Contact UsDHEA — Testosterone and Estrogen Levels Should Be Considered First
DHEA, a testosterone and estrogen precursor hormone (don’t worry, I’ll explain that bit in a minute), is the most common hormone in your body. This is true no matter your sex. So, what does that mean? Why does it matter? And how does it relate to any hormone imbalances you might be experiencing? Let’s discuss. […]
Low Estrogen — Weight Gain After Menopause
Low estrogen and weight gain are definitely associated with each other (for women, anyway). (By the way, if you want to learn more about the symptoms of low estrogen in men, read our article here.) For most women who have normal estrogen levels throughout life, this doesn’t really become an area of concern until menopause […]
Hair Loss Myths — 3 Stupid Male Hair Loss Myths You Should Completely Ignore
Though I’ve written about hair loss myths for men before, especially myths surrounding testosterone replacement therapy, I want to approach it from a different angle and discuss a variety of hair loss myths, not just those related to testosterone. However, since the myth about hair loss and testosterone is so persistent, I’m going to discuss […]
Fertility Shots for Men and Women — Just the Basics
Fertility shots or injections, for both men and women, can be a subject fraught with misinformation, fear, and anxiety. There’s a lot on the line when you’re attempting fertility treatments — it’s not simply the money (although that is definitely a concern, as these fertility shots can often be prohibitively expensive), but it’s how much is […]
Hormone Problems — How to Talk to Your Significant Other About Getting Help
Hormone problems can be bad enough when you’re the one suffering from them—but when you’re watching a family member suffer, when you suspect that their hormones might be the culprit behind their strange, hurtful, or concerning behavior, it can be emotionally and mentally draining. It can even destroy relationships. You see, when someone is suffering […]

Testosterone and Diet — How to Regulate Your Testosterone Levels With the Food You Do (and Don’t) Eat
Though testosterone and diet are connected, and though you can, to an extent, regulate your hormone levels through dietary choices, I want to make something really clear: If you suffer from clinically diagnosed low testosterone, a form of hypogonadism, it is unlikely that dietary choices are going to return your hormone levels to normal. It […]
Andropause Symptoms — Andropause Is not Low Testosterone, and It’s not the Same as Menopause
Before we talk about andropause symptoms, I want to address a deeper issue. Andropause is a very popular, and misunderstood, term being used these days. Andropause symptoms are supposedly very similar to (if not identical to) low testosterone. I just want to say right here that andropause (also known as “manopause”) and low testosterone are […]

Am I Fertile? — Infertility Symptoms for Men
“Am I fertile?” This can be one of the scariest phrases in the English language if you’re the one who’s saying it.
