Silke I am still here and still wondering about you. I think those numbers you told me on the testosterone are low. was is testosterone 0.37ng/dl or ng/ml? see the dl or ml mean deciliter and milliliter, the website I looked up (since I am not familiar with ranges for blood tests, more for saliva tests which are measured differently) but the website I looked up said that testosterone 25ng/dl or less is deficient and 1.5pg/ml is deficient for free testosterone. I dont know if they tested your testosterone or free testosterone, but regardless your result of 0.37 is still lower than these UNLESS they used a different measurement. So listen to what your doctor says is normal. If he says your level is normal, ask what the range is and write it down. If it is "low normal" again, then I would say that this is NOT a normal range for what your body is used to and may be contributing to your symptoms. Also ask if a progesterone level was drawn as this is also an androgen hormone and may be low as well. Im sorry, I know this can be confusing but I want to get this message to you. Let me know. K.
