Symptom utav att sluta runka!

[confused...]

Potensproblem bland äldre har nog med hälsomässiga saker att göra främst. Dålig kondition, högt blodtryck, dålig blodcirkulation, stress etc. Detta påverkar visserligen även testosteronnivån i blodet men är nog i sig större anledningar till potensproblemen.

Lågt testo gör att kardiovaskulära systemet blir svagare/dåligare och slits ut snabbare, man lägger lättare på sig fett i magen runt organen(öl mage), man får lägre energinivåer, kroppen återhämtar sig långsamre osv osv osv. Snarare låga testo nivån som påverkar blodcirkulation etc och skapar stress på grund utav att kroppen återhämtar sig långsammare som pluss i kanten på att man även har mycket lägre energinivåer än tvärt om. Detta som jag tar upp nu är den största anledningen till att folk med lågt testo får testosteron utskrivet av läkare, dvs hälsomässiga orsaker, kroppen tar stryk av att gå runt med låga nivåer.

Du har fel helt enkelt, ge vilken 40-50åring som helst en TRT behandling så att hans testo nivåer blir på samma nivå som en tonåring och han blir både pigg som en 20åring och kuken står som om han vore 15år igen.

Men ja, sen om man missköter sin kropp så är det klart att den slits ut fortare och testo nivåerna kan bli lägre än om man tar hand om sin kropp, men det gäller 20åringar lika mycket som 40-50åringar. Att testo nivåerna sjunker när man kommer upp i åldrarna är helt enkelt en av dom största bovarna i dramat till varför äldre män blir trötta,slöa,sega och får potensproblem och minskad sexlust.

Testosterone plays a critical role in male reproductive and metabolic functioning. Serum testosterone levels decrease with age, and low testosterone is associated with a variety of comorbidities, including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease. Men with type 2 diabetes have been shown to have significantly lower testosterone levels than men without diabetes. Several forms of testosterone replacement therapy (eg, oral, injectable, buccal, transdermal preparations) are available for use in the United States. The primary goals of testosterone therapy are to restore physiologic testosterone levels and reduce the symptoms of hypogonadism. Testosterone therapy may be a viable option in some men with diabetes and low testosterone; however, clinicians must be aware of contraindications to therapy (eg, prostate cancer and male breast cancer), implement appropriate monitoring procedures, and ensure that patient expectations are realistic regarding treatment outcome. Data suggest that testosterone therapy may have a positive effect on bones, muscles, erythropoiesis and anemia, libido, mood and cognition, penile erection, cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, insulin resistance, visceral adiposity, and quality of life. Sexual health may be a window into men's health; thus, more effective communication strategies are needed between clinicians and men with diabetes to ensure that sexual health topics are adequately addressed. Diabetes educators can play a key role in screening for low testosterone, providing relevant information to patients, and increasing clinician awareness of the need to address men's sexual health and implement appropriate strategies. Multidisciplinary care and individualized treatment are needed to optimize outcome.

Improved sexual desire, function and performance

The prevalence of erectile dysfunction increases markedly with age.78,79 Serum-free testosterone was significantly correlated with erectile and orgasmic function domains of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) questionnaire. Men with greater sexual activity had higher bio-T levels than men with a lower frequency and androgen deficiency may contribute to the age-related decline in male sexuality; correspondingly low levels of bio T were associated with low sexual activity.80,81 Compared with younger men, elderly men require higher levels of circulating testosterone for libido and erectile function.82,83 However, erectile dysfunction and/or diminished libido with or without a testosterone deficiency, might be related to other comorbidities or medications.84

Conclusion

Male hypogonadism and its treatment is a rapidly evolving area. While male hypogonadism has previously been underdiagnosed, the apparently increasing incidence and expanding range of treatment options may facilitate greater awareness of the condition. The symptoms in the elderly have a complex origin. It may be reasonably assumed that the age-associated decrease in T levels is in part responsible for the symptoms of aging. The benefits and risks of testosterone therapy must be clearly discussed with the patient and assessment of prostate and other risk factors considered before commencing testosterone treatment. There is some benefit from testosterone replacement therapy on muscle mass and strength, fat mass, BMD, sexual function, mood and general sense of well-being. Therefore, it seems logical to consider that in elderly men with subnormal T levels and clinical symptoms suggestive of androgen deficiency, hormone replacement therapy in combination with physical activity (resistance training) and adequate nutrition will result in an optimal increase in muscle strength, BMD, and general sense of well-being. However, data on clinical effects of androgen substitution, such as cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, falls and bone fracture rates are not yet available. Response to testosterone treatment should be assessed. If there is no improvement of symptoms and signs, treatment should be discontinued and the patient investigated for other possible causes of the clinical presentations. The major contraindication for androgen supplementation is the presence of a prostatic carcinoma.
