I also have really low sperm volume, I forgot to mention that and idk why this could happen in correlation with my hormon levels or other possible issues
Maybe I’m right then. Maybe your balls are atrophied and not responding adequately to gonadotropins.
Your symptoms are in line with poor androgenic activity, and imo I’d lean into thinking it’s some degree of primary hypogonadism based on high LH, high FSH, and low sperm count.
If I was in your position, I would do the following in this order:
- good sleep hygiene
- 3.5 hours of cardio a week
- resistance training at least twice a week
- eat clean (lots of fruit, lots of vegetables, nuts, seeds, legumes etc. All are protective against low T symptoms)
- take a multivitamin. Include 4000iu of vitamin D, 400iu of vitamin e. D and E help low T symptoms
- rule out other causes such as psychological disturbances, sleep apnea, hba1c, thyroid issues, liver issues, kidney issues, full blood count issues, blood pressure
- do pelvic floor exercises to help ED and ejaculation
- take 5-20mg tadalafil a day to help ED (also protects against future ED)
If, after you have done the above, you still have low T symptoms, the docs don’t help you, and you’re unsure of what to do next, you may want to consider pharmacological intervention, such as:
- testosterone
- DHT derivatives
- HCG
- doxazosin (can help ED)
- aromatase inhibitors
- pt141
- caber or pramipexole
I found that, despite having normal T, I needed supraphysiological T to alleviate my symptoms. I suspect I have poor androgen sensitivity. It took DHT levels 16x the upper reference range for me to start getting torso hairs, and even now I don’t have many. Sparse armpit hair. Poor beard growth. If I drop my T levels to 1500ng/dl I become asexual.
Other than hypertension which I’ve had since before I started testosterone, I’ve had no side effects from any of the androgens I’ve taken. No MPB, no acne, no gyno, no elevated FBC (it’s actually lower now than pre-T). Cholesterol is better than ever. If I had normal androgen sensitivity I’d be getting side effects (and also be swole), but instead I’m taking high doses of drugs no one should touch just for me to have better biomarkers than ever before.
