What is Testosterone?

Men, women and even animals have this hormone in their bodies. The amount of hormone produced by a women’s body is less than in a man’s body. Testosterone is the hormone that makes a man what he is. It is the key ingredient for a man to be sexually reproductive and provide sperm. Without testosterone a man is less likely to perform sexually or produce enough sperm.

The production of testosterone in men increases significantly during puberty.  After the age of 30, testosterone production begins to slow down.

Not only does testosterone play a key role in sperm production, it also affects the way fat is stored, the development and maintenance of muscle and bone mass, and the production of red blood cells. Low testosterone levels are known to affect moods and temperaments.

It is a common problem with men that they do not recognize the symptoms of low testosterone, and neither do they feel comfortable visiting doctors to discuss it. The symptoms are often unclear, although they are very subtle.

Many men end up suffering in silence because they are reluctant to talk about sexual dysfunction for fear of embarrassment. Sometimes, they put it down to stress at work, or getting older, and therefore feel that it will simply go away in time. Avoiding the issue is a common problem. Low testosterone will not go away or improve of its own accord.

While TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) is familiar with many men, there is still a certain amount of embarrassment when talking about it. It is a good idea to remember that having that first conversation about low testosterone is easier than most men think.

Some symptoms include:

  • Feeling depressed for no reason
  • Disrupted sleep or bad sleep
  • Noticeable loss of muscle mass
  • Less strength
  • Less endurance
  • Constant fatigue and tiredness
  • Mind fogginess
  • Lower energy levels
  • Mood swings
  • Sexual dysfunction

Maintaining optimum testosterone is essential with the demands of modern life. Being healthy both mentally and physically is important as men get older and keeping testosterone levels higher will ensure this.

Benefits of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)

Apart from sexual functioning being restored, there are many other benefits of TRT.

  • Better quality sleep
  • Improved mental focus
  • Increase in self confidence
  • Muscle mass and bone density restored
  • Higher energy levels
  • Less or no mood swings
