What Is The Normal Testosterone Level In A 38 Years Old Male?

I has my Test levels checked by my Dr she said it was in normal range, I have had 10 major surgeries in 5 years on my back & neck. I suffer from low energy, depression, and loss of desire in things I use to enjoy, could my Dr be wrong?

    Could be that the test is wrong. But it could be that you suffer from depression (as you stated)--which could explain the low energy and loss of desire in things. And I'm going to guess you probably have some level of pain which could contribute to the depression. I have chronic pain and it can just leach everything good out of every day when it's at it's worst.
    Ask your dr to do the test again just to verify. And if the test comes back in the normal range again, then it might be a good idea to explore some options regarding your depression, whether therapy, medication or a combination of both.
    Good luck. I hope you feel better soon. And sometimes it helps to just come online where you can ask and answer questions and feel useful. I know it does for me sometimes. It distracts me if nothing else.

      I would call your doctor and ask what your levels were and what the normal range is.  If you can at least get what your levels were you can even call the lab at your local hospital and they can look into what the normal range is for you.  You might be under a normal range but maybe it is the lower part of the normal range.  However, they should be able to help you with this.  Depression has a lot to do with things.  I would make sure you get checked out if you haven't already and maybe get on a medication for it.  If you already have and it is not working they may need to up it or change your medication.  Good luck with this and take care.

        A normal range for you and all men is between 140pg and 350pg, however this is free test.  a healthy range is considered between 200pg and 350pg, under 200pg would be in the non healthy or andropause range.  most dotors who know little about low testerone check the total testerone levels.  the problem is total test. Is the testerone that is bound to a protein molecule and is totally inactive.  get with a doctor who knows the difference and get your levels in the 200pg to 350 range.  also make sure they give you either hcg or clomiphin to keep your testicle making its own naturally.
