What is Testosterone?

Testosterone is a hormone that is produced by the human body and is important for the development and maintenance of male characteristics.

It plays a key role in the growth and development of the male reproductive system, as well as muscle mass, bone density, and body hair.

Testosterone is also involved in the production of red blood cells and the regulation of mood and energy levels.

Some potential benefits of testosterone include improved sexual function, increased muscle mass and strength, improved bone density, and improved mood and cognition

Testosterone reaches its peak during puberty and begins to decline by age 30. However, in the past 20 years we have seen a decline in men’s testosterone levels unseen in documented history.
