Andropause is the silent killer. Lowering mood, energy levels and weight gain.
Keep in mind, if you're adding exogenous testosterone, the bodies natural homeostatic mechanisms will seek to convert it into other molecules to maintain a balance. The hormone estrogen is one of these (being only 2 chemical steps away from testosterone) and converts from testosterone into estrogen via Aromatase.
So, if you're taking testosterone, also include an aromatase inhibitor (AI). The best natural one is "Resveratrol", it's the compound in red wine that gives it all it's health boosting benefits. The reason why you'd want a natural source is because synthetic AI's have the unwanted side effect of completely inihibiting estrogen conversion and low estrogen has undesirable side effects (such as joint pain).
If you can follow through on the above, you're well on you're way to amazing masculine health in your older years.
