What could these blood test results indicate?

I’m 20, I just got back these blood results, and my doctor referred me to an endocrinologist. he said that I have low cortisol, low progesterone, unusually low testosterone, and elevated TSH?
my symptoms are sudden weight gain (that stopped, but won’t come off), anxiety, tinnitus, brain fog, exhaustion, infrequent period (starting last Dec.) and a few others
thanks !

These results, especially the TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) levels, are an indication that a hormone imbalance is most likely going on.
Some of the symptoms such as the weight gain, and anxiety and irregular periods can be an indication of a thyroid problem called hypothyroidism.
The endocrinologist will try to help figure out what is going on.
