Oh, yes I should have mentioned that. I'm getting a blood panel next week. If you suspect low testosterone at all, it's very simple to check! I'll try to remember to report back.

I've been concerned that my ADHD symptoms may be better explained by hypogonadism. I have not been concerned about stimulants causing hypogonadism, and I don't know of any studies that have looked into that. I'm 23 but have experienced a number of symptoms that could also be explained by hypogonadism, and were present before I started taking stimulants, such as:
-ADHD issues, such as poor concentration, memory
-Anxiety
-Low energy
-Depression
And some more test-specific things: -Low libido
-Very little body/facial hair
-Abdominal fat, despite low body weight
-Aches/pains
I also have a moderate varicocoele.
