Understanding Hormone Deficiencies
Hormone deficiencies occur when glands in the endocrine system do not produce adequate amounts of hormones like testosterone. This affects proper body function and causes unpleasant symptoms:
- Low sex drive
- Erectile dysfunction
- Loss of muscle mass
- Increased body fat
- Hair loss
- Mood changes - depression, irritability etc.
Diagnosing deficiencies requires blood tests to check hormone levels. If they are below normal ranges, hormone replacement therapy can help restore wellbeing and vitality.
