Testosterone Deficiency

Have you started to notice changes to your body and daily life, but you cannot seem to pinpoint a cause? Do you feel limited or less like yourself, but you have not actively made any lifestyle changes that could be to blame? As you age and go through life, your body is constantly going through changes, and hormone levels are often fluctuating. Testosterone deficiency is a common problem, particularly for men. If you are concerned that this could be impacting your life, we recommend a consultation with our team at Boston Vitality in Stoneham, MA.

What Is Testosterone Deficiency?

Testosterone deficiency is a condition related to a lower level of testosterone because the body is unable to adequately produce the hormone. Sometimes referred to as “Low T,” this condition impacts both men and women, especially as they age, and it often creates issues related for a healthy, functioning sex drive.

While testosterone deficiency may manifest differently for individuals, common signs or symptoms include:

  • Decrease of energy or endurance
  • Difficulty falling or staying asleep
  • Difficulty focusing
  • Feelings of depression or anxiety
  • Frequent mood changes or irritability
  • Hair loss
  • Inability to achieve and maintain an erection
  • Joint pain
  • Loss of muscle mass
  • Lower sex drive or libido
  • Memory loss
  • Unexplainable weight gain

In addition to noticable signs, diagnosis of conditions such as bone density loss, diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, or high blood pressure can also indicate Low T. A consultation with our team in Massachusetts can help understand how testosterone deficiency may be impacting you and your overall health.

What Causes Testosterone Deficiency?

There is not one singular cause of testosterone deficiency. While it is commonly associated with aging, it is a condition that a person can be born with. There are also a few causes related to various parts of the body not functioning as well as they could or should be.

A common cause for men with Low T is the testicles not being able to produce enough of the hormones needed for the body to function as it should. While this could be caused by natural body processes such as aging or chromosomal issues, it can also happen as a result of cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation.

If a pituitary gland is not properly, it may not be receiving the signals necessary for the testes or ovaries to produce the right amounts of hormones. This can happen as a natural result of various diseases, disorders, or medications. One common cause of this type of change in testosterone production is living with HIV/AIDS.

As causes of testosterone deficiency can very, it is crucial to be transparent with our team in the Boston area with a full medical history.

What Can I Do About It?

There are a variety of treatment options available to combat symptoms and implications of a testosterone deficiency. A consultation with our team in Stoneham can start the process.

The combination of a blood test, physical examination, and review of health history can help identify hormone level changes or deficiencies. Once a diagnosis has been made, a recommendation can be made for a treatment option based on your condition, overall health, and lifestyle. Your preferences can also be taken into account before a decision is made among all the different treatments, which include options like injections, pills, creams, and more.
