Men's Health
Hormone imbalance in men can occur at any age and is as common among men as it is among women. Men who choose to pursue male hormone replacement therapy experience a number of benefits, including improved strength and muscle mass, healthier sex drive and performance, more energy, better sleep, and better weight management.
Symptoms of Hormone Imbalance in Men
Men may experience low levels of any number of hormones, but low testosterone is the most common. Testosterone production naturally reduces in men as they age, making it difficult to enjoy the benefits of natural testosterone later in life.

-
Muscle Loss

Weight Gain

Low Energy
-
Gynecomastia (Man Boobs)

Poor Sleep

Low testosterone, also known as low T or andropause, is classically observed in men at middle age. Research suggests that around age 45, nearly 40 percent of men will begin to experience symptoms of low testosterone. Testosterone levels begin to decline in a man around his late 20s and recede over time. By age 40, most men begin to notice at least one or two symptoms of andropause or low testosterone.
Many men will brush off these symptoms as side effects of aging and delay or never seek treatment. Low levels of testosterone are risky to a man’s health. A number of studies have confirmed that low testosterone is correlated with an increased risk of disease and seeking treatment to achieve hormonal balance can support reduced risk of disease.
