Adelaide TRT?

I am having a tough time finding anyone in Adelaide with an interest in Andrology. There is one urologist that comes up when searching google.

Anyone have a recommendation here? (Can PM me)
I am over 40 and have had low test for a while. It is time to do something about it but I am worried I will just run in into people with no interest if I randomly see an endocrinologist.
 
How do you know you have low test?
As [MENTION=9159]wingman[/MENTION]; said, post results.
 
Was below the reference range twice (around 9nmol/L). Last reading was 13.4 (9.9-28 ref range). I haven't tested levels in the last 3 months. I saw a GP here and when the result came back as slightly above the cutoff not much happened.
Symptoms are: Brain fog, fatigue, decreased energy, libido etc. I used to NEED to go to the gym. Now I rarely get the urge and almost need to force myself.

What's with blokes thinking 13 is low today?

So 13 is normal? What about having 2 measurements below the reference range?

If you get to see an Endo there will be nothing random about it.
 
Then Google Search all Endos in Adelaide and there you have it. Couldn't be too many. How hard is that?

No recent break ups, still have my job. Not on any strange medications. Is that what you mean?

Basically feel like a chronic fatigue patient but not depressed.

Yep. You'll need a referral from your GP anyway, they'd be the best place to start and should have an idea of who specialises in what. Just be explicit with what you want.
 
My GP didn't know of anyone with a special interest but was happy to provide a referral. Google turned up a urologist with an interest in andrology. Might consider that route.
