IT`S MOVEMBER AND WE HAVE A HOT TOPIC TO DISCUSS:
Feeling stressed and fatigued? It may be more than work, it can be low testosterone!
In the world of today, most men are busier than ever before, and they have every reason to be so! The daily stresses of life are major contributors to the way they feel physically and mentally during their waking hours, while impacting the quality of their night sleep as well.
We may experience constant tiredness, lack of energy, poor sleeping, loss of motivation, increased body weight, mood swings, depression, and some of us may also complain of a `brain fog`. Unfortunately, many men often throw these symptoms to the wayside, eluding themselves by considering these symptoms a byproduct of demanding job obligations and deadlines, a rough week of being a parent, or simply relating it to age progression. But what if life`s inevitable stress was only the little rookie in your every day`s battle against these symptoms? Low testosterone is a clear and present danger for every man, and it can result in every symptom listed above. It can drain the energy out of your body, make it difficult to concentrate, and may lead to most men`s worst nightmare; low sex drive and poorer erection quality.
With low testosterone, many men simply lose their appetite for intimate activity. It is not that they consciously don’t want it, actually they are often bewildered as they do not know what`s going on and they cannot figure out why they are not interested anymore. The truth is, men rely on a sex drive to be the motivator for their intimate life. Essentially, without adequate testosterone, low sex drive in men is common, and this may make it difficult to attain an adequate erection for a satisfactory intimate activity.
Everybody wants to think they are the strongest, toughest guy. And if you are still young, you might be thinking this doesn’t concern you, but even men in their twenties may be affected by low testosterone. A gradual decline in testosterone is typical with age, but age isn’t always the determining factor with testosterone deficiency. Regardless of age, more than a few factors can increase your risk. These include, but are not limited to, genetic problems, obesity, high blood pressure, type II diabetes, abuse of anabolic steroids, and certain prescribed medications.
Here’s the good news. You do not have to accept this as the `new you`! If you have low testosterone, the safe and effective Testosterone Replacement therapy (TRT) administered under specialized medical care can bring you back to feeling re-energized and lively each day, with a sex drive to match. By treating the symptoms of low testosterone, men feel more vigorous, enjoy more productive sleep and take pleasure in a renewed sense of self. They find it easier to concentrate and remember, with mood improvement.
When it comes to sex drive and erection, many men will find that Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) alone will provide them with an increased sex drive and an adequate erection for a satisfactory intimate life, eliminating the need for PDE5 inhibitors like Sildinafil tablets and its alternatives occupying the shelves in pharmacies.
If you are experiencing a chronic low sex drive or an unsatisfactory intimate life, your body may be giving you an alarm signal that concerns its testosterone levels. Finding out if you are low on testosterone is as easy as getting a blood test.
In our society, men who always feel tired or drained are often told it is just a fact of life, and a drop in men’s vitality is commonly brushed under the carpet as an inevitable part of ageing. But in some cases low testosterone is to blame, and there are treatments available. Your masculinity and virility are key drivers for living your best life. Talk to your trusted male health expert who can evaluate you for other conditions that might be causing your symptoms, get down to the root cause of your low testosterone, and through a customized approach tailored to your body`s unique health needs, prescribe testosterone treatment if it is right for you.
