Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Greater Tampa
Your energy, stamina and sex drive have dropped, your waistline has expanded, and you haven’t had a good night’s sleep in what seems like forever. Hormone imbalance is no joke.
These are all symptoms of Andropause, otherwise known as male menopause.
Similar to menopause in women, for men, andropause arrives when there is a drastic drop in hormone levels — specifically testosterone. While total testosterone may not drop much, free testosterone, or the active form of testosterone, drops significantly with age, while estrogen levels increase. In fact, the average 60-year-old male has more circulating estrogen in his bloodstream than the average 60-year-old female!
This hormone imbalance can cause a variety of unpleasant symptoms: diminished energy, reduced libido, decreasing muscle mass, abdominal weight gain, depression, reduced cognitive function, and an increased risk of heart disease.
