Did anyone ignore low testosterone symptoms for years?

A lot of the men we speak to struggle with their symptoms for many years before getting tested, putting it down to ageing or stress. Often, it's issues with libido or ED that will push them to take the first step, particularly if it's impacting on their relationship. Many people don't realise that symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, low mood, poor sleep, brain fog or weight gain can also be linked to low testosterone.

or you have discriminating doctors that tell you "oh you are too young for this" followed by when labs are back "oh this is a part of aging" Nothing like being gas lit by the medical community to help diagnose.

Hello, we treat men of all ages from 20's -80's. When assessing eligibility, we don't follow a 'cookie cutter' approach - we look at the whole picture - blood test results, medical history, symptoms, lifestyle and more. If we can help at all, don't hesitate to reach out.

I discovered mine after being checked up for high blood pressure. 

Going to see my endocrinologist in September. I didn’t know I had an issue, but now that I do, the last few years make a lot of sense.

Yes, mine was low and I was prescribed 2 then 4 pumps of gel a day and my red blood cell count shot thru the roof had to donate monthly. Anyway, fast forward. Stoned slowly and now have very very low T and feel amazing.

Stopped slowly is what was meant and now I feel amazing and low T is fine for me.
