all in all I've done 3 tests on global testosterone and all came back with the result that I'm to low in testo..
although all the tests were done in the morning, my testo level was never higher than 2.8 ng/ml (the lower limit is 3 ng/ml)..
at this time I was on LEXAPRO 10mg and on selegiline 5 mg. although it's speculated that lex can lower testosterone, selegiline does not and is thought to raise testosterone...
I wonder if it would contribute to my depression that I am this low on testosterone because I don't think this level is caused by the meds..
can this be? I am just 24 years old, genital hairness etc. is normal, too - sex drive is also good, (when taking antidepressants), when I am depressed->not.
i don't have strong beard growth...does anyone have any experience with testosterone therapy in depression?
