DH HAS LOW TESTERONE ANY ADVICE? TTC FOR A YEAR

DH went to our regular PCP last week and had his B12 and Testerone checked due to feeling very tired, having weight gain & etc the results showed that everything looked great except his Blood testerone was 266 which is low for a 28 year old man. So we seen a urologist today who checked him out downstairs and said that everything looked great and etc. He said that low testerone could cause alot of symptoms and he wanted to have his blood drawn again but in the moning time since Testerone is much higher in morning versues in the evening when his blood was drawn the first time. DH was upset when he found out his levels was low because this explains why I have not been able to get pregnant. We have been trying for a year.
The urologist advised DH to loose weight because weight gain can cause low testerone and make him infertile.
So DH thought for sure that his B12 was low so he went and bought some B12 vitamens and took one today and he actually has alot more energy. So he is going to loose weight and go from there. Is there anything I can take to up my chances of getting preggo since we know that the problem is now? I know I can take prenatals but I dont want to consume to much Folic Acid or Iron. I am fine I have been checked many times, we have a 4 year old together so I know we can get pregnant.

Well I know they have testosterone injections.  We give them at the office I work at.  I am not sure though at what levels they start giving the injections.  Maybe he could bring it up to his doctor the next time he is there.  Good luck.
