question from a user
Am I good candidate for TRT? M29 W: 240 built. Very consistent in the gym, but was curious about TRT due to muscle recovery, mental health, libido, and gain muscle. My test results came back with a lower free test. What does this mean? Would I be a good candidate? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When it comes to low T & being a candidate for TRT, your symptoms matter a fair bit. The testing is really good to tell us if your primary/secondary hypogonadism or relative hypogonadism. All of those types have ranges and information surrounding them which help make that call, but all of them are just as valid.
