Hello @anondrew, Welcome to Connect. I think it's always a good idea to discuss concerns with your doctor when you have symptoms that are important to you. From what I've read low testosterone is one of the possible causes and would be worth being checked by your doctor. Here's some information on the topic that might help explain.

-- Low Testosterone in Adolescents & Young Adults: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6966696/
-- Common Causes of Low Libido and No Sex Drive in Men: https://www.healthline.com/health/low-testosterone/conditions-that-cause-low-libido

Are you able to discuss your question with your doctor?

Yes, by a urologist.
Enlarged testicles can be fine. Find out why it is enlarged even if it's something minor.

Yes see a good urologist. Run towards your health issues not away. You have a long life ahead of you and will be glad you did. Fear nothing.
