Introduction
Hormonal regulation is fundamental to andrology health, with testosterone playing a central role in male physiology. Testosterone influences sexual desire, erectile function, muscle mass, bone density, metabolic efficiency, and emotional stability.
Disruption of hormonal balance can lead to widespread physical and psychological consequences.
Causes and Effects of Hormonal Imbalance
Testosterone deficiency may result from aging, primary testicular failure, pituitary dysfunction, chronic illness, medication use, or lifestyle-related factors. Symptoms commonly include reduced libido, erotic sense, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, decreased muscle strength, increased fat mass, mood changes, and reduced cognitive performance.
Without diagnosis and treatment, hormonal imbalance may contribute to cardiovascular risk, osteoporosis, and metabolic disease.
Supporting Hormonal Health
Maintaining hormonal balance requires healthy nutrition, regular physical activity, adequate sleep, stress management, and medical evaluation when symptoms persist. Hormonal therapy should be administered only under professional supervision.
Conclusion
Hormonal balance is a pillar of andrology health. Proper evaluation and management restore vitality, protect long-term health, and improve overall quality of life.
