thanks for your response...I would like to know how being hypo affects my erectile dysfunction? What would you recommend my dose to be for my levothyroxine? What is the normal range for testosterone for good sex drive? Also, im taking Isdaprine for my blood pressure that can have an effect on my sex drive?
HI,
I think that your levothyroxine dose likely needs to be increased based on that TSH value. In addition, your blood pressure is still too high and needs to come down a bit. There are several reasons for your erectile issues, including the hypothyroidism(which contrbutes quite a bit), possible side effects from the blood pressure agents, side effects of having high blood pressure in the first place, and even the possibility of a low testosterone(which should be checked). Speak with your doctor about increasing your thyroid dose, possible side effects of your blood pressure agents and getting your blood pressure down, and also testing your testosterone levels. Also, if you smoke I strongly suggest that you stop--this does not help erectile function either.
Hope this helps. Good luck and take care.
