Other than the decreased interest in sex, most of the ones you X'd are pretty common among all people. [/ QUOTE ] so everyone is tired 90% of the day (I think the only time I'm not tired is in the gym)? This has been going on for about 3-4 years now and worries me, I'll know soon |

Re: naturally low test levels
If I think hard enough I could probably put an x next to 5 of those. Howeverm, I am not a hypochondriac so I just don't care.
If you really believe something is up then yah check it out and let us know. Hope all is well.

Re: naturally low test levels
Definately worth checking out, but those are also all side effects of depression, which you say you have also. [img]/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
Good luck with this man!

Re: naturally low test levels
maybe you are stressed mentally? It might be a good idea to try some relaxtion techinques to see if they help out. I had some similar expirences and as soon as I didnt worry about it it went. Good luck and let us know how you get on.

Re: naturally low test levels
I used to worry about this as well, as I have some of the symptoms...
x- Lethargy - Increased Abdominal Fat x- Lack of Strength - Lack of sexual desire - Partial or weak erections during intercourse x- Fatigue x- Depression x- Irritability / Moodiness x- Lack of concentration The main thing that I was/am worried about is my lack of upper-body strength and my moodiness/depression. But everyone I've talked to says that my lack of upper-body strength is probably because I haven't been seriously lifting weights before I was 16. This may be true, but those people definetly aren't experts on this stuff, and I still think that I should have more strength at my age. |

Re: naturally low test levels
I think going for bloodwork is a good idea. It might reveal something other than low test. Hopefully, all turns out well.

Re: naturally low test levels
"naturally low test levels" - presumably you have had a test already? What is it that you are low in?
Those symptoms could indicate depression or at least stress (maybe at home and/or with studies).. but before you get worried, be open to a few simpler possibilities: * Low in Iron (up your red meat - this worked great for me) * Poor diet (particularly PWO protocol) - leaving you to not recover properly and feel those above symptoms * Your age - at this time your body is trying to adapt and grow so your hormones could just be flying a little.. Those symptoms, in extreme cases, could also indicate low-testosterone but this is rare and difficult to both measure and effectively treat hope this helps
