Hello,
I'm 33, male. Eat healthy, normal slim, etc. For a while (2-3 months) I realised a big drop in my libido. Its not completely shut down but its really very low. I have very few morning wood, maybe1 in 2 weeks, have ''not very strong'' erections, have premature ejaculation problem, mostly can't do the second time after having sex, I lose my erection easily, lost my interest to beautiful girls :) and I'm mostly tired and have low energy.
All my life I experienced PE (with a few exceptions) but my libido was not low. So I suspected that it could be hormonal. Everything points to low T and I made some tests. Here's the results:
Total T: 534 (1 year ago it was 845 but the lab told me that they changed the method so its not healthy to compare)
Bioavailable T: 242
Free T: 9.69
Prolactin: 42.59
Cortisol: 696.37
s-TSH: 3.24
FT4: 16.30
So this means; everything looks in normal range except HIGH PROLACTIN and CORTISOL. I went to an experienced urologist and he told me that Prolactin is not that high to suspect a tumor (I don't have any headache or vision problems) and its probably because of stress.
Yes I'm a very stressful guy who think too much, hard on myself, etc. But can it really be the cause? Here's the alternative theories:
1- Prolactin is high because I stopped going to gym since 2-3 months and I'm mostly stressful about my work. So its really psychogenic.
2- Relationship problems made my Prolactin high and shut-down my libido. Again its psychogenic.
3- Some another hormone or a physical problem is raising Prolactin levels.
What do you thing? Help.
