I'm 21 and I've been dealing with spermatorrhea. I'm thinking about getting a hormone test to see what's going on. Could you suggest which hormone tests I should consider?

For spermatorrhea, it's important to assess your hormonal balance. You should consider tests like testosterone levels, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and prolactin. A consultation with an endocrinologist or urologist will help guide you further based on your symptoms.
