The discussion around hormones is largely centered around women, but truthfully men also suffer from hormonal imbalance, and it’s much more common than many realize.
In fact, beginning at age 35 a man will experience a decline in testosterone production at a rate of up to 10% loss in production a year.
Signs of Low Testosterone Levels
Men who suffer from low testosterone or hormone imbalance may suffer from a variety of:
- Mental symptoms
- Physical symptoms
- Sexual dysfunction symptoms
Conversely, some men with hormone imbalance don’t experience any symptoms at all.
Mental Symptoms
- Fatigue, lethargy, and lack of motivation.
- Mood swings, anxiety, and depression.
- Feeling burned out and past your prime.
Physical Symptoms
- Stubborn belly fat, weight gain, and food cravings.
- Loss of muscle strength.
- Hair loss.
Sexual Dysfunctional Symptoms
- Loss of libido.
- Inability to achieve or maintain an erection.
- Prostate discomfort.
If you recognize any of the symptoms above BHRT may be the solution you need!
Complement BHRT With These Solutions
To complement BHRT, there are completely natural solutions you can implement to boost your testosterone levels.
1. Eat More Dietary Fat
This may seem contradictory to those who are trying to stay in shape, but studies have shown that eating the right fats is good and necessary for our bodies.
Foods like olive oil, avocado, egg yolks, and dark chocolate are all good examples.
2. Train Correctly
Exercising is important, but there are more effective exercises and tools to use. For example, multijoint exercises like squats, deadlifts, and bench presses, all with free weights are the best option for boosting testosterone.
3. Quality Sleep
This can be hard, especially because hormonal imbalances can affect our sleep, but if you skip out on your zzz’s, it’s time to change that.
Craft a daily schedule that allows for a solid 7-9 hours of sleep each night.
4. Reduce Stress
We know, it’s easier said than done, but making lifestyle changes to reduce stress is key to overall health.
Long-term stress raises cortisol levels which reduces testosterone. Evaluate your life and remove stress when possible.
5. Take Supplements
The right vitamin and mineral supplements can be just what your body needs to start producing natural testosterone levels again.
Lucky for you, we will provide a comprehensive approach to your health, which may include a combo of BHRT and supplements.
