What Is Low Testosterone
As men reach the age of 30 and beyond, their production of testosterone gradually decreases. This gradual decline in hormone production, often referred to as andropause, unfolds over the course of several decades. In fact, it's typical for testosterone levels to decrease by approximately 10% per decade.
However, if there is a sudden and significant drop in testosterone levels, especially in individuals with a pre-existing borderline low testosterone level, it can lead to the earlier onset of symptoms, which may be a cause for concern.
- Are you facing challenges when it comes to shedding excess weight, particularly in the abdominal area?

- Do you sense a decrease in your overall performance or feel like you're not at your best?
