Performance Enhancing in Body building
Hi, I’ve been working out for a few years. Initially, I gained good muscle and increased my weight from around 55 kg to 66 kg. However, my muscle growth and strength have been stuck for a long time.
I can gain more body weight by eating junk food or increasing calories, but most of it seems to be fat rather than muscle.
My total testosterone level was 468 ng/dL. A friend suggested Cernos, but I did not take it because I haven’t consulted a doctor.
Do endocrinologists consult people for bodybuilding-related muscle gain even without a diagnosed hormonal disorder?

You should start gaining weight in a healthy way by increasing protein intake not taking testosterone supplements as the risks may outweigh the benefits. Exogenous intake may lower your natural production of testosterone. As it seems your levels are normal, do not go for it.
Stop eating junk. Just eat more protein. You will gain muscle mass in a natural way. Don't rush

You didn't mention your height.
You should be happy that you have gained 11 kg of weight .
Please don't go for Testosterone supplements.
Your testosterone levels are normal. You can only get side effects of testosterone, no useful purpose.
