Testosterone hormone replacement therapy(THRT).

What is testosterone ?

Testosterone is a steroid hormone primarily produced in the testes in males and, to a lesser extent, in the ovaries and adrenal glands in females. It plays a crucial role in the development of male reproductive tissues, the increase of muscle and bone mass, and the growth of body hair. In both males and females, testosterone is important for overall health and well-being, including the maintenance of libido, energy levels, and immune function. Key Functions and Effects of Testosterone:

  1. Development of Male Characteristics: During puberty in males, testosterone is responsible for the development of secondary sexual characteristics such as deepening of the voice, facial and body hair growth, and increased muscle mass.
  2. Muscle and Bone Mass: Testosterone promotes the growth of muscle tissue and the maintenance of bone density. It helps in protein synthesis, which is vital for muscle repair and growth.
  3. Sex Drive and Performance: It plays a significant role in libido (sex drive) and can influence sexual performance in both males and females.
  4. Mood and Energy Levels: Testosterone has an impact on mood and energy. Low levels of testosterone can be associated with fatigue, depression, and irritability.
  5. Red Blood Cell Production: Testosterone stimulates the production of red blood cells through the bone marrow, which is crucial for oxygen transport in the body.

Testosterone Levels:

  • Normal Ranges:
    • For adult males: 300 to 1,000 ng/dL (nanograms per deciliter)
    • For adult females: 15 to 70 ng/dL
  • Factors Affecting Levels:
    • Age: Testosterone levels typically decline with age.
