18 year old Total t in the 100s HELP!! (updated)

[lion12]

So I posted a few days ago that my total was was 136 ng/dl. I freaked out and told my doctor I want more test done, this time in the AM.

My total t is 196 ng/dl (expected increase due to morning testing)
References:

estradiol is < 20

Cortisol is 23.3 (AM) AM 4.3 -22

free testosterone - pending

T4 6.6 (4.5-10.9)

TSH 4.83 (.51- 6.27)

Free thyroxine 1.13 (.89 -1.76)

Prolactin 17.6 (3.3- 19.7)

t3 free 3.42 (2.3 - 4.2)

I am visiting an endo tomm, what should I tell him.

SHBG 9 nmol/ L (low) (13-71)

Check your Thyroid and get every possible blood test for it.

Your TSH is very high suggesting Hypothyroidism which can and will cause Hypogonadism.

Also, you need to get your pituitary gland checked as well.

A man you age with serum levels that low suggest pathology and you need to get diagnosed correctly...just don't throw Testosterone at it till you find out what's wrong with you.

Can you add the lab ranges to these assays by using the "edit" button?

Thanks.

Can you post ranges?? Tests vary depending on the scale used.

Can low or high thyroid cause low test level; either directly or indirectly?? If so how?

I'm no expert, but if ur thyroid is playing up that can result in low test.

I just had my bloods done as I'm experienci.g low test, thyroid was top on his list to check. Slog with a few other things like prostate etc.

Guys, the free test came back as a ratio of total test to shgb. It is a quarter or midrange depending on if you look 13-18 or 19-25. My shgb is very low, what does this mean.

[lion12]

So my free t results are WITHIN range. 64 (01.-250) depending on the age.
