I have been facing some sexual problems from the past 3-4 years. I am not able to maintain or establish erections like before, It's not like I lost them completely but there's a drastic difference. My morning erections have reduced a lot, my libido has reduced a lot. Getting an erection without movement to my penis is nearly impossible. so I thought to have my testosterone levels checked.
When I got them checked, I was told that my T levels were low. The primary care physician here wanted to see if something else is creating low T levels, so they did some additional tests and found out that prolactin levels are little over the range. They are suggesting an MRI and a referral to an endocrinologist.
I am attaching the lab results.
