i have been having many sexual dysfunction issues and what seems to be a stunt in pubescent growth since i suffered a traumatic brain injury in 1999. i was 18 years old at the time and i still grow the same (limited) amount of facial hair and have the same small amount of chest hair, etc. my father can grow a full thick beard, as could my grandfather. i have a few patch blotches, nowhere close to a beard. i suffer pretty much every symptom of someone who has low testosterone issues. i believe that i damaged my pituitary gland. i have had numerous tests, but the results are always within the normal range (although the bottom of the group)
keeping in mind that i am a 26 year old male, are the following numbers normal? here they are :
SSH - 3.5
Lutein - 4.0 (LH)
Prolactin - 9.3
Free testosterone - 13.8
thyroid - 1.3
i can't find sure answers as to what those numbers could mean. any help would be invaluable, the more comprehensive the better. this has been torment for years. thank you! It depends on what the lab uses as their reference range. But your testosterone level is low which could explain your symptoms. Have you seen an endocrinologist regarding your pituitary gland? |
