Androgen Deficiency

Wed,21 March 2012

The majority of men with androgen deficiency may not be receiving treatment despite having sufficient access to care, according to a new article.

Androgen deficiency in men means the body has lower than normal amounts of male hormones, including testosterone, according to background information in the article. Although prescriptions for testosterone therapy for aging men have increased in recent years, treatment patterns for androgen deficiency are not clearly understood in community-dwelling U.S. males.

Low Testosterone Level

Tue,31 January 2012



Among men with erectile dysfunction, those who also have low testosterone levels face a higher than normal risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, a new study has found.

In a second study, the same team of researchers also found a link between obesity and impairment of blood flow to the penis, which, in turn, is linked to cardiovascular disease in erectile dysfunction patients.

In the first study, researchers led by Dr. Giovanni Corona, of the University of Florence, examined the testosterone levels of 1,687

Testosterone Gels

Mon,05 December 2011

Testosterone gels may offer frail, old men a chance to regain some of their youthful vigor, but the effects fade away as soon as they stop treatment, British researchers report. While hardly surprising, the findings slash hopes that a short hormone boost would break the vicious circle of muscle loss, fatigue and disability that blunts the quality of life for some seniors.

The exact medical definition of frailty is still up in the air, so it's hard to say how many elderly are affected, although it's likely to be a minority.

But for those men and women, the consequences can

High Protein Supplements And Testosterone

Wed,26 October 2011

The University of Adelaide will be embarking on a new study that will look into the benefits of providing nutritional supplements and small doses of hormones to elderly people.

Study leader Professor Ian Chapman from the university said that 43% of the elderly who receive home care are under nourished while the government also has to spend substantial amounts to provide the necessary care for hospitalization.

For the study over 200 people over 65 and clinically under nourished would be recruited. They will come from Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. Professor Chapman said, “I

Low Testosterone

Wed,26 October 2011

A visit to the local doctor for a general health check and blood tests to accurately test hormone levels may be the first step towards an improved quality of life. Once properly diagnosed, excellent treatments for androgen deficiency are available.  The benefits of testosterone therapy for men with this deficiency are proven and the risks are known.
Low energy, mood swings, irritability, poor concentration, reduced muscle strength or bone density, and a lack of interest in sex can be signs of low testosterone levels, a condition also known as androgen deficiency.
