View allI've been feeling a bit off lately and a friend mentioned it might be a vitamin D deficiency. Is there a specific test I can take to check for this? And what should the ideal levels be if I'm looking at the results?
Yes, a simple blood test, specifically the 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) test, can diagnose vitamin D deficiency; the ideal level is generally considered to be between 30-50 ngmL, with levels below 20 ngmL indicating deficiency, 21-29 ngmL indicating insufficiency, and above 50 ngmL potentially indicating toxicity

I'm 17 and I've been wondering about something. I've been masturbating every day and I'm curious if this might be affecting my testosterone levels or the growth of my beard. Could it be having any impact on these things?
Masturbation does not have a direct impact on testosterone levels or beard growth. Testosterone levels are primarily influenced by factors such as age, genetics, overall health, and lifestyle. Similarly, beard growth is mainly determined by genetics and hormonal factors. If you have concerns about testosterone levels or beard growth, it is best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance.

I'm 25 and I've noticed that my beard and moustache aren't really growing much. I went to a homeopathic doctor and he said it might be hypogonadism. I've been taking the medicine he prescribed but haven't seen any big changes so far. Is there an allopathic treatment available for this?
Hypogonadism can indeed affect beard and moustache growth. In allopathic medicine, testosterone replacement therapy is often used to treat hypogonadism. You can consult a doctor to get a prescription for medications like Testim (testosterone gel) or Androderm (testosterone patch). The dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by your healthcare provider based on your specific condition.
