Felt Lousy, Loss Of Strength, Testosterone Blood Test Done, Test Shows Low Level

I am 83yrs old and still working. In January 2013 I felt lousy, no energy - loss of strength and no get and go. My Doctor
run a Testosterone blood test and the level came back very low so he started me on 40.5MG/ML CREAM for three
month's ( ONE MIL ) a day. For the next TWO month's increased to 100MG/ML CREAM at ( 2MIL ) a day. At the present time It was increased to 200MG/ML CREAM at ( 2 MIL ) a day and I feel about the same as I did when I started. Am I to old to expect more energy and strength. Thank You: Paul Taylor at YYYY@YYYY

Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.
Some degree of lack of energy and the complaints you are giving may be associated with old age.
Great to hear from you that you are actively working. Congratulations.
Regarding the testosterone usage I suggest you to consult a endocrinologist for the needful.
Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
