In men, the following symptoms may indicate a testosterone deficiency:

• Change in physique: less muscle, more fat
• Decreased libido
• Subfertility
• Difficulty getting an erection (erectile dysfunction)
• Breast development (gynecomastia)
• Fatigue, including as a result of the possibility of anemia
• Mood swings or depression

An excessively high testosterone level, such as from supplementation, results in symptoms including:

• High blood pressure
• Aggression
• Skin Problems
• Problems with blood sugar levels.

In women, too much testosterone can result in infertility.

The sex hormone testosterone is produced in the body by both men and women.

As a sex hormone, testosterone is needed to control various processes in the human body. The functions of testosterone are different in men and women.

There are two main ways to increase testosterone levels: promoting the body’s natural testosterone production and using artificial testosterone supplementation. By adopting a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, proper nutrition, sufficient sleep, stress management, and maintaining a healthy weight, you can positively influence the body’s natural testosterone production. Additionally, in certain cases, under the guidance of a healthcare professional, artificial testosterone supplementation may be considered to address specific medical conditions or deficiencies.

Testosterone is the male sex hormone and, in men, causes the development of their secondary sex characteristics, among other things, during puberty. It also helps produce sperm, maintain libido, stimulate skeletal muscle growth and produce red blood cells.

Testosterone is primarily produced by the body and is not naturally found in food. Therefore, it is not possible to directly increase testosterone levels through dietary intake. However, in cases where testosterone levels are low and deemed medically necessary, artificial testosterone can be supplemented through capsules or injections under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

The results of bloodwork for testosterone provide valuable information about your testosterone levels and their impact on your overall health. By measuring the concentration of testosterone in your blood, the test can indicate whether your testosterone levels are within the normal range or if there is an imbalance. The results can help identify any underlying hormonal issues or conditions that may be affecting your testosterone production. Additionally, the testosterone levels check can provide insight into potential causes of symptoms such as low libido, fatigue, muscle weakness, or mood changes.
