What is testosterone?

Testosterone is a steroid hormone with two major functions in the human body:

1. Testosterone is needed to form and maintain the male sex organs and promote secondary male sex characteristics such as voice deepening and hair growth patterns. This function is related to its androgenic properties.
2. Testosterone is the facilitation of muscle growth as well as bone maintenance. This is a result of its anabolic properties.

Where is testosterone produced?

Testosterone is mainly produced in the testes. Testosterone is carried in the blood to a number of organs throughout the body including the skin, hair and muscle. Small amounts of testosterone are also made by the adrenal glands, which are walnut sized glands that sit on top of the kidneys.

Why do men need testosterone?

Testosterone plays a key role in reproductive and sexual function. Testosterone is responsible for producing physical characteristics of male puberty. Testosterone also stimulates cells in the testes to produce sperm.

Testosterone is also very important for continuing good health in many non-reproductive tissues. It is important for:

• the maintenance of bones and muscles;
• mood and sex drive (libido).
• In summary, testosterone is needed for the best possible health in men.

Testosterone and ageing

Testosterone levels decline steadily after age 30. The decline is relatively small, at an average rate of about 1% to 2% percent per year. By middle age and older, virtually all men experience some decline in testosterone.

Although it’s normal for testosterone levels to drop as men age, testosterone is the stuff that makes men men. Throughout a man’s life, testosterone maintains his male characteristics and sex drive.
