A recent large study of roughly 83,000 men with low testosterone shows that the men who normalized their T levels were 56 percent less likely to die during the follow-up period than the men who didn’t treat their low testosterone.
They were also significantly less likely to have a stroke or heart attack.
Guys, if your T levels are low, stop fooling around and do what it takes to bring them up to normal, whether that’s lifestyle changes or T therapy. It really can make the difference between life and death.
The actual study. Articles that summarize it here and here.
Well i just convinced my dr to check my T level because i thought it might be low. I just got my results and i got a T level of 297. I dont know what my next step is but that is lower than i ever expected to see. Any advice on where to start or what to shoot for?
@Bumble —
My experience has been that most guys feel their best somewhere in their 800-900’s. Mid-500’s is where you start getting the heart benefits.
Most importantly, don’t panic. No guy wants to hear that his T levels are low, but it is so easy to address the issue. You just have to find a good anti-aging doctor who knows what they’re doing.
You may also want to take a look at my book, I Want Sex, He Wants Fries. I originally wrote it for women in low T marriages, but it’s turned out that it’s been read by as many guys as women.
Let me know how it goes! : )
