[QUOTE="johnnyxs, post: 1474752, member: 247982"] MeMe I think cracker has probably hit the nail on the head . My first thought also was low Testosterone which invariably means a problem with the Pituitary producing too much Prolactin. Prolactin is a hormone that regulates Testosterone production. To higher production of Prolactin cuts Testosterone production and this is freqently caused by a benigh tumour on the Pituitary. I had had non existant libido for 15 years amongst other syptoms but my Doctor ignored this. Ultimately I collapsed with a BS level of 38mmol/L and was diagnosed T2 Diabetic but I insisted on seeing an Endo who tested my Testosterone levels which were 2nmol/L ! reference range 6-25.7 nmol/L Turns out I have a Macro Prolactinoma (benigh tumour) on my Pituitary ,probably for many years. Don't let your low libido , fatigue, depression, stress anxiety and other symptoms ruin your relationship and life , insist on a Testosterone and Prolactin blood test to eliminate a Pituitary problem. If it turns out to be the Pituitary don't worry . 99.9% of pituitary tumours are benigh and can be successfully reversed with Gabergoline treatment which shrinks the tumour and restores Testosterone levels. Also there are several testosterone boosting treatments available also [/QUOTE]
