning I was told it would take a month or two to get my body back to normal and then just a shot every few months for maintenance. My drs have not only increased my dose but also the frequency and STILL after all these years I'm deficient.
