Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband is in the very low range for testosteron his level is 3, 1-30 is within normal but 30 being of highest level. Our Dr. Wont prescribe anything for him and he s experiencing depression, weight gain, no sexual interest, fatigue etc... what can we do to get help?
You are concerned about you husband having a low testosterone level. My first question was the test done as a fasting in the morning? Frequently labs have different normal ranges for testosterone and your husbands levels definitely sounds like he has low T. For the treatment he will need to start testosterone therapy which requires either topical or injections. Unfortunately taking pills does not work to increase testosterone levels.
I recommend that your husband seek a urologist who specializes in men's health issues. They can then repeat his labs and then start testosterone replacement if low.
Hope I answered your medical question. Please contact us again with your medical questions and concerns
