When I tried to get my testosterone levels checked, by doctor told me that I didn't have a good reason to. Apparently they vary too much, so comparing my levels now (I have been eating, sleeping, and exercising poorly for the past three months) with my levels in a few months of living healthy wouldn't tell me anything, unless they were outside of the normal range, which seems pretty large.
Is my doctor right? And would I not notice any difference if I went from 300 ng/dL to 800 ng/dL?
Has anyone else tried to get their test levels checked?

350 is about the minimum for a healthy male.
Do you have symptoms of low testosterone?
Sounds like your docter has a point. If you're not living as healthy as you can, if you can, and poor health is the reason for low test, the answer is to live healthier, not roids.

I was curious to see what my test levels were, how much they would increase, and if I noticed any difference between the two levels.

No, but I would like to be more "manly," as well as have more energy, confidence, etc.

Though now that I think of it, I rarely get morning wood.

Does masturbation or sexual contact feel good or stimulating?
>>35079863
Shit. When I was at 350 I was depressed and tired constantly and has absolutely no sex drive.

American doctors seem to not want to give people things that actually work because of this stigma surrounding things like test and opiates and whatnot. They have it in their head that most people can't be trusted with powerful compounds because of this puritan belief stucture that America is based on.
Bettering yourself is bad because you won't be humble. Pleasure is a sin. Everybody has sin in them and the potential to become a a junky because of that. People can't be trusted with their own bodies and emotions. Just be a good worker bee.

Why did you respond to my statement with that.
They wouldn't give me a script at 350 because stupid insurance companies control those standards for some reason so I bought my own black market and I feel amazing and happy and healthy. So glad I made that decision.

The very concept of "bettering oneself" has its origin in Protestantism.

If I'm at 350, will I notice any difference if I go up to 800?

Perfecting oneself (if you are only taking western- eurocentric shit) is a greek ideal
