Avatar m tn I have been very healthy and exercise regularly. I had my testosterone levels checked and the results are unclear to me. The results were: Testosterone was 3.0 on a range 1.7-6.3 ng/ml) SHBG was 37 on a range of 13-90 nmol/L Free Testosterone was 56 on a range of 30-140 pg/mL Are these levels on the lower end or normal?. I would like to be on a prescription to be at the upper level for my age.
Avatar m tn He has a very strong sex drive and gets erections with Viagra or Levitra. Elevating your testosterone to normal levels improves cholesterol, heart and bone health--so I am told. I suggest you discuss it with your doctor. If you are concerned about a low sex drive or erectile dysfunction it will also help that. I wish you well.
Avatar n tn I am 56. Recent testosterone count 483. Count too high for testosterone therapy. My sex drive was very low, "just didn't care" and no night time erections. I avoided having sex with my wife. Soft erections that I and my wife worked on...got hard and had good sex. A cousin suggested Maca root. I have been taking raw powdered Maca root for 30 days. Its has done wonders.
Avatar f tn DH had his bloodwork done the other day and he has low testosterone still. Haven't gotten the results of the sperm analysis yet, but I assume it's going to be low. What are the options to treat this since testosterone replacement would most likely make him temporarily sterile. Been ttc for almost a year and we keep having this issue.
Avatar n tn I think if it was your appendix, when that lets go you will know about it, been there and dont want to go there again, and if the pain is down that low I think the gallbladder would be out of it. You need to have a think of what you were doing just before the pain come on, if you were straining then it could just be muscles? Been to a doctor yet, let him have a poke around.
Avatar m tn my husband has low T and he has been taking injection for a couple of months, yesterday he said while he was working he heard this buzzing sound coming from his "penis" so he first though it was from the cell phone, so he took that out and the buzzing sound was still there. He said he started to go to Emergency Room because he works at a hospital, but he thought they would put him in a stray jacket. Help, is there a logical answer for what he is experiencing.
Avatar m tn t know why my penis keeps erect whenever I feel sleepy and fall asleep? How can it affect my long terms health? and How can I fix it if it is problem? p/s: it keeps erect many hours at night and morning. It starts about 1 hour after I fall asleep and goes back to normal after i woke up. It also erect whenever i fall asleep. Thanks.
Avatar m tn Have you had your testosterone levels checked? Vitamin d deficiency and low testosterone go hand in hand. If you are vitamin d deficient there is a good chance you have low testosterone and this would explain why you have lost the zazz down there.
689860 tn?1238718032 What seems to work best to raise your hormone levels to where they need to be are WEEKLY injections of between .5 and 1 cc of testosterone. Be sure your doctor monitors your levels monthly including your estradiol (estrogen) levels. When your proper testosterone levels are achieved, continue to monitor your estradiol levels monthly for up to 6 months. If they rise too high, a drug that is normally used for females with breast cancer called Arimidex will take care of the problem.
Avatar m tn I can only comment on one matter and that is that testosterone levels and libido are not related. Your testosterone level may be normal, or in your case high, while your libido is low. In my case my testosterone was normal yet I had low libido. A low libido can be related to several non testosterone causes, including depression (whih you mention), other medication, anxiety issues, erectile dysfunction etc. If I were you I would (in the following order): 1.

Avatar n tn You can get reinfected form your partner if you are sexually active and in that case both of you should get checked and treated simultaneously, or abstain from sex till you are cured fully if your partner is not infected. You can also get reinfection, if you are living in a mold infested house. You have to keep your private parts dry and ensure that the clothes you wear are also clean and dry. Living in a moist environment can also lead to recurring fungal infection.
Avatar m tn Hemorrhoids are not uncommon and most can be treated with over the counter medications and a change in diet. Getting more fiber may help and so will stool softeners when you need them.
Avatar n tn My Dad a fall and was diagnose with stroke. Right hand and body cannot move..Face was out of shape.
Avatar n tn But, the trouble with supplements is that you can overdose very esily, unless used judiciously or prescribed by a doctor. For instance, Viatmin A and E are easily available from our daily food and being fat soluble, they get stored in our tissues and overdosing is very easy. I do not know, why the Companies are packing such easily availble vitamins along with some other difficult to get nutrients like zinc, omega3 or B12. So, while taking supplements, always do consult the doctor.
Avatar n tn my husband has been having dizzy spells and visions.
Avatar n tn I am extremely depressed and am suffering with hypothyroidism, low testosterone, too much estrogen, high cholesterol and low Vitamin D what is wrong with me? I originally thought that everything here is linked to depression from stress and anxiety so I started taking Lexapro for the depression. But my wife thinks that maybe all of these things are linked to a health issue. About 11 months ago I was diagnosed with high cholesterol and low thyroid, so I am taking red rice yeast and .
