    Check ouit these numbers and let me know what you think

    Went to a Endocrinologist and the numbers came out as follows:

    36 Year old male:

    Total Testosterone : 437

    % Free Testosterone: 1.5

    Free Testosterone, Serum: 66

    IGF: 174

    Doc refused to put me on a low dose of test and said these levels are very normal, even though I feel week and very limited sex drive.

    those numbers look to fall within normal range, they usually wont do anything until your total test falls under 300. And your free test is average, I think 1-2% is the norm. The Dr. is not being a dick, he just cant go putting you on something for the hell of it. They have an ethics law they need to abide by. If I were you I'd be happy with those results and take advantage of natural means to raise testosterone levels .

    you may THINK you have low sex drive because you were used to busting a nut 3x/day on test. So now normal doesnt feel normal, I've been there

    Yeah, there's not too much you can do with the doctor when your numbers are at that range. I don't know how the HRT Clinics would view it, but I know most mainstream doctors won't do anything unless it's a lot lower.

    Looks like you had a source before - what is stopping you this time from self medicating your trt? Guess you are around 38 now? What are your stats?
