I got my blood test results back which showed my testosterone level at 320 ng/dl . Dr. said it’s normal but I think thats very low. I am only 20 years old and workout regularly. Doing some research I read that physically active 20 year old should be between 800 to 1200 ng/dl.
So I guess genetically I have low testosterone. Does anyone know of a way of raising the body’s natural production of testosterone without using steroids? My diet is clean, I eat alot of protein, zinc supplements etc… Is there anything that would REALLY noticeably double or more my testosterone levels without steroids. Theres alot of supplements that claim to but I dont really trust them. Any help would be appreciated. thanks

No, there isn’t.
TRIBEX and Alpha Male work well for me, giving a consistent 200 point rise after a week to ten days, but nothing is going to double your Testosterone unless you are very low.

You say a consistent… have you had it checked multiple times? just curious.
does AM, give much difference over TRIBEX for you?
I’ve heard that tests can vary pretty widely, so to get a real idea I think you have to get tested multiple times.
I was also under the impression that your ratio of free to total was more important than just total.
That being said, I’m a physically active 19 year old and while my numbers are higher than yours, I’m well below 800 and don’t think I’m suffering from low testosterone.
have the same problem. i got my levels checked at 19 and i cant remember what they were, had them checked 3 times, all were about the same and were probably 1/4 of what they should be… so i think around what you have. i would call and ask, but the doctor was a fucking prick so i didnt pay my bill and now they wont tell me haha. im only 22 and still feel like i suffer from it. plan to get them checked again very soon so we’ll have to follow up with each other
anyway, the best ways to naturally boost your test is:
-eat more fatty foods
-take zma
-lift heavier weights at the 3-5 rep scheme
and make sure you do many compounds
-eat veggies like broccoli to help reduce
estrogen levels
-have alot of sex
-limit your booze
-eat more fish, up your omega 3 intake, as
well as any other high protein food: meat,
poultry, etc.
-sleep as much as you can
everything i could remember off the top of my head, just look around and youll find a ton of pages thatll give you natural ways to do this. ive read studies where most men dont gain a significant testosterone boost from things like tribulus, it just mostly boosts libido and gives a euphoric state of mind… BUT there arent really any thorough tests on this that i could find.

I’ve been tested during 2 TRIBEX cycles and 1 Alpha Male cycle so far, although I’ve used these products many more times.
Testosterone increases were very close to the same with Alpha Male in comparison to TRIBEX (blue), although I like the added effect of Carbolin 19 in Alpha Male.
Find an endocrinologist or urologist with head not up ass.
Ask said PHD for exogenous testosterone therapy and an AI/SERM if needed.
In all seriousness though, besides aforementioned steps you should be sure to clean up your lifestyle if that’s a factor. Get rid of the booze, sleep more, eat better (ie: healthier), etc. if you aren’t already doing those things.
