370 is not very low but it is still possible you may have a deficiency. A formal assessment of this is required. Testosterone levels are recommended to be checked in the morning between 7 am to 10 am. There are other tests along with it such as FSH, LH and prolactin amongst others that are usually done too. An endocrinologist in hyderabad is the best person you need to see to evaluate this systematically. I know there are a few in hyderabad. Look for MD DM qualifications after their name. Once it is clear that you likely have a true testosterone deficiency then the specialist endocrinologist will consider treatment.
