Got to have a testosterone blood test for gyno, is it necessary?

Asked By:reecebill7 in Benfleet, GB

I do strength training, have a decent diet, I have facial hair and all the signs of high testosterone levels, yet when I went to my Dr about my gyno she insisted of having a blood test for this, is there any point in doing so? I've had it for five years (as said in my previous question) and even when i was down to 12-15% body fat it didn't make a difference. I can't help thinking it's not hormonal.
