Took Axiron For Low Testosterone Level. Have Low Fsh And Lh Level. Should I Consult Endocrinologist?

Your wife could conceive certainly due to the Testosterone supplements you had taken.
Having low FSH and LH means the problem is not in the testes but it is in the pituitary. And hence testosterone supplements worked well.
Now eventhough you say the pituitary was reported to be normal during your last MRI brain done more than 1 and 1/2 year back, I would suggest to get MRI Sella (focussing on pituitary areas). Also Free T4, TSH, prolactin, AM Cortisol test to be done in fasting before 8 am are compulsory. Once you get the reports of blood and MRI tests please see an Endocrinologist for sure.
Do not ignore this as there might be something curable whereby you will get rid of taking hormone supplements.
What you are looking at: may be an empty sella which is rare in a man who have had normal sex hormones so far, may be a micro-tumor in the pituitary which is blocking normal secretion of LH and FSH and possibly other pituitary hormones like prolactin also, may be an infection of the pituitary causing disturbances in its secretions.
Do let me know what the Endocrinologist say. Please get back for any related query. Take care and all the best.
