AlphaMD's Answer
Your LH is low and your FSH is on the lower end as well. This suggests you may have secondary hypogonadism.
You would expect a rather drastic improvement in quality of life with the addition of TRT. With a total T of 175.8, you definitely qualify for treatment. You would expect improved muscle mass, increased metabolism to aid fat loss, more energy, better workout recovery, improved libido and better erection quality. Most men also note improved mood, sense of well-being, confidence, and reduced levels of anxiety and depression.
