Testosterone is an essential hormone for men's health and vitality. As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline about 1-2% per year after age 30. Low testosterone, also called low T or hypogonadism, refers to testosterone levels below 300 ng/dL. Symptoms include low energy, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, emotional changes, erectile dysfunction, and reduced interest in sex.
Left untreated, the risks include osteoporosis, heart disease, diabetes, and higher mortality rates. The good news is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) can safely and effectively treat low T. With customized treatment plans, most men find increased energy, improved strength, better moods, and restored sexual health.
