Test Low but "within range" - Blood Work

[jonsal]

Looks like my test is low, but technically within range. I have been feeling pretty tired, low motivation, no sex drive, etc.

Are these numbers low for a 30 year old male?

Total test is on the low side---- my lab says low at 325... Other labs have different levels of what they call low.
I had a 275 Total and it got me a script from the doc...

dude, that's low! Did you take any SARM's? Do you have a drinking problem? Probably need a re-test and if it still low-you'll need to visit an Endo

I cycled a couple years ago. Didn't exactly hit post cycle therapy like i should have. Not sure if that made a difference. I have had a bad drinking habit for about 10 years. Its not massively out of control, but i guess that's just a matter of perspective.

When is a good time to re-test?

At 30 years old, my TT was at 240 or so. From 21-28 I would get wasted drunk pretty much every Friday/Saturday night and eat whatever pills I could get my hands on. I would say that played a huge part in my low results, along with never doing a proper pct until I found Meso a couple years ago.

Try doing your test as soon as you can after you wake up. You'll find your test levels will be considerably higher than the result you got now

Thanks guys for responses. One question comes to mind, why do i want to know when i will have my highest T levels? I mean, if the majority of the time its low woulnt that be the concerning part?

No bc TT will always drop throughout the day for everyone. The diagnosis of hypogonadism is determined by testing your peak levels.
