I went to the doctor for erectile dysfunction and he ordered a T test. My T came back at 248 in a 300-1197 range. I’m waiting to hear back about my next steps. I don’t have some of the normal symptoms…my main ones are a general lack of drive, I’m always tired, and my libido has fallen off quite a bit. Despite eating decent and training often, I am 50 pounds overweight and I can’t get the scale to move. I am strong…I build muscle looking at weights, Solid and muscular under the fat. I’m built like a brick and at 205 pounds I had 12% BF. I also have been hairy since puberty and can grow most of a beard, with a couple patches. I’m posting because im confused and the low T hit me out of nowhere. Just looking for some advice and encouragement. I’m honestly terrified of Gyno, but I also am tired of feeling like im barely living life.
