Saw the GP last week who ordered bloodtests and is referring me on to the menopause clinic. As per an earlier thread I have been feeling increasingly meh and cannot be bothered about stuff that I actually do like plus libido is non existent. Blood tests came back: Free androgen index/SHBC level = 44.2 nmol/L and free androgen index 1.1 %. Serum testosterone level 0.5 nmol/L

I was prescribed testosterone with a level of 0.7 last year. Improved my libido, strength and energy levels - I love it.
Having a bit of a blip at the moment - my T has increased to 1 but SHBG has reduced to 20 so FAI at 4.8% (too high) so waiting to speak to GP now.
