For many, when they think about hormone replacement therapy, instantly, they think about women. A common misconception is that women need hormone replacements far more than men. This couldn’t be further from the truth. At Skin And Body Refinery, we know that men can struggle with hormones just as much as women can throughout the aging process. Luckily, there are answers for men who are struggling with low testosterone. Low testosterone can impact the overall wellbeing for men in many different ways. Skin And Body Refinery offer male hormone replacement therapy to help combat these struggles.
Common Struggles Leading Low Testosterone in Men
Testosterone is a vital hormone that helps men feel energetic and supports several aspects of their wellbeing including, metabolism, mood, sexual health, strength, cognition and more. As men understand the changes in testosterone levels throughout aging, it can help them find answers to some struggles they may be having in those areas listed above. Skin And Body Refinery offer education as well as testosterone replacement therapy so that men can feel their best. There are a couple of ways that males can struggle with low testosterone.
- Andropause: In their mid 40s to early 50s, men may start to feel the effects of a gradual decline of testosterone. This happens around the same time that women start to experience menopause. This progresses slower than menopause for women, but it can result in negative symptoms such as weight gain, fatigue, loss of libido and brain fog.
- Male Hypogonadism: Some men struggle with a medical condition known as male hypogonadism. This happens when a man doesn’t produce enough testosterone to meet normal physiological needs. Even though men experience a decline in testosterone as they age, this condition shows that a man doesn’t have the right testosterone levels for a man his age.
