Guest guest Posted November 5, 2006 Report Posted November 5, 2006 I have question and I need advise on Low Testosterone. Although my Total Testosterone is high, close to 900ng/dL, my free testosterone is about 1ng/dL. I understand 1ng/dL is within the normal range and perhaps on the low side. What is out of normal is I have difficulty maintaining an erection and I suffer from being tired most of the time. Libido is on the low side. Also percentage of Free Testosterone is way too low. Mine is about 0.1% while the range is within 0.3~0.48%. I am curretly on Clomid to boost the testosterone. During the 1st month the both total and free testosterone went up, but the then free T started to fall back with in 1ng/dL range. The blood work was done many times, the SHBG is on the low, but normal range. So, if my total T is high, then what happened to my free T? They are not bonded to SHBG, since the SHBG is on the low side. Drs, keep telling me they can not explain why the percentage is low, but the and T and free T are within normal range and they are surprised at my problem with Erection and Libido. Can someone explain how the free T could be so low, while the total is so high? Steve Quote
