Low T | Low testosterone | Entourage Medical

During puberty, testosterone helps build a mans muscles, deepens his voice, and boosts the size of his penis and testes. In adulthood, it keeps a mans muscles and bones strong and maintains his interest in sex. In short, its what makes a man a man (at least physically).

After age 30, most men begin to experience a gradual decline in testosterone. A decrease in sex drive sometimes accompanies the drop in testosterone, leading many men to mistakenly believe that their loss of interest in sex is simply due to aging.

Low testosterone can cause an obvious lack of male characteristics, or it can cause vague symptoms such as fatigue and diminished sex drive.

The symptoms of low testosterone (or low T) in males can vary depending on the cause of the low level and the age at which it occurs.

In male hypogonadism, a condition in which the body is unable to produce normal amounts of the hormone testosterone, symptoms may include underdeveloped genitalia, delayed puberty, and a lack of secondary sexual characteristics such as a deeper voice and facial hair.

In middle-aged or older men experiencing age-related decreases in testosterone, symptoms may include low energy, depressed mood, low sex drive, and erectile dysfunction (ED or impotence).

No matter what the cause, symptoms alone are not enough for a diagnosis of low testosterone: A blood test is needed to confirm that a mans testosterone level is, indeed, low.

Testosterone can be delivered to the body in a variety of ways:
