I had two different blood tests this year. Unfortunately I didn't get T tested in Jan.
Age: 26
Sex: M
I have been peating since last fall. I have a history of lymphoma (in 2013), so my main health goal is trying not to get cancer again. My secondary goal is increasing T levels. I've been using gonadin and pansterone on and off since of Feb this year. I also take TyroMix in an attempt to improve thyroid levels.
What stands out to you? What levels do you think could be better?
I've very happy that I was able to reduce prolactin from 11 to 8 so far!
The FSH is kind of high. This is what the Dr noted.

@Hans Do you think these T levels reasonable for my age or lower end of normal?

The level of FSH (gonadotrophins) is slightly high, though the testosterone level is normal. Higher gonadotropin levels, with low or even normal testosterone levels, suggest that hypogonadism may be present (meaning the testes are working hard to produce enough testosterone). Causes of elevated gonadotrophin levels include side effects from chemotherapy or radiation, infection (e.g. mumps) and the effects of some medication (e.g. cimetidine). Signs of hypogonadism might include decrease libido (sexual desire) and erectile problems, decreased body mass, sparse hair growth amongst others. I suggest you have a word with your doctor about this finding if you have any concerns.
