Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.

Your testoterone level 401 is slightly at lower level. Testoterone level decreases by age.

You should also try to get your testosterone levels read in the morning if at all possible. Male testosterone levels peak in the morning and then steadily decline until late evening.

If you have any questions I will be happy to answer.
Please close the query if you have no other questions.

Wishing you good health...
Regards.
Dr Saurabh Gupta.
