I do not have any sexual desire. Is it due to low testosterone levels?

Question

Hi doctor,

I am a 30 year old male, who weighs 115 kg, and I am 6.3 feet tall. I got married, but I do not know about my problem when I got married, I do not have sexual desire, and I do not feel like touching my wife. So, I went to a doctor, who did some tests and told me that my testosterone is only 229. He gave me medicines, and I used them for two months. But, I do not see any improvements. How to improve my testosterone level? Is there any way I can increase my testosterone levels? Please advice.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The testosterone level at your age should be around 500 ng/dL, so 229 ng/dL is very low. This could be the reason for poor libido in your case.

I suggest visiting a good endocrinologist for evaluation to find out the reason for low testosterone. If no cause is found, then obesity could be the reason for low testosterone. Try to exercise hard and lose weight, and it will improve testosterone levels significantly.

Testosterone injections weekly can help to improve the levels. Talk to your doctor about this.

Thanks.
