Many people are aware that hormones are necessary for the majority of our bodily functions, including our sexual life. However most of them don\u2019t know how hormones work. Nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and proteins are necessary for our cells to function correctly, hormones are chemical messengers telling our cells how to function. Without hormones our cells would be like a team without a supervisor – leaning on shovels, trying to look busy but not actually doing anything. What will happen to your cells without testosterone? <\/span><\/p>

Loss of competitive spirit<\/b><\/h3>

One of the first symptoms of low testosterone levels is a gradual loss of your previously energetic lifestyle and competitive spirit. The motivation and desire that once drove you forward seems to be missing. You may also notice uncomfortable stiffness and permanent aches in your muscles or joints, making everyday movements harder. <\/span><\/p>

Body composition changes<\/b><\/h3>

Testosterone is absolutely essential for muscle growth and preservation. Low levels of the hormone may lead to loss of muscle mass and decrease in strength. Low testosterone also contributes to an increase in body fat mass, especially visceral fat, which is linked to metabolic problems. <\/span><\/p>

Tiredness<\/b><\/h3>

Tiredness caused by low testosterone levels may well exceed normal feelings of tiredness. Men may feel permanently tired, without any energy and become easily exhausted by normal daily activities. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tIt is important to know and understand the symptoms of low testosterone levels in order to realise there is something happening with your body and that it may not be only temporary. Many men don\u2019t realise that they might be suffering from low testosterone levels and that it may be having a negative effect on the quality of their life. \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Mood swings<\/b><\/h3>

Mood swings may often be quite subtle and therefore not so noticeable to men suffering from low testosterone levels but people around them do notice it. Men might appear moody or as if they have suddenly lost their sense of humour. <\/span><\/p>

Depression<\/b><\/h3>

Everybody sometimes feels \u201ca bit sad\u201d. If you notice that you also miss the joy that was once present in your life or that sadness is starting to affect your everyday life, you may be suffering from depression. <\/span><\/p>

Reduced libido<\/b><\/h3>

Testosterone is responsible for your sex drive and plays a vital role in stimulating your sexual desire. If you feel like your libido is below average or non-existent, it could be due to having low testosterone levels. Men may notice not only low sex drive but also erectile dysfunction. <\/span><\/p>

Other perhaps not so obvious symptoms of low testosterone levels include low sperm count, infertility, higher risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis due to lower bone density, high blood pressure and others. <\/span><\/p>

It is important to know and understand the symptoms of low testosterone levels in order to realise there is something happening with your body and that it may not be only temporary. Many men don\u2019t realise that they might be suffering from low testosterone levels and that this may have a negative effect on the quality of their life. Symptoms such as low libido, tiredness, loss of muscle mass, weight gain, mood swings and problems with concentration should not be ignored. The best course of action is to undergo an expert testosterone levels screening<\/a>, where medical experts will evaluate your hormone levels and based on the results will recommend a suitable therapy or supplementation. Tailored therapy, unique to your needs, leads to significant improvement in health and overall well-being. Remember that health is your most valuable asset, so it’s important to pay attention to the signals your body is sending you. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
