Male Hormone Deficiency: Recognize the Symptoms, Find the Cure

Fatigue, Slow Thinking, and Decreased Vitality

Did you know that one of the first signs of low testosterone levels in men is slower thinking and decision-making? Other early symptoms include forgetfulness, easy fatigue, lack of energy, irritability, abdominal weight gain, and fat accumulation in various parts of the body. Even with regular resistance training, some individuals may notice that muscle growth is slow or minimal compared to others.

Additional symptoms can include insomnia, decreased sexual desire, partial erectile dysfunction, lack of confidence, and a reduced interest in competition.

These signs suggest that you might be experiencing male hormone deficiency. If left untreated, this condition can lead to more severe health issues, such as:

  • Erectile dysfunction (ED).
  • Insulin resistance.
  • Osteoporosis.
  • Cardiovascular diseases.

When Does Male Hormone Deficiency Begin?

This condition can start as early as the early 30s and is influenced by various factors, such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, chronic stress, lack of exercise, and genetic predisposition.

How to Test Testosterone Levels

Testing can be done in two main ways:

  1. Blood Test -The most common method. Results are typically available within 1-2 days.
  2. Saliva Test -Blood tests are widely used and can be conducted at anti-aging clinics or private hospitals. Even individuals engaged in resistance or weight training, including bodybuilders, often test their hormone levels periodically.

Important Note:
For accurate results, testosterone levels should be tested in the morning before 11:00 AM. On the day of the test, ensure you are in normal health without any illnesses.

What Are Healthy Testosterone Levels?

Male hormone deficiency is also known as Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome, Andropause, or Androgen Deficiency in Adult Men. The definition and diagnostic criteria vary across countries, but commonly, levels below 230–350 ng/dL indicate a deficiency.
For optimal health, morning testosterone levels should range between 500–700 ng/dL. If levels fall below this range, lifestyle changes can often help increase testosterone naturally. However, if levels are below 350 ng/dL, consulting a physician is recommended.

How to Boost Testosterone Levels

1. Hormone Therapy

  • Using bioidentical hormones (natural hormone replacements) can help restore balance. This can include intramuscular injections (weekly or quarterly, depending on blood test results) or external hormone creams.
  • Note: Always consult a doctor before starting hormone therapy. Blood tests and physical evaluations are essential before treatment.

2. Resistance Training

  • Regular weight training is the most effective exercise for boosting testosterone levels. Studies show that men who engage in resistance training have higher testosterone levels than those who do not.

3. Diet

  • Increase protein intake: 1.2–2 grams per kilogram of body weight, depending on daily activity levels.
  • Healthy fats: Include coconut oil, fermented dairy products like yogurt and cheese, fish oil, flaxseeds, chia seeds, almonds, walnuts, and avocados.
  • Vitamins and minerals: Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Vitamin B3, Vitamin D, Zinc, Selenium, and Resveratrol (to be discussed in detail later).
  • Reduce caffeine: Limit coffee, tea, and cocoa.
  • Limit alcohol consumption.

4. Quit Smoking

Smoking negatively impacts testosterone levels and overall health.

5. Choose Comfortable Clothing

Tight underwear can affect testicular function. Opt for boxers instead to maintain a warm environment conducive to testosterone production.

6. Engage in Stimulating Activities
Activities such as watching action movies, socializing, and trying new hobbies can help boost testosterone levels.

Take Action Early

If you experience any of the symptoms mentioned above, consult a doctor for a testosterone test. Early intervention can effectively address these symptoms. Many patients who balance their hormones report feeling younger, more energetic, mentally sharp, and more confident.
