It impacts bodily functions from your muscle mass to your sexual development to your appearance.<\/p>\n<p>So what happens when your body isn\u2019t quite producing enough testosterone? This post will discuss symptoms of low testosterone (or T) levels to keep an eye out for.<\/p>\n<p>Males of all ages can experience low \u2013 or changing \u2013 testosterone levels, but <strong>it is more common as you age<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>About 2 out of 10 men over the age of 60 experience low testosterone levels, while that number increases to 3 out of 10 men over the age of 70.<\/p>\n<p>Here at EvexiPEL, <strong>we talk to a lot of men experiencing an imbalance of testosterone<\/strong>. More often than not, it\u2019s solvable with our patented hormone pellet therapy.<\/p>\n<p>But for us to help you get your T levels back on track, you have to come to us with a problem. And for you to come to us with a problem, it helps to know some of the symptoms of a testosterone imbalance.<\/p>\n<h2>Symptoms of Low Testosterone<\/h2>\n<p>Signs of slightly low testosterone levels can be subtle, but <strong>symptoms will increase in severity if your testosterone levels drop more significantly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Decreased Sex Drive<\/h3>\n<p>This\u00a0sign can happen <strong>naturally as men age<\/strong>, but if you are under sixty and your sex drive seems to be abnormally low, this could mean your T levels are off.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Hair Loss<\/h3>\n<p>Once again, <strong>hair loss can be a fairly normal function of aging<\/strong>, so this one can be a little hard to detect as a symptom of low testosterone.<\/p>\n<p>However, one of the functions that testosterone has is hair production \u2013 so a halt in hair production could be a sign of not enough T being produced in your body.<\/p>\n<p>If you are experiencing hair loss along with other symptoms of low T, that could be a warning sign.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Erectile Dysfunction<\/h3>\n<p>Testosterone doesn\u2019t exactly cause erections on its own, but it is an important component in that bodily function.<\/p>\n<p>The hormone <strong>testosterone stimulates brain receptors to produce nitric oxide<\/strong>, which is the molecule responsible for triggering the chemical reactions that lead to an erection.<\/p>\n<p>There are other health issues that can lead to erectile difficulties, so if you\u2019re experiencing this, it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean you have low T levels. If you\u2019re unsure of the cause of your difficulty with erections, we\u2019d be more than happy to consult!<\/p>\n<h3>4. Extreme Fatigue<\/h3>\n<p>Fatigue is a prevalent symptom of hormonal imbalance, and low testosterone levels are no exception.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re getting plenty of sleep, and aren\u2019t undergoing any significant lifestyle changes, but are still <strong>experiencing unusually low energy levels<\/strong>, it\u2019s possible this could be related to a testosterone imbalance.<\/p>\n<h3>5. More Body Fat<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Low testosterone levels will often impact your physical appearance<\/strong>, and one of the most obvious manifestations of this is in an increase in body fat.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, some men with low T levels will develop gynecomastia, which is an increase in breast tissue, resulting from an imbalance of testosterone and estrogen.<\/p>\n<h2>We Can Help<\/h2>\n<p>These are just a few symptoms you could be experiencing if you\u2019re suffering from a testosterone imbalance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hormonal imbalances can be very personalized<\/strong> so you may be experiencing all or none of these symptoms, and still have low testosterone levels.<\/p>\n<p>At EvexiPEL, <a href=\"https:\/\/c1mdevsite.com\/evexipel.com\/men\/\">we pride ourselves in talking to our clients<\/a> and creating personalized treatment plans \u2013 we\u2019ll cater to whatever low T levels look like for you!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/photos\/hair-man-hair-loss-head-248050\/\">Image attribution<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article Reviewed By The Medical Faculty and Advisory Review Board Testosterone is very important to the human body, and specifically, to the male human body.
