Longevity HealthMD How Do I Know if I Have a Loss of Testosterone?
It seems that the television is over crowded with commercials for things like Erectile Dysfunction and a myriad of other illnesses, but it’s very rare to see a spot on Low T or Hypogonadism. While this is still a newer medical finding, there are plenty of symptoms that lead to this diagnosis for some men. In this blog you can learn what to look out for, if you suspect a loss of testosterone. • Obesity • Erectile Dysfunction • Low Sex Drive • Loss of Hair • Stress & Anxiety • Depression
If you’ve noticed a significant difference in your weight that seems impossible to maintain, you may have Low T. Men with this dysfunction will notice they aren’t as strong as they were in their 20’s but it goes deeper than that. Low T can have a lot to do with osteoporosis in men where they notice breaking bones easier. Muscle tissue is not as firm as previously and it seems very difficult to lose the weight even when performing a routine of cardio and weights. Your health care provider will more than likely check for issues with your pituitary gland and other organs to ensure they’re not the culprit. When first exploring the possibilities of hypogonadism, it’s imperative to learn as much about your physiology for accurate diagnosis.
Erectile Dysfunction is a more commonly known, primarily from the pharma companies polluting the airwaves with the topic and cures. Beside the media outlets, E.D. Can be caused from things like clogged blood vessels or heart disease. If you’re experiencing E.D., be sure to have your medical professional check for Low T. This is a common problem of men that suffers from hypogonadism. A low sex drive can come from many facets of a person’s life. Of course as we age, it’s a part of life to have the proper testosterone to keep our interest in sex up to par. After all, even male babies start producing testosterone 7 weeks after they’re conceived. Unfortunately, it may not always be spelled out for you at your age. Men are still interested in sex till they get into their late 60’s to early 70’s. If you’ve noticed a big difference in the way you feel, then seek professional help. A low sex drive can lead to more than just neglect of sexual pleasure.
While some people will argue with the idea they are experiencing hair loss because of age or hereditary attributes, it can help determine if you're suffering from Low T. There is very little you can do about the loss of your hair when it’s caused by genetics. When it’s a problem with loss of testosterone production, then there’s help. Hair loss along with the other symptoms may determine whether you are suffering from a lack of testosterone.
Stress, anxiety, even depression will all play a factor in what your doctor will diagnose. Don’t hesitate to discuss with him if any of these issues are manifesting. Oftentimes, men won’t reveal they are suffering from these symptoms and these are key to determining what the real problem is. These are the most common symptoms for Low T or Hypogonadism and should be further explored by your physician or a health care professional specializing in hormone therapy.
