There are so many life changing benefits of testosterone treatment.
Testosterone is the primary male hormone. Testosterone is vital to your ability to build muscle and metabolize fat. Testosterone keeps your energy levels high and sex life good. Unfortunately, you do not have an unlimited supply of testosterone. Once you are over 20, your testosterone levels begin to decline, and the older you get, the more your testosterone levels drop.
Once you are over 30 you can begin to really feel the effects of declining testosterone. Low testosterone can lead to:
If you are over 35, and feeling any or all of the above, there is a good chance that you can benefit from testosterone treatments. There are many benefits of testosterone treatment for men. Here are the top ten benefits of testosterone replacement therapy.
1. Helps you to lose weight and maintain proper body mass –Every man knows that the older you get, the easier it is to put on weight and the harder it is to take it off! Your declining testosterone levels have a lot to do with that. Your fat to muscle ratio, also known as your Body Mass Index, or BMI, is largely regulated by your hormones. Your ability to burn fat (especially abdominal fat) and build lean muscle is directly proportional to your levels of critical hormones such as testosterone. Studies suggest that there is an inverse relationship between increased testosterone levels and body fatness (see Rohrmann S et al, NHANES III 2011: 22).
2. Improves bone density – As your hormones decline as you age, it can lead to bone loss. This is why older folks are more susceptible to breaks and fractures, even from a relatively minor fall. Low testosterone plays a major role in weakening bones, and making them break more easily, and harder to heal. Testosterone treatment strengthens bones, and can help reverse bone loss. It has a similar effect on the enamel of your teeth!
3. Increases energy and vitality – One of the first noticeable signs of low testosterone, also known as “Low-T,” is a lack of energy and motivation. Conversely, one of the first differences patients on testosterone therapy notice is increased energy, and a sense of renewed vitality.
4. Improves cardiovascular health – There was a time when it was thought that testosterone treatment could increase the risk of heart attack. We now know that not only is that not the case, current research suggest that treatments for low testosterone can actually decrease your risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
5. A remedy for erectile dysfunction – Testosterone therapy, helps to improve blood flow and nerve sensitivity, so it can also help men with erectile dysfunction (ED). Testosterone is also a precursor to nitric oxide production. Nitric oxide is essential to erectile function. In fact, increasing the levels of nitric oxide in the blood, is exactly how Viagra and many of the other popular ED medications work.
6. Improved libido – In addition to helping you to achieve better and more sustainable erections, testosterone therapy has been known to also increase libido or sex drive.
7. Increased focus and cognition – Testosterone replacement treatments have been very effective in helping to clear up the “brain fog” that many men experience as they get older. It aids in improving memory, focus, and cognition, and therefore it can also help to improve your job performance.
8. Improved emotional well-being – Men with Low-T, are more likely to develop emotional issues such as depression, anxiety, and increased irritability. Testosterone replacement therapy can help return you to a more stable and assured version of yourself.

10. Improved self-esteem – Testosterone treatment can help you regain confidence and help you to feel better about yourself.
