Testosterone is a hormone that is essential for men’s health and well-being. It plays a role in everything from sex drive to muscle mass to bone density. However, testosterone levels naturally decline with age. By the time men reach their 40s, they may have half the testosterone levels they had in their 20s. 

Low testosterone, also known as hypogonadism, can have a number of negative consequences for men's health, including:

  • Low sex drive: Testosterone is essential for sexual desire. If you have low testosterone, you may experience a decrease in your sex drive.
