Hi All,

Please find below results:

TSH : 6.46 ( 0.3 to 5.5 )

Testrone 340.76 (164 to 753 )

T4 8.9 ( 4.5 to 12 )

T3 85 (60 to 200)

FT3 2.5 (1.7 to 4.2 )

FT4 1.33 ( 0.7 to 1.8 )

LH 4.99 ( 1.5 to9.3 )

FSH 2.21 ( 1.4 to 18.1)

Vitamin D 44 ( should be greater than 30 )

I am diabetic and have cholesterol, both are in good control wil medication

Now I would like to understand why my testrone level on the lower side.

I have hypothyrodism as per TSH levels. However LH is with in range but FSH on lowerside of

Range.

Can anyone explain low testrone reasons.

Your thyroid tests are not very well managed if your on thyroid meds. Too low. Maybe you are lowering your Cholesterol too much...your body needs cholesterol to make testosterone. Do you take ZINC that's very important for T. too.

PS Make sure you dont take any BIOTIN a B Vitamin that will give FALSE results like a decreased TSH and HIGHER T4 T3 than what you really have. Skip BIOTIN or any multi or Bcomplex 24 hrs before lab tests.

Thanks for the info on Biotin. I'll investigate further. Do you know why?
