I’m 20 exactly almost 21. My levels were tested at 260 unbelievably low. And I’ve felt it forever and glad I found this out. I could never lose weight unless I literally starved myself and could never gain muscle no matter how disciplined I am. Can’t wait to start treatment and see my life improve

I hopped on TRT at 25 years old. I tried enclomiphene to boost my 367ng level but it didn’t work. TRT is a god send. Don’t be afraid of long term side effects- men die young anyways. Would you rather live 80 years as a fat fuck watching nfl all day or would you rather optimize and live life to the fullest for potentially 5 less years? Low T is detrimental to your health, much more than that of TRT.

Selfishly, the best part of this video is finding out the forum is free

I went from 334 to 960 in around 3 months all natural no TRT. This book should be essential reading for all men. Written by a 50s guy with natural T levels of a 20s guy Complete guide to testosterone by james Francis

I’m 24, I tested at 320. This year, my hair has thinned, my weight has skyrocketed, and I also have libido issues. I’ve been in great shape for a long time, I’ve lost all motivation to goto the gym because I’m physically so fatigued, i couldn’t even play 9 holes at golf. My doctor says I’m fine, and there’s nothing wrong. But truthfully I don’t think so. I don’t have a specialist near by who can take my insurance and if they do they are a month+ out. I just am so lost at the moment and I’ve been on every damn vitamin in the planet, I literally meal prep, and I also drink plenty of water as well. Interestingly, my fathers blood work came out at 258, at 56 years old. So I’m 1/2 his age and almost have the same level of testosterone. Interesting.

Phthalates in our environment from plastics have been shown to negatively effect testosterone. The fact that it has measurable effects on animals as well as humans suggests this is significant. I'm not ignoring the fact that most men make poor lifestyle choices with diet, sleep, and lack of exercise, but this is definitely a factor if you're otherwise healthy.

I'm an older lifter and to me a lot of this low T in younger guys is there jobs and lifestyle. If you have a sedentary job, take 10 minute breaks to go walk or climb stairs. Do that part of your lunch break also. Yes there are some guys that have a medical issue. But I see a lot of young guys on KZfaq. Saying they need TRT but they are screwing up their bodies. Trying to stay lean 365 days a year to get girls and followers. Partying, not sleeping, eating like crap. All these things crash your bodies ability to produce testosterone and build muscle. In the gym work on progression. Meaning try to add a rep to at least 1 set, each workout. And do the big compound lifts first in your workouts, in whatever rep range you like. You can build strength and muscle with low reps or high reps. Don't do curls first. Do pull-ups or chin-ups first. Don't do leg extensions first, do squats or leg presses. 💪🏾

I'm 25. Test was 520. Went down to 470 after losing body fat in a low deficit, gaining some muscle, etc. Life went to shit. Feel like shit. Body far now is going up. Was at 30+, got to 15, back at 17. Got on TRT. Not spending the best years of my life feeling like shit. Buuuuut probably going to come off. Something about jabbing myself doesn't feel right although ive already seen some benefits. GP put me on antidepressants which made everything worse, said i need vitamin D when i already supplement with vitamin D and a good amount of vitamins as is for months.

Can you reach out to Derek at MPMD? He has a clinic and stuff like this may flag as having an underlying issue.

I was at the same age with the same numbers as this guy. I responded to clomid, but decided to go on hgc and test (I let my estradiol do its own thing, no ai) and feel great 6-7 years later. My thyroid was fine (tested ft3, ft4 too etc), cortisol 4x day panel was fine, etc etc. No root cause could be determined. Idk, probably shit in the environment

I just found out that my bioavailable test was at 102 and my total was 488 my shit is way low. I eat healthy and train regularly with weights. I also smoke unfortunately and am on Suboxone but my doctor said the smoking and Suboxone shouldn't affect it. I'm trying to get into a specialist but alot of them are backed up and can't get patients in a reasonable time frame but I'm still trying

Just tested and got 157 ng/dL. Tested 5 other times. One time it was around 550 but the other 4 times it was in the 200’s and 100’s. I was diagnosed with varicocele when I was 12/13 years old and nothing was done about it. I’m 26 now and every urogloist I talk to practically mocks me and tells me it could never be my varicocele since it’s apparently small. I try to explain that yes it’s small in the morning because I’ve been sleeping horizontally for 8 hours but at night it gets a lot bigger. I truly think my varicocele is causing my low t but the idiot urologists I’m dealing with just mock me

Im 24 and if for some reason I had low test the last thing I would do is get TRT. Look at your sleeping habits, diet, nutrition, and how much you physically exercise first. Make sure all of that is optimized and then if you still have symptoms go to a doctor and get your test done. Most men don’t have pituitary gland issues. Most men live shitty lifestyles and don’t optimize the best years of their life. If you exercise and eat right I bet most people would naturally get higher test.

I believe this trend of low testosterone in young lifters today stems from high cotrisol levels. Most of these guys have low totals but their free levels are normal. This shows that it's more a lifestyle thing rather than an underlying issue. Why do these young lifters have high cortisol?? Simple answer. They're all pre-workout junkies. All these lifters are hooked on these pre-workout supps that have 400mgs of caff per scoop. THis amount of caff elevated adrenaline and cortisol so much, and the most messed up part is that these guys all think these supps are a crucial part of their supp stack. I'm not against caffeine or pre-workout at all. But if you take it, don't depend on it. I personally drink a cup of coffee a day and take pre only on those days i need to train and didn't have enough sleep the night prior. When I do take caffeine, I have some sort of a cortisol blocker with it. This could be theanine or ashwaghanda. Lastly, I believe there's this weird trend about testosterone, where the fitness and health industry want us young men to be obsessed with it so that we can go on trt. I predict in the next 10-15 yrs, young guys on trt will be as common as young women on birth control. Not to go into consipiracy territory, but the idea of society having a control on our hormones and ability to reproduce is super fishy.

Hop on trt . Young men are walking around with the testosterone of 70 year old men 🤦🏿‍♂️

I’m 26, and my total test levels came back at 180 ng/dl. I only slept about 6hrs during the day of the test. & I tested at 1pm. I know this wasn’t the ideal way to test but 180ng/dl is still too low regardless right ? Should I expect to to get normal or high normal if I get enough sleep during day of test and re-test in the morning?

The normal ranges have nothing to do with quality of life, obviously there’s a world of difference between 320 and 850 ng/dL. There’s a saying, if your medical problem isn’t in your doctors top ten greatest hits, your experience will most likely be a bad one.

I’m 18 low t like idk how 😭 I work out everyday not really fat just skinny fat and I can’t even lose it and I got get turned on when tryna do the deed😭😭😭

Can we get a doctor for test from the covid shot to see if it has effects

I'm 72 year old and my test level is 690 and all natural. I don't understand how these young guys are bottoming out like that.

When I test next year if I have lower then 400 I’m juicing hard af

So what if it comes down to something as simple as something in your water causes your body to have low testosterone or caffeine stimulants something there’s a problem there’s a reason that’s causing men to drop their testosterone let’s start filling the pothole gentlemen let’s find the problem putting Band-Aids over the wound
