    Testosterone at 68: Your New Chapter

    Best quote from Testosterone at 68: Your New Chapter

    “

    What they discovered is that much of what we attributed to 'normal aging' was actually related to obesity, medical conditions, and lifestyle factors; testosterone levels didn't really decline with age in men under 70 when they controlled for these factors.

    Input question

    Im a 68 year old man who’s started Testosterone Replacement Therapy. It seems I’ve had very low testosterone levels most of my life until now. I’m really wondering how having normal to high testosterone levels will affect my life and what are some good strategies to help with these hormonal changes at my age. I am married but my wife and I haven’t had sex in many years
