Low Testosterone
Treatment for Low Testosterone in Men Near Phoenix & Gilbert, AZ
Do you often feel tired, have trouble concentrating, or find your sex drive to be low or non-existent? Low testosterone in men (low T) affects approximately 40 percent of males over the age of 45 and 14 million American men overall.
Also known as hypogonadism, low T is associated with andropause, which is the male equivalent to menopause in women. In men, testosterone influences more than muscle growth and sex drive; it also plays an important role in the health of your brain, kidneys, bones, and liver.
