Two days.
yes from your gp after blood tests to show you have low toresterone
The kidney's don't produce testosterone, kidney's filter the blood stream, and pass the waste to your bladder. Testosterone is produced in the testicles.
i guess injections since it gets into the blood stream much faster
The impact of injections into the spending stream is that injections add to main income spending stream in economy . Often times , people think of government spending as an injection , but that is misleading . For the government to ''inject'' into the spending stream , it must first take something from it . As you would if you were to donate blood . Your blood cannot be donated to another body if it has not yet been taken from you . Injections are an addition to the income of firms which do not normally arise from the expenditure of households e.g. changes in investment , government spending or exports .
Injections are because they go straight into your blood stream, whereas tablets take a while to work in and break down.
If after having a blood test to check your testosterone levels (best done in the morning,when your testosterone levels are highest) you find your testo levels are low, I would advise talking to your MD. about testosterone replacement. After taking self injections of testosterone cypionate weekly (painless) I find I have much more energy,libido, and a better sense of wellbeing. These injections are much cheaper than the gels and patches. One point about the testosterone levels. The range that is considered "normal" is very wide-in that one person of the same age can have almost 10 times the amount of total testosterone and both fall in the normal range?
Testosterone is the male hormone and doesn't have a blood level.
Baldness is hereditary, and its caused by naturally occurring high levels of testosterone in the blood stream of that individual. The high levels of testosterone cause a diminished blood irrigation to the follicles of the hair on the scalp, therefore the hair grow ever thinner and weaker and finally stops growing when the follicle dries up and dies.
"Gay men, in general, don't take testosterone. Back in the old days, when people thought they could change homosexuality, 'Doctors used to treat gay men with testosterone injections, until it became clear adult homosexuals don't have blood hormone levels that differ significantly from heterosexuals.'" What is the scientific fact of hormone levels of normal vs. deviant men?
you have to have a blood test taken to find the testosterone levels in the body
Low testosterone is a VERY common cause of erectile dysfunction and low libido in men. A blood or saliva test will measure the available Testosterone and levels below 600 in men would be strong indicators for needing some more Testosterone. There are several ways to get Testosterone help for stronger sex drive and better erections. Creams & Patches don't do much, Injections will give you a terrible spike & roid rage, Pellet therapy is expensive but works best. Do a search for Hormone Replacement Therapy & look for Pellet therapy providers.
The normal FREE testosterone level (not total testosterone) ranges from 15-25.
