I’ve just got my testosterone results back and the nurse said they where normal at 25?
Can anyone explain to me what the scale is and is 25 normal or just normal for doctors as I’ve heard docs can except a low reading as normal ,Thanks

I assume she is refering to 25 nmol. In which case that is a good value, but best to get a copy of the results to make sure.

That’s 25 nmol/l, which is the same as 720 ng/dL in the units most used on these forums. 720 ng/dL is a very good testosterone level to have. It is above average for a guy in his 20s, so you have nothing to worry about.
I’m confused… you started TRT before or after your test results? As others have stated, your levels are very good… why shut down your own production?
Need to check e2 and SHBG. Having TT of 720 means nothing if its all bounded up or converting to estrogen. Do not jump to conclusions so past alot of guys who have high SHBG also may have TT naturally of over 800. I have seen as high as 1300 !!

No, you don’t need TRT. Do yourself a huge favour and stop using the testosterone cream right away, else you are just going to create lots of future health problems and dependencies. Your natural testosterone is already excellent.

I guess he has not stated any symptoms so we assume he is feeling good.
