After waiting for almost six months, I finally met with an endocrinologist who was able to refer me for a more thorough panel of bloodwork. Here are the results (will update the ones that are still pending as soon as I get them). Although my testosterone levels are within range, they still seem very low for my age. However, what I’m really concerned about is the jump in TSH to 3.86. It was 2.0 during my bloodwork back in May. I’m hoping that @KSman can jump in here and help interpret these numbers. I should note that my endocrinologist had me stop taking all natural supplements for this bloodwork. The only thing that I continued taking was fish oil. I have another bloodwork appointment in two weeks to retest Testosterone, LH, FSH, prolactin and PSA.
