Low Testosterone and Low Sex Drive

Low Sex Drive, ED or Erectile Dysfunction. Many men, after 35 or so, lose their ability to have and maintain an erection - often they have a hard time rising to the occasion and the daily stresses of life become harder to handle. Depression can set in, bursts of anger and mood swings are not uncommon and it has only been recently that men's menopause - andropause has received attention and recognition.

Diagnosing Male Menopause. Doctors and scientists are well aware of the ramifications due to the absence of estrogen and progesterone in women. In the meantime, men have experienced their own hormonal induced weaknesses,symptoms and health issues due to low testosterone levels. Since hormone levels drop in men over time, the process and appearance of hormone related symptoms happens gradually.

• The fact that it comes on so gradually, is the reason why many men accommodate to the changes caused by low t (low testosterone levels). When the change happens most men start to feel “burnt out at work”, feel as if they are having a “mid-life crisis” or are “just getting old”.
• Hormone treatment is not obvious to most men. Men do not talk or complain, as it is not the "manly thing to do". Men simply struggle with their low t symptoms and aren't sure of the various treatment options available to help them increase their testosterone levels.
• At first they turn to vitamins, male enhancement products or even testosterone supplements. However as testoterone levels become very low, the symptoms become severe and only HRT or TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy) will help. Excellent ED or Erectile Dysfunction products like Viagara® and Cialis® require sufficient levels of testosterone in a man's system in order to work well.
• Male ar suddenly presented with a reality check during the late thirties to mid-forties. Men are told that the problems they are experiencing are all part of aging and there is not much a doctor can do, and most men simply do “settle” into old age.

At AAG Health Miami Testosterone Therapy is our Specialty. Our Testosterone Replacement (TRT) patients talk openly about their problems including loss of sexual drive, sexual performance issues and loss of desire that may be affecting their relationships. It is important to discuss what they are going through with their physician and although each of them might admit that they had difficulty making that first call for help - once they contact a hormone replacement clinic and get treated, most men are happy they did. An experienced hormone physician is the person a man needs to have a frank discussion with even if he still can't easily admit or talk to their friends or family about their dysfunctions associated with low testosterone.
