Regain energy, drive, and focus
Testosterone gradually declines with age, and for some men the drop is significant enough to affect energy, mood, strength, and libido.
These changes are often dismissed as normal aging, but low testosterone is a treatable medical condition.
At KDR, we use lab testing and careful evaluation to build a plan that helps you feel like yourself again.
Schedule a consultationWhat is low testosterone?
Low testosterone, sometimes called hypogonadism or andropause, occurs when the body doesn’t produce enough testosterone to support normal function. Testosterone affects muscle mass, bone density, energy, mood, red blood cell production, and sexual health. Levels naturally decline after about age 30, but some men experience symptoms earlier or more severely.
What causes low testosterone?
Contributing factors include:
- Aging
- Excess body weight
- Chronic stress
- Poor sleep
- Certain medical conditions or medications
Lifestyle changes can help, but many men also benefit from medical treatment.
Signs of low testosterone
Symptoms often develop gradually.
Common signs include:
- Low energy
- Reduced libido
- Loss of muscle
- Weight gain around the middle
- Low mood or irritability
A simple blood test can show whether low testosterone may be contributing to your symptoms.
