Low testosterone level?

I’m almost positive I have a lack of testosterone. I was born 2-3 weeks premature which I heard that people who were born premature commonly have a lack of testosterone. I hit puberty at around age 12 with all typical signs but then dropped off at around age 15. I’m 18 now, weigh about 150 and am around 5′ 11". Since I dropped off at 15 I’ve had the following problems:

No self confidence
Severe depression (anti-depressants haven’t helped)
Lack of sex drive
Almost no facial hair
Smaller than average testicles
Lack of motivation (probably as a result of depression but has resulted in me losing three jobs in the last two years)
Extreme fatigue
Avoid/afraid to have social contact
I have a round boyish face that people often tell me I look like I’m 14

I’ve been on a fairly decent diet and get average exercise. I’m going to get a blood test done as soon as I have the time and money to go to a doctor but I’m just wondering what everyone else here thinks.
A friend of mine recommended taking some illegal steroids to increase testosterone levels which I was going to do until I heard you can get similar treatments from a doctor.
I have severe acne and have been on prescription medications for a while with little effect. My doctor said I probably have higher than normal testosterone levels but I have never had any blood work done yet on this.

Could an abnormal EEG cause personality disorders?

I was diagnosed with temporal lobe epilepsy when I was two years old; I suffered complex-partial seizures as a result of abnormal brain activity in the left hemisphere of my brain. I went on anticonvulsants, the seizures stopped, and I went off the medication. Everything was fine for about ten years.

After I started to hit puberty, a ton of strange things began happening. I had panic attacks, got depressed, and never developed a libido. I got an EEG, and the results were abnormal, but not dangerous. I tried various anti-depressants, and they didn’t help. At age 18, I had another EEG before getting a driver’s license, and the results were abnormal again.

How likely is it that my symptoms are the direct result of the brain wave spikes in my left temporal lobe? If that’s the case, would going on an anticonvulsant such as Lamictal be a good thing to try?

Medical question about Endometriosis?

OK this is a little off topic … so I have heard that pregnancy can ‘cure’ endometriosis. That’s what my OB said, but I suspect he was over-simplifying it for me :)

My question is, how could it be ‘cured’. Does so much of the endometrial lining get shed in the birth or afterbirth process than it totally rebuilds itself to a level you’d find in puberty?

I’m 32 weeks right now, but I had stage 2 (mild) Endo before pregnancy which made it hard to get pregnant. I’d like to try again in a few years and am just hoping the Endo will have gone away :)

Thanks everyone!!
Thanks ladies — I got pregnant on my first cycle of Clomid after TTC for 27 cycles, age 38.
