Look out for the following symptoms as signs of Low-T or TD:
- reduced sex drive
- erectile dysfunction (loss of morning erections is often the first sign)
- low sperm count
- enlarged breast tissue (this is due to oestrogen imbalance – particularly common over the age of 40 when andropause – the male menopause – occurs)
- loss of body hair
- loss of muscle bulk
- loss of strength
- weight gain (leads to further loss of testosterone)
- depression and moodiness (low T is often misdiagnosed as depression)
- frequent urination
- lack of energy
