    Someone else will be able to comment on your levels, but if you are 19 and your doctor says you are good...then you probably are.

    That is very low for somebody who is 19 though. What kind of doctor performed this test? I suggest you visit an endocrinologist if you haven't and get checked out.

    it is low normal according to your ranges, but numbers don't mean anything unless symptoms are present... it will also take you a long time to find a clinic/sympatheic doc who will do trt to a 19 year old though believe me.

    What time of the day did you have the test drawn?

    Have you ever done AAS/PH's? (I hope not)

    I just saw you did do two cycles of PH's. This is an example of why people recommend guys to wait till they are at least 25 before cycling.

    I'd talk to a doctor and tell him your symptoms and what you've taken.

    I got my test done around 10:30 am

    I will see my doctor at the end of the month for a physical...Should i ask him about taking 12.5mg of clomid ED for about 6 weeks?

    I have lots of clomid for this reason...just didnt want to start anything without consulting a professional.

    I dont have any symtoms thought? I have a high libido..and not to much of a problem gaining muscle.

    This is true, but the doctors should be looking for another cause that they can treat rather than just putting him on TRT.

    Treating the cause rather than the symptom may prevent additional problems down the road.

    EG: Secondary hypogonadism caused by a mass blocking the pituitary gland. If you treat the symptoms (low T), then great that solves that symptom. However, if the mass turns out to be a massive tumor, it will go unnoticed for some time.
