What is Hormone Deficiency or Low T?

Treating Low T

As men age their testosterone levels decrease, a condition known as low testosterone or Low-T develops. When the testosterone levels begin declining this is the beginning of a process known as andropause.  Some people refer to this as male menopause. When andropause occurs men can experience lower energy levels, loss of muscle mass, decreased libido and poorer sleep to name just a few of the symptoms.  It has also been found that men with higher levels of testosterone often have a higher quality of living and higher life expectancy. Studies have also shown men with lower testosterone levels have a much higher risk of developing osteoporosis, diabetes as well as other diseases and illnesses. Sadly, hormone deficiencies often go undetected, leading providers to treat symptoms like depression, rather than the underlying hormonal problem. These providers are treating the symptom and not the cause.

Misdiagnosed?

Sadly, low testosterone is commonly misdiagnosed!

Many men suffering from low testosterone may not even realize they have a hormone imbalance.  Often low testosterone is misdiagnosed as depression or some other age related issue.  When this occurs the provider is trying to treat the symptom instead of the cause.  This can cause further problems in the future as the low testosterone levels have been left untreated.

 

Some men feel they should just live with many of the Low T symptoms because they think they are just a fact of life. What they fail to understand, however is that research has shown that men with low or declining testosterone levels have an increased risk of disease including osteoporosis and diabetes just to name two.  Low levels of testosterone later in life have also been associated with increased mortality risk.

 

Most importantly, men with higher levels of testosterone in the middle to later years of life have been shown in studies to enjoy longer, healthier lifespans.

Benefits of Testosterone Therapy

Now that you understand what androgen deficiency and how it can be misdiagnosed, it’s time to understand what can be done to treat low testosterone and the benefits associated with the treatment.

 

  • Increased Energy:  Most men undergoing testosterone therapy experience significant improvement to their energy levels. Often this energy can equate to gains in strength and the rebuilding of muscle mass.  Research has shown that increased testosterone levels can lead to better physical performance and improved recovery between workouts.
     

  • Increased Libido: Men who have been experiencing low testosterone often also experience a decline in libido.  A properly administered Testosterone Therapy protocol can increase not only testosterone levels but also a man’s libido.  An increase in testosterone levels often leads to a much stronger sexual desire, stamina and orgasms.  This goes hand in hand with feeling more vibrant and youthful.
     

  • Improved Mood:  When testosterone levels are low men often experience mood swings, irritability and depression.  The restoration of testosterone levels to more normalized levels through proper testosterone therapy often results in more stable mood in addition to improved feelings of well-being.
     

  • Protection of the Cardiovascular System: Studies have indicated that higher levels of testosterone lead to improved cardiovascular health and heart function.  Higher levels of testosterone lead to a stronger heart and blood vessels which means more blood is delivered to the body.  Additionally, some studies indicated that healthier testosterone levels lead to healthier cholesterol levels, thus reducing the risk of strokes and heart attacks.
     

  • Decreased Body Fat & Increased Muscle: Having a leaner body will help control weight and increase energy levels. Some evidence suggests that testosterone therapy can increase muscle size and strength while decreasing body fat.  Proper testosterone therapy treatment coupled with strength training can be a powerful in building a healthier body.
