Testosterone replacement
Testosterone replacement therapy boosts low testosterone levels, enhancing energy, mood, muscle mass, and libido while alleviating symptoms like fatigue and reduced motivation.
What is low T or hypogonadism?
During puberty, the male sex hormone, testosterone helps boys develop male physical features like body and facial hair, deeper voices, and muscle strength. It is a hormone produced by the testes and is regulated by the pituitary gland and hypothalamus in the brain. Testosterone is also needed for men to make sperm.
When a man does not have enough testosterone in his body it is called low-T. Levels of the hormone normally decrease with age. About 4 out of 10 men over the age of 45 have low testosterone. It is seen in about 2 out of 10 men over 60, 3 out of 10 men over 70, and 3 out of 10 men over 80 years old. Men with certain health problems, including diabetes and obesity, also tend to have low testosterone.
