You need a new doctor. The are “many” ways to increase test without using steroids. That being say you need to have your estrogen(estradiol) checked. Your “absolute” free and serum testosterone values are not nearly as important as the estrogen to testosterone ratio. High estrogen is a double whammy on a man.it shutdowns test production and it competes with test for receptor sites in the body.
I had blood work down 2 months ago and my total serum test was 1100. My doctor said “You are out of the range high.why are you here”? I said that may be so but my dick is dead,dead,dead! I went to another doctor and he ran test for just about all the main hormones. My estradiol was over 100 and my SHBG was through the roof. This doctor said he likes to keep ratios at least 25 to 1. My ratio was closer to 10 to 1.
I started taking an aromatase inhibitor to cut the estradiol level down. My estradiol levels as of last Monday tested at 25. Dick gets hard when the wind blows( I’m 45 years old) and the ole lady is afraid to bend over in my line of sight.
Trust me bro, you need to stay on those doctors until they get you some help. Good luck!
