Got my results back, is this the correct bloodwork? if so is my test low?

[S123]

The paper says plasma testosterone level (XaltQ) 13.6 nmol/l (8-30). How low is my test for a 20 year old

Normal range... Your good to go

totally loaded question without enough information.

At worst, we can say you aren't the worst off we've seen.

In other words, post your complete BW up with ranges for evaluation if you will.

It wasn't full bloodwork but ill post what i got anyway. I don't know if this also effected my test levels but i was cutting and happened to get an abscess, i was taking painkillers, antibiotics; a lot of different stuff. During the time i had it i was awake for atleast 48 hours because of the pain resulting in me taking a few too many painkillers. I was sick at the hospital but they went ahead and gave me some tramadol, this helped and i was able to get some sleep. My diet was also a complete mess, i was eating a slice of bread with 1 egg a day and even that was hard to get down. About 2-3 days after i went and got my blood taken and my results test level seemed extremely low for a healthy 20 y/o.

I never thought i would have low test but i do hold fat around the abdominal and love handles. I also have wide hips. My strength also increases very slowly at a rate were I'm following the correct protocols when it comes to building muscle and I'm being left behind by people who half arse their training and diet. It's taken me a long time to get were i am naturally and I've come along way and bettered myself, i will not resort to AAS as i believe it's not the correct route to take.

I'm going back for another blood test and this should let me know if i do generally have low test levels. Below is a list of the bloodwork. It's not full blood work.

plasma testosterone level (Xaltq) 13.6 nmol/l (8-30)
Serum total bilirubin level (xaeru) 11 umol/L (2-21)
Serum alanine aminotransferase level 34.0 iu/L (<= 40.0)
Serum alkaline phosphatase level 286.0 iu/L (70-300)
Serum albumin level 49.0 g/L (35-50)
serum inorganic phosphate level 0.89 mmol/L (0.8 -1.5)
Serum vitamin b12 level 548.0 ng/L (211-911)
serum ferritin level 150.0 ng/ml (10-322)

Thanks for taking time to read.

First, for a 20 yo your testosterone levels are low and reflect a man in his 60's...you know that's not right.

Yes, the drugs and illness, and even combined, could all have caused a suppression in your HPTA.

Were any of the meds you were taking have steroids in them? Many use steroids especially pain killers and anti inflammatory meds.

The labs you posted don't tell us what we need to know.

Once you are totally healthy and off the meds for some time get retested to validate.

My guess te serum levels will rebound.

Tramadol 100mg, anadin, ibuprofen 200mg, painkillers 500mg. used all of these while i was sick. If my levels remain the same after i've been tested, should i see a doctor for further evaluation.

Yes, you do. You need to see a hormonal specialist and one who understands TRT in men.

Read kel's sticky on finding a TRT Doc and in there you will find the labs you need to make an assessment.

It's not effecting me in everyday life, just when i go to the gym. I'm gonna see if i can find an hormonal specialist within my area, even though i may not feel any effects at the moment. I may have problems in the future if i do nothing about it.
