Could I be prescribed testosterone?

[bobbyeggertonson]

I have a feeling I might have low testosterone. I'm 21 and I've been training consistently since I was 16. Since that time I've only gained about 12-15 pounds. Now, I know that you're thinking "eat,train, eat, eat" but that's not it. I've been researching bodybuilding ever since I started. I know how to train and I know how to eat. This shit is pretty much my life.

But, here is the REAL problem. Since about the age of twenty or so I noticed my sex drive start to diminish and it seems to be getting worse. I barely think about sex and I don't have morning wood that often. I recently started seeing this girl whom I'm very attracted to, but we haven't had sex yet because I either don't feel like it or I can't keep an erection.

Not only that, but I've noticed that I have a small bit of fluid discharge from my nipple every now and then. This might not have anything to do with it, but it seems necessary to mention.

So, if I told my DR. this would he be inclined to prescribe or recommend something for me? I can handle being a hard gainer, but my sex life is really starting to get in my head.

maybe viagra, probably not test. but talk to them, if its that serious, have your levels checked, thats the only thing that can tell you and earn you a test script

If youve only gained 12-15lbs in 5 years, than maybe your not training hard enough! Or smart enough!

Sometimes the answer is not how HARD we are training, but how SMART we train!

Dunno much about testosterone, but id take a close look at my training program and my diet (at least 6 meals a day)

[bodybuilder1107]

have levels checked but usually get a small dose prescribed anyway

your lactating. have you cycled before

[bobbyeggertonson]

No, I have never cycled before.

[T_Own]

can't that just happen naturally post-puberty

[burnin69]

you should see a doctor regardless

[Oki-Des]

Because you stated your sex drive is non existent, no one on this board is going to be able to offer you the help you need unless they direct you to go to a doctor. You may need to see a urologist for ED, but you may want to have your blood taken and have your test levels checked as well. Just because Cialis may be able to override your ED problems, there may be other issues you should deal with now. I am 38 and I had my testosterone levels checked and they were lower than my 74 year old father. Although we are both in an older age group than you, I wish I would have been checked years ago as I may have been able to have test prescribed or something else if needed then.
Good Luck.

Lactating happens after reaching puberty. You are probably still growing Cause I know I lactated at around 15 or so last not long and after that my Natural test lvls went sky high. If you cant keep a hard on or cant get it up just get some Horny Goat Weed.

you dont know much about anything, please dont respond

Get blood work done with your doctor, if he sees any of your hormones are low, and its affecting your quality of life, he will script you hrt.

[cutting_king]

I agree with everyone elses responses here, we have a lot of steroid experts on the board but not many certified doctors. And even if we did have its got to be nearly impossible to diagnose something like this without blood tests being done. I'd say get it checked out by a doc and once you know what the problem is you can then look at viable treatments

[bobbyeggertonson]

Thanks for the help guys. I bought some Cia from Lion to see if that will help for now, but I'm going to make an appointment with my Dr asap.

[T_Own]

tbh, i wouldn't start taking anything until you see the doctor

[Shurik]

hey i have the same problem as you with no sex drive and I'm going to the doctor on monday to get my levels checked too so go do that before you try any of that viagra stuff.

I had been slowly gettting weaker over several years and doctors could not find out what was wrong. After a car wreck I was given a scan and it was discovered that I had osteopenus. They ran more tests and discovered that my testosterone level was very low. I was given Andro gel (in 2003) and the dosage was increased over years, but my bones continued to get worse, my testosterone level was still low, and I was very tired and was having more trouble thinking. I also shrunk 2" inches in height over the last 8 or 9 years.

Three weeks ago I was given my first shot of Testosterone CYO 200MG/ML (one ML), and I gave myself the second shot this last Wednesday. It hasn't done much for my sex drive, but I feel more energic. I also am more concerned (at 56 yrs. old) about my bones than anything else. All of the above has been done under the care of several doctors.

Good luck

If you're that worried about it why don't you go to the doctor instead of coming online and asking people that can't do anything about it?

just a thought. I think a medical professional would be the first route to explore. See what he says.
