Testosterone
by jeff605, Dec 14, 2007 10:16PM
48 Y/O Male caucasion for routine H and P and labs. Asymptomatic.
Oct. 2, 2007 TSH .003 all other labs normal
Oct. 12, 2007 repeat TSH .010 T4 Free 0.81 (low normal) T3 Free 3.1 (normal).
You suggested checking out pituitary, so had the following labs:
Oct. 23 Prolactin 9.9 range 3.7-17.9
Testosterone 56 (47-244 range) so low normal
Dec. 12 LH 2.74 no normal values given
FSH 3.94 normal 1.6-9.7
Testosterone 46 (47-244 range)
So my TSH is back to normal, can we r/o thyroid problems? (probable subclinical hyperthyroidism)
Do Prolactin, LH (if normal) and FSH r/o pituitary problems?
What is the significance of the low testosterone and what should I do? Any other thoughts?
Thank you
