Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello- I am 52 years old male and I am experiencing sadness and crying for no particular reason. My wife ask me why I am sad and I have no answers. I am physically active and most of the time try to eat a balanced diet. Some people tell me I should get my testosterone checked. One doctor wants to put me on an antidepressant and another just had me increase my supplements(fish oils and multivitamins). What do you believe is causing this imbalance?
