Testosterone and Depression

[kelkel]

Did you test anything other than hormone levels? Many things can cause low T that are fixable. Hypothyroidism being a big culprit. When it comes to low T and depression there are many studies on the topic. In many cases correcting the low T alleviates the symptoms of depression.

Best of luck!

^very true. plus other issues can cause low T 'symptoms' that are not because of actual low T

So that's the interesting thing about low T, from a biological perspective. Even if someone has blood serum levels that are considered "normal," they can still be suffering from the effects of low T. From what I understand, it's not just a matter of how much testosterone your endocrine system is producing but the overall physiological impact of your respective testosterone levels.

That's what I am hoping for. The author of article stated that his depressive symptoms lifted just 24 hours after his first injection. To be clear, he was careful to state that it was not a miracle cure by any stretch but that it was a solid step in the right direction.
