Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Yes, serum testosterone can be measured.
2. Low testosterone, if present can be explanation for low sex drive.
3. You also might require counseling along with estimation of serum testosterone.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
