Low Testosterone No Beard 23 Nearly 24

Question

Dear,

I am a 23-year-old male, soon turning 24, and I have not yet developed a beard. I am planning to get married in the next 1&ndash;2 years, and I am concerned about this issue.

I suspect that I may have a hormonal problem, possibly low testosterone. I would like to know:

1-Is this condition treatable?
2-What tests or evaluations would you recommend to determine the cause?
3-Could this affect my overall health, fertility, or ability to plan a family?

Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I look forward to your advice.

Sincerely,

Ms. Maryam Tahir · Answer

Beard growth varies widely among individuals, and in many cases, delayed or sparse growth is due to genetics rather than low testosterone. Nonetheless, it is sensible to have a proper evaluation to rule out any hormonal or metabolic cause.

I recommend consulting a local qualified endocrinologist for a detailed assessment. As an initial step, it would be useful to check fasting (around 9 a.m.) serum testosterone, LH (luteinizing hormone), FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), SHBG (sex hormone–binding globulin), prolactin, FBC (full blood count), and LFT (liver function tests). These will help assess your hormone profile and general health, guiding any further management if required.

If a hormonal imbalance is found, most conditions can be effectively treated under medical supervision.
