For a 30 year old guy your T level looks low. I would push for a higher T level number with the dr. My energy level went way up after starting Androgel.

At your age, you need to be looking for causes where low T is the symptom. Avoid T tunnel vision.

Please read the advice for new guys sticky for suggested other issues.

You could have weight and lethargy from a thyroid problem. Most guys who land her do have thyroid problems. Read the thyroid basics sticky and eval your iodine intake and body temperatures and post back here.

Labs: You should get E2 and prolactin tested.

Thyroid should be TSH, fT3, fT4 [not T3, T4] - but wait until you get body temps posted and read the stickies.

Low cortisol can also lead to lethargy.

There is a sticky for finding a TRT doc.
