Low Testosterone

What is testosterone?

Testosterone is that “manly” hormone that helps with muscle growth, sex drive, and even bone strength. But as you get older, or if you’re facing certain health conditions, your testosterone levels can drop.

What are the signs and symptoms of low testosterone?

If your testosterone drops too low, you might notice:

• Low sex drive: You’re just not feeling it anymore.
• Erectile issues: It’s harder to perform when needed.
• Fatigue: No energy to get through the day.
• Hair loss: Losing that strong, bushy beard?
• Increased body fat: Love handles starting to appear?
• Mood swings: You’re more irritable or just feeling down.

What are the causes of low testosterone?

• As you age, testosterone naturally drops.
• Stress, obesity, alcohol, and even some medical conditions like diabetes or kidney disease can also mess with your testosterone levels.

How is low testosterone treated?

Good news: low testosterone can be treated with testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). But before jumping into treatment, chat with your doctor, as there are side effects to be aware of.

Don’t ignore it!

If you’re noticing these signs, don’t just brush them off. Speak with a doctor! Low testosterone doesn’t just affect your manhood—it affects your whole life. Stay on top of your health, gentlemen!
