Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome

Testosterone is a hormone, which grows the most effective at the time of your puberty. This is the main substance, which helps you to grow your chest hair, then helps to deepen your voice, boosts the growth of your penis and helps to build up your muscle.

After a certain point of age, most of the men start experiencing a decline in testosterone. If you are not being sexually aroused then the lack of testosterone can be one reason. A large number of men erroneously believe that their lack of sex drive is accompanied by their old age.

Some possible causes for testosterone deficiency may include:

• Infection, injury or problems in the testicles.

• Chemotherapy or radiation to cure cancer.

• Genetic abnormalities.

• Dysfunction in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland.

• Inflammatory disease in the lungs or heart.

• Certain effects of medication.
