What is Low Testosterone?
Low Testosterone, commonly referred to as Low T, is a condition characterized by an insufficient level of testosterone hormone in the body.
Testosterone is a crucial hormone primarily produced in the testicles in men (and in smaller amounts in women’s ovaries). It plays a vital role in various aspects of men’s health
Women aren’t the only ones that experience a midlife hormonal decline!
Most people are aware that women experience a midlife hormonal decline< called menopause but few people realize that men experience a very similar decline called andropause.
Male testosterone levels begin dropping in their 20s and continue to drop until the end of their lives.
Many men experience dramatic changes to their overall well-being when they experience low testosterone levels

A positive result means that you may have low testosterone and you should contact us to discuss your options.
Have you been 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 physician is trying to treat the symptom instead of the cause. This can also 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.
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 to enjoy longer, healthier lifespans.
