Not to pew pew your suggestion, but apparently sleep, diet, and, exercise effect test levels as well, so more things to check at and rule out before committing to lifelong trt. Although I keep reading testomonials where people say they don't mind jabbing or applying creams.

Also test levels vary drastically during the day in a two peak fashion, when you get tested can affect results in a misleading fashion.

Also genetic sensitivity to testosterone can effect test levels. So you really need a good doctor who is able to look honestly at your symptoms and who isn't running a testosterone mill which is just a modern day equivalent of snake oil (except more dangerous, since test is actually biologically active haha)
