Roasted seaweed are naturally rich in iodine, a trace element needed for normal thyroid function. Brazil nuts, macadamia nuts, and hazelnuts are excellent sources of selenium, which helps support healthy thyroid function. Baked fish, frozen yogurt, fresh eggs are also good.

The andrologist says my levels are normal but I feel terrible. The urologist doesn't recommend surgery - are there other ways to boost my testosterone naturally?

While 400 ng/dL is within the typical "normal" range for testosterone, it's understandable that you're experiencing low T symptoms with a varicocele.
