    Testosterone is the key to the development of distinct male characteristics. Low-T is the insufficient production of testosterone in both men and women. Though both of the opposite genders produce testosterone, however, males produce a lot more than the females because testosterone is required for the development of specific physical and sexual male characteristics. To consult for male reproductive health issues and diseases book an appointment with the best sexologist in Karachi, Lahore or other main cities of Pakistan visit Marham.pk.

    Testosterone is primarily produced in the testicles and is responsible for:

    • Building muscle and bone mass

    • Sperm production

    • Increasing bone density
    • Red blood cells production

    In a normal growing male, testosterone reaches a peak during adolescence. Once reaching the age of 30, your testosterone level declines gradually by 1% a year. It is a normal part of aging.

    Treatment of Low-T:

    The low testosterone level in case of hypogonadism is treated with testosterone therapy. There are various ways to administer testosterone therapy:

    • Gels: Applied directly to the skin. The skin absorbs testosterone through the pores.
    • Skin patches (transdermal): Normally applied once a day. They are easy to use and seem to be clean.
    • Pellets: They are surgically implanted into the soft tissue to slowly release testosterone that is taken up by blood.
    • Injections: Testosterone can also be directly injected into the body.

    Testosterone levels can also be adjusted naturally by having an adequate sleep, maintaining a healthy weight, and living an active life. A good routine and self-care always help in resolving most of the health-related problems.
