It governs the development of secondary sex characteristics in the male. Sufficient testosterone is essential for normal libido, fertility, and potency of the male. The testes (testicles) make It. Women have testosterone too but in much smaller amounts than in men.

Testosterone exerts anabolic effects on muscularity and can affect behavior and aggressiveness.

What can go wrong with testosterone levels?

For many reasons, testosterone can become and stay too low. Less often, Itlevels can become too high. When this hormone is not in balance, health problems can result.

Low testosterone

Early symptoms (changes you feel) and signs (abnormalities that your doctor finds) of low testosterone in men include:

• A drop in sex drive
• Poor erections
• Low sperm count
• Enlarged or tender breasts

Later, low It can lead to decreased muscle and bone strength, less energy, and lower fertility.

Some things can temporarily lower testosterone, for instance, too much exercise, poor nutrition, or serious illness. Living a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a good diet helps maintain normal testosterone levels.

High testosterone

When young boys have too much It, they can start puberty too early (before age 9). Some rare conditions, such as certain types of tumors, cause boys to make testosterone earlier than normal.

Young boys also can have too much testosterone if they touch testosterone gel that an adult man is using for treatment

How do you know what your testosterone level is?

To measure your testosterone level, your doctor can order a blood test. The test should be done in the morning between 7:00 and 10:00. If the result is not normal, you should repeat the test to make sure of the result. In healthy men, testosterone levels can change a lot from day to day, so a second test could be normal.
