Question chromosomes not affect libido?

Hi,

Spoke to my doc yesterday. I'm fishing for ideas what's wrong, since the course of treatment (and maybe her diagnosis) don't seem to be working. I specifically asked her about whether I should be checked for unusual chromosomes, and she claimed that my symptoms (mainly low libido) aren't associated with such conditions.

Can anyone help prove or disprove her statement?

Thanks!
Glenn

hi glenn,

Im no doctor, but I doubt chomosomes are ur culprit. Have u had your hormone levels checked?? Perhaps you are low on testosterone. Best of luck getting what you need.

partly true

Yes, I was found to be low on testosterone (T), but even with my T levels brought up that didn't seem to be the answer. A lot of people with low T recommend checking female hormones and chromosomes, to see if something else is producing mixed signals.
