    28 years old with low free test levels.

    10.8 to be exact. From what I am reading that is on the very low end of the ref ranges. The doctor told me that is normal, but I think that is bull. Any opinions or advice would be much appreciated. Im not sure where to go from here. Thanks in advance.

    Here is all of my blood work guys.











    My symptoms include complete lack of motivation. Im tired all the time no matter how good I eat or the amount of sleep I get. It takes me forever to heal up when I workout, and I feel drained for days after. It never use to be like this for me even after extreme workouts. Just normal soreness and fatigue. I have also noticed I have trouble concentrating on task lately. Is any of this making any sense?

    What is your total T, SHBG, thyroid, and E2? Low free T by itself doesn't reveal much, especially for a 28 y/o. Low free T could also be a transitory thing. Overtraining for a week, having a really stressful period in your life, etc. This is why you need to look at all your numbers as a whole.

    People.....like bass said.....what are the corresponding ranges?

    Throwing out numbers means absolutely zero without the included ranges.
