Has anyone ever had their testosterone checked?

I've gotten it checked. At 28, I was outside the range on the high end but don't exhibit a lot of those qualities associated with high testosterone (e.g., my rational mind controls my aggressive responses).

As for what to look for, you can find that stuff on the internet. For example, your levels of free testosterone are more important when considering gym gainz. Most steroid users get their test checked so you can prob find some info on those forums/sites.

As for the test itself your doc can do it or you can get it done from a 3rd party like labcorp/labmd. However, you can't get your test checked from a 3rd party in some states like NY and NJ.

How common is this?

It's not common for doctors to ask you to do that unless you display symptoms for either high or low levels, but it's pretty common for gym enthusiasts.

What should I look for ?

As high as you can possibly make it without steroids, both total and free.

What should I look for, and how would I go about getting it done?

Fix your diet, cut shit with estrogenic activity, and fix your sleep. If you still feel behind, measure it to see if low T is the source. You might want steroids.

No. Because I don't have a problem getting my dick up and I'm in good shape.
