What isTestosterone?

Testosterone is a hormone produced in the testicles. Testosterone helps maintain men’s:

Testosterone levels generally peak during adolescense and early adulthood. As men age, their testosterone level gradually decresses (typically arouns 1% per eyar after age 30-40). For older men, it’s important to determine if a low testosterone level is due to normal aging or if its due to hypogonadism.

Hypogonadism decreases men’s ability to produce normal amounts of testosterone due toa problem with the testicals. Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) in the form of injections, pellets, patches or gels, can improve the symptoms of low testosterone in men.

What isEstrogen?

Estrogen plays a key role in maintaining reproductive health and is also involved in many other bodily functions, including bone growth, cardiovascular health, and brain function. It is also used in hormone replacement therapy to help alleviate symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood changes. Here are some potential benefits of estrogen replacement therapy, or ERT:
Relieve menopausal symptoms: ERT can help alleviate symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood changes.
Improve bone density: Estrogen helps maintain bone density, and ERT can help prevent osteoporosis and reduce the risk of fractures.
Reduce the risk of heart disease: Estrogen has been shown to have a protective effect on the cardiovascular system, and ERT may help reduce the risk of heart disease in women who have gone through menopause.
Improve cognitive function: Estrogen is involved in brain function and may help improve memory and cognitive function, especially in women who start ERT early.
