How Do I know If I have Low Testosterone?

The only way to know for sure is by having a hormone panel, a blood test. It’s possible to have all the symptoms of low Testosterone but find it is actually a case of high prolactin or estrogen. Ongoing bloodwork is the only way to fine tune your dosage and make sure hormone and vitamin levels are in sync.

 

What are symptoms of low Testosterone?

Men, along with some women, with low testosterone commonly feel tired or fatigued during the day while experiencing poor sleep quality at night. A person’s short term memory may also suffer from low T. One of the most common causes of Erectile Dysfunction is a lack of adequate hormone levels.
