Testosterone Replacement Therapy

Testosterone has long been associated with sexual health and muscle development.  Because of the latter, it has received publicity regarding athletic abuse. Unfortunately this has shed a negative light on a very important hormone.

Testosterone does have an effect on libido and strength, but it is also essential to cardiac function as well as mood. Testosterone levels begin to fall for men in their 30s and continue a downward trend through the remainder of their life. It is now known that incidents of heart disease increase with decreasing testosterone levels, leading to higher rates of stroke and heart attacks.

Effects of Testosterone

Testosterone is a vital sex hormone that plays important roles in the body. In men, it’s thought to regulate sex drive (libido), bone mass, fat distribution, muscle mass and strength, and the production of red blood cells and sperm. Women also have testosterone, but in much smaller amounts.

  • Increases sexual interest
  • Increases muscle mass and body strength
  • Helps with emotional well being
  • Helps with erectile function in men
  • Helps with memory
  • Decreases skin sagging
  • Decreases body fat
  • Helps maintain bone strength
  • Increases some neurotransmitters in brain
  • Diminishes effects of aging in heart and brain
  • Decreases stiffness in joints and muscles
  • Fights early fatigue
  • Improves mood and decreases depression
  • Helps with intensity of orgasms and recovery time

Testosterone levels rise during puberty, peak during the late teen years, and then level off. After age 30 or so, it’s normal for a man’s testosterone levels to decrease slightly every year.

What is testosterone?

Testosterone is a hormone that the body makes and is responsible for normal sexual development as well as maintenance of other male characteristics throughout life.

The male hormone testosterone is produced by the testes. The amount of testosterone produced by the testes is regulated by both the hypothalamus and pituitary gland.

What are “normal” levels of testosterone?

In healthy men, testosterone levels between 350ng/dL and 1000ng/dL are considered normal. In this range the brain is able to communicate with the testes so that they produce only as much T as necessary to carry out their functions.

What are the benefits of testosterone replacement therapy?

Benefits of testosterone replacement therapy vary based upon the pre-therapy symptoms and other factors, but they can include the following:

  • Increased energy
  • Decreased irritability and depression
  • Improved muscle mass and strength
  • Improved sexual desire
  • Improved visuospatial cognitive function and verbal memory
  • Higher motivation
  • Decreased body fat (optimal results received through accompaniment of a diligent diet and exercise regimen)
  • Possible improvement in erectile function
  • Thicker skin

Can testosterone replacement therapy make me feel more energetic?

One of the most common symptoms of low-T is chronic exhaustion. If you’re relying on an afternoon caffeine boost to get through the day, or you feel like you could take a nap anytime – no matter how well you’re sleeping at night – low testosterone levels are likely to blame.

Can I be too old for testosterone replacement therapy?
