NoFap? Might help a little

A vial of test prop and some 25g needles.

This is going to sound ironic, but work out.

Pump heavy iron in big complex lifts.

Also, try to optimize your sleep and get some sunshine exposure during the first half of the day

How low is it? That's relevant to know before determining whether TRT is the only way to go or not. But to answer the question vitamin D deficiency can cause the testosterone to be lower than it should be. Alcohol, liquorice, lack of sleep and high bodyfat can also lower testosterone.

Good, consistent sleep. Healthy diet full of good fats, moderate amounts of protein, and low in processed or refined foods. I know certain kinds of meat promote testosterone, like venison and elk. Decrease stress, so massage, meditation, working out and aerobic activity all help. I’ve always felt like my dog lowers my stress levels too, especially after a long day of work.

I’m sure there are things a doctor can do or prescribe but I would go the natural route and use treatments such as testosterone replacement therapy as a last resort. Plus, I tend to not trust western medicines approach on this issue as most doctors know little about the importance of nutrition.

While this isn’t unanimously agreed upon, it is in my opinion that a diet high in carbohydrates isn’t good either, I follow more of a ketogenic/lchf diet. Also, sugars aren’t good for you, especially those derived from sugar cane and corn. However, sugar in general isn’t good.

Intermittent fasting is another good route to consider. I follow an 18/6 Sunday through Thursday with Friday and Saturday being days I’ll have wine or some tequila and more of a cheat meal (like bbq or tacos) although I typically cook it myself which helps I think in terms of controlling what goes into the food. Nothing less stressful during the week than not worrying about food except for a pregym snack and dinner afterwards while still enjoying social life on the wknds.

With all that said, everything in moderation. The worst thing you can do is stress about every thing you put into your body.

Get quality sleep, lift weights, do HIIT, get enough protein, fat, and carbs, and the one that many people forget about, figure out ways to reduce stress such as meditate. If all those fail your only option is getting pharmaceutical assistance.
