Total cholesterol 238 (last year), and 249 recently.

25 OH Vitamin D (total) 58.87 ng/ml.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

All your tests are normal except for high level of FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and LH (lutenizing hormone) and prolactin and your endocrinologist advises for no medicine.

For managing your ED (erectile dysfunction) try the life style modifications and use of Sildenafil or Tadalafil as on when required basis.

Avoid alcohol and tobacco products if using currently.

Go for a regular morning walk at least 45 minutes daily or go for exercise daily.

Spend more time during foreplay.

Take adequate sleep.

Eat healthy food and drink plenty of water.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Then it is fine. Actually there is always variation in hormone levels during evening times, morning time and night time. The standardized test results are accordingly assessed and there is no need to worry if there is some variation depending upon the time.

Do try lifestyle modifications and continue it for a long time and you will see the good results.

welcome back sir. As of now there is no need for other investigation. Age is a factor but your age is not much concern now as you are only 41 . your diet is good and avoid too much tea. Milk ,banana, roots and black eye beans are good sources of vitamins so continue them. Take salad and leafy vegetables and fruits. So as of now do regular exercise. Take healthy food. Good life style. Thanks and regards
