Recent blood work returned t levels of 320 and free of 4.04. My doctor is in a rush to put me on trt.I still have great strength and muscle mass is good. I can perform in bed but I will say libido is minimal. I am a 47 yo male. Is trt necessary and what else can I try first?
Testosterone is an important sexual hormone in the body. At 47 years of age the average testosterone level is 606 and free testosterone is 9.1 and therefore your levels are below the mean. You might be able to perform in bed and the low libido is because your testosterone is about half that of an average male of 45 years age.
You can try and improve your testosterone by following methods Maintain a healthy weight Exercise regularly. Take multivitamins and minerals. Sleep for 7 -8 hours every day. Eat healthy foods.
