Please check your oral body temperature when you first wake up and also in the mid-afternoon and post here.
If you have not been using iodized salt, that is a problem.

You are too young for age related decline in T, so we need to treat low-T as a symptom and find the cause.

You need these followup labs:
LH/FSH [not just LH]
E2
prolactin
fT3
fT4 [not T3, T4]
DHEA-S
AM cortisol [at 8AM please]
fasting glucose
fasting cholesterol [can be too low]
vit-D25

Given your low T levels, these are very good:
RBC 5.44 4.6-6
HGB 15.2 14-18
HCT 46.5 14-57

So you started TRT already? If so, its too late to check LH/FSH to find out if primary or secondary.
