Low testosterone in men can be restored by rebuilding its physiological concentration through testosterone supplementation therapy, correcting testosterone deficiency, improving symptoms, and thus preventing complications associated with long-term testosterone deficiency.
Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome (TDS) is characterized by a decrease in serum testosterone levels, but lacks typical clinical manifestations, which can cause dysfunctions in various organs and systems, such as hot flashes (bursts of fever), depression, insomnia, mood swings, irritability, impotence, and decreased libido.
Different degrees of testosterone deficiency often cause different clinical symptoms, but there is no necessary link between symptoms and testosterone levels.
There are more drug dosage forms for testosterone supplementation, among which testosterone undecanoate (oral) is currently the drug of choice for testosterone supplementation therapy due to its good fat solubility, which can be combined with celiac particles and be absorbed and released into the body’s circulating lymphatic fluid, with no obvious liver toxicity for long-term use.
However, those with prostate cancer, significant erythrocytosis, untreated sleep apnea, and severe heart failure should not be treated with testosterone.
Testosterone supplementation therapy needs to be carried out under the guidance of a doctor. In addition to medication, appropriate enhancement of physical exercise and maintaining a reasonable lifestyle can improve testosterone levels.
