Your hypothyroidism could be the cause for your hypogonadism. My testosterone level was 400 ng/dl and I still had to do Testosterone Replacement Therapy. If your testosterone levels dont reach 600+ after being for 2-3 months on hypothyroid meds (also cut down on weight), then you should start TRT for sure. Google defy TRT clinic, they give TRT to anyone who has levels under 550 ng/dl. Also, for your nasal congestion, its highly likely your hypothyroid issue is causing it, again, after taking the hypothyroid meds for 2-3 months check if its improving, if not, get a CT scan of your nasal and sinus area. Oh, also, before you start TRT, docs need to see whats causing it, if your prolactin is high then that could be the reason. I suggest you go look up /r/testosterone on reddit for more details.

I actually did an at home sleep apnea test and it says I am fine. Gonna go to a lab next time.

Lets help eachother with this, lets keep in touch, you can find me on reddit at “thehedonistvagabond”
