While I appreciate everyone's vigilance here, let's show a little bit of grace as we fully implement r/askRPC. Always keep 1 Corinthians 13 in mind. Many are just discovering this place and we want to welcome them. We will tighten things up as we progress.

With that being said, u/GinoMan2440 please post your stats per the rules of the sub. I'm not gonna lock this right now but I can't guarantee that another mod won't.

I personally try to change my lifestyle to promote healthy outcomes. I cannot personally relate to low T. (I've never actually had mine tested.) I would try naturally for a while and then get it checked again.

No stats. This should be posted on r/askRPC

Your doctor will likely tell you you’re within the normal range - low end, but normal.

Why not give it a go for a year and try to raise it naturally?

There’s lots of habits you can employ that lend to healthier T production. Get off your ass and do some research.

Lift right.

Eat right.

Start there.

Avoid for the time being: soy, mints (all types) any vegetable oils (often made with seeds), avoid most seeds (except macadamias and brazil nuts).

Eat meat and animal fat, and more meat.

But there is something way more important. Pray to the Lord to restore you instantly, lay hands on your self, believe and ask for physical healing.

r/testosterone

Many people there with the same problems as you

Deep_Strength · 2019-09-01T23:42:29+00:00

There's lots of things that can naturally drop testosterone like stress or poor sleep. You're going to need to post way more details about your current situation in order to get better advice

I don’t know anything about TRT but if you do not have a masculine lifestyle, it makes perfect sense that your T would be low. Do you eat healthy, a lot of meat and protein? Do you lift, or exercise at all?

Here are some natural remedies that people have found helpful. As with all things, YMMV. But you are wise to try the natural route first before getting on TRT for life.

Pine Pollen Tincture - I use this myself and it's made a noticeable difference.
Organic supercritical CO2 extract of Saw Palmetto Oil / taken with Astaxanthin
Zinc - I take this, and every man should take this anyway.
Magnesium - I take this.
Vitamin D3 with K2 - I take this.
Creatine
Tribulus Terrestris - 250-750 mg daily
Boron - 3 mg daily. I take this.
Vitamin E - I take this.
Grape seed extract, Nettles (blocks enzyme which produces Estrogen)
Ashwaganda (technically Withania Somnifera)
Strength training (more weight, less reps)
High Intensity Interval training (HIIT)
Intermittent fasting - I suggest a 16/8 window
Losing weight (obviously)
Optimize your diet by eating healthy and avoiding sugar
Reduce your stress
Korean Panax Ginseng

I've tried some of these and they didn't work for me. Get the supplements dialed in, strength training, losing weight, diet first and then add one thing at a time to see what works.

In addition, this website has a wealth of info in the archives. My advice is to try to get yourself straightened around naturally for at least a year and then see where you're at.

It's great for increased circulation, relaxing the neck and upper back muscles, enhanced oxygen supply to the brain.. zinc when combined with Mg is a natural long term test booster.. stimulates increased natural production rather than adding something else in artificially.

Did you not discuss this with your doctor before consulting the internet?
