Dr. Jan-Frederik Kramers from the Department of Andrology at University Hospital Münster in Germany confirmed that in a healthy man's life, testosterone levels slowly decrease within the normal range. He explained that symptoms of testosterone deficiency include: decreased libido and potency, decreased bone density (osteoporosis), sleep disturbances, excessive sweating, and constant fatigue. Kramers also noted that besides age, testosterone deficiency is linked to being overweight (especially around the abdomen), lack of exercise, and psychological stress. If these symptoms appear, Dr. Kramers advises visiting a general practitioner or urologist. First, it is necessary to determine if there is a testosterone deficiency, which is done by measuring testosterone levels through a blood test. If a deficiency is confirmed, treatment involves taking testosterone supplements while maintaining a healthy lifestyle based on a balanced diet, exercise, and quitting smoking and alcohol.
