Testosterone Q & A
What is testosterone?
Testosterone is a male sex hormone produced mainly in the testicles. Testosterone is responsible for your sperm production and sex drive but also drives the growth of facial and body hair and muscle tissue. The hormone plays a role in bone density and how fat is distributed on your body. Because it also influences red blood cell production, it has an impact on your energy levels.
Why do testosterone levels go down?
Your testosterone levels generally reach their highest during adolescence and your early 20s. After age 30-40, your levels start to decline very gradually at a rate of about 1% per year. This reduction of testosterone can also happen at a steeper rate due to aging, causing unpleasant symptoms.
Men can experience a severe drop in testosterone due to stress or obesity. You may also suffer a disease, known as hypogonadism, in which your body doesn’t produce normal amounts of testosterone due to problems with your endocrine system.
What are the symptoms of low testosterone?
Symptoms you may associate with aging are often a sign of low testosterone. These include:
- Changes in sleep patterns
- Increased body fat
- Reduced lean tissue and trouble gaining muscle
- Decreased bone density
- Reduced libido
- Fewer erections
- Depression
- Brain fog
If you’re a man suffering from these symptoms, seek the consult of Dr. Dalhoumi to find out if low testosterone levels are to blame.
What is testosterone therapy?
If Dr. Dalhoumi suspects you have low testosterone levels compromising your health and function, he’ll order lab tests to evaluate your levels. If you need therapy, he offers supplemental bioidentical hormone therapy in pellet form. These pellets are inserted under your skin, and they release as needed to normalize your levels.
Bioidentical hormones are made from plant ingredients and formulated to match the testosterone your body produces. They’re all natural and safe. With the therapy, you’ll feel your energy and vitality restored.
