Testosterone is being used by scores of older men to help them feel young...
...in creams, in gels and in patches but the jury is out on the benefits or risks of using this male hormone as concluded by the Mayo Clinic who has conducted research analyses of testosterone treatment.
"The studies they reviewed examined the risks from such treatment for heart disease disease and stroke and the benefits for boosting sexual function."
More than 2.4 million prescriptions were filled last year for Testosterone as an anti-aging treatment.
There are benefits for men with very low testosterone levels. Of course it can increase Sexual drive and function, and increase energy in well being. It can increase muscle growth and protect against heart disease.
The bad news it is unknown whether it really protects or leads to heart disease and it can definitely lead to Prostrate Cancer and Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy.
The fact is just not enough is known at this point about the benefits or risks of Testosterone treatment.
I say if its a good thing use it, If not don't.
