To answer your question is he a candidate for TRT
Second TRT may help the adrenals rest but will also deplete DHEA even lower, and if you are low cortisol it will lower it even further. Dr give TRT to people that have low adrenals is asking for diaster. Treating the adrenals and thyroid first then sex hormones is the proper order.
So supplementing DHEA with TRT keeping check on E:T ratio keeping it >1:20 , but also be more focused on bioavailable..

I have people come to me tuned up on TRT, but there adrenals or thyroid are imbalanced causing the TRT not be be effective at the tissue level. Treating the TRT should help the insulin resistance over time as cellular changes take place. As always I put emphasis on Stress reduction, sleep quality, and lifestyle changes in conjucntion with HRT. Him being 52 his test will most likely not return to health levels with out TRT. If he is low on folinic acid then this could be an indicator that he is b-12 defieincy or b-12 biounavailable to impaired methylation possible due to TOxins..his vitamin D levels are probably about 30-40 if that if he is lucky. due to your wonderful gov't scaring people about skin cancer..80% of australia is not vitamin D defieint.
