All men should be checked for heart disease and stroke before, and periodically while on, TT. (See discussion of these side effects below.) The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) has said that testosterone drug labels should state that there is a risk for heart disease and stroke for some men using testosterone products. TT may help you but it may have adverse (harmful) results. Talk with your doctor if you feel that you may need TT. Most men with Low-T (no matter what the cause) will be treated if they have both symptoms of Low-T and blood tests showing Low-T levels. If your testicles are removed because of a sickness such as cancer, you may need TT. You also may need TT if you harm or lose your testicles. Both the FDA and the AUA suggest that TT be used to treat conditions you are born with, such as Klinefelter syndrome.
You may need testosterone therapy (TT) if you have Low-T. See your doctor if you have any of these symptoms. There are many other possible reasons for these symptoms, such as: opioid use, some congenital conditions (medical conditions you are born with), loss of or harm to the testicles, diabetes, and obesity (being overweight).These symptoms or conditions may accompany Low-T: The American Urology Association (AUA) identifies low blood testosterone (Low-T) as less than 300 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL). Syndrome is a group of symptoms that, together, suggest a disease or health condition. Deficiency means that the body does not have enough of a needed substance. This is called Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome (TD) or Low Testosterone (Low-T). Testosterone levels generally decrease with age, so older men tend to have low blood testosterone levels. Testosterone hormone levels are important to normal male sexual development and functions.ĭuring puberty (in the teen years), testosterone helps boys develop male features like body and facial hair, deeper voice, and muscle strength. Testosterone is the male sex hormone that is made in the testicles.
