Testosterone Attacked By The Media

The media has misrepresented findings about the risks and benefits of testosterone therapy. In a recent report, Life Extension reviewed and critiqued the new Testosterone and Aging book, and the media’s inaccurate portrayal of what the book says.

We have found that a major flaw with these kinds of government-sponsored publications is that they are written by “committees of experts” that appear to lack a comprehensive understanding and the clinical experience of using testosterone to treat age-related disorders.

These committees fail to realize the critical importance of individualizing a testosterone replacement program. Life Extension’s testosterone protocol, for example, mandates blood testing to ascertain how much testosterone, aromatase inhibitors, and/or 5 –alpha reductase blockers are needed.

In reviewing safety data, the Institute of Medicine’s committees bring up every side effect that could possibly occur, but overlooks the blood-testing protocols used by most anti-aging physicians to guard against these problems. Left out is evidence that testosterone therapy also protects against osteoporosis, anemia, and heart disease.

Testosterone is a substance that has been intimately tied throughout the ages to a man’s virility and sexuality. While the testicles are the organs in a man’s body that secrete testosterone, production of this vital male hormone actually begins with a cascade of biological events that occur in the brain. Testosterone synthesis begins when the brain’s pituitary gland secretes lutenizing hormones, which then prompts the testicles to produce testosterone via the Leydig cells. It has been estimated that a man begins life with 700 million Leydig cells and begins to lose 6 million of those cells each year after his twentieth birthday.

Andropause & Manopause

Andropause (also called "manopause") - is the life cycle process caused by a decrease in bioavailable testosterone and rising estrogen. While multiple studies have proven that testosterone supplementation can ease or even reverse many symptoms of andropause, some men still may be leery of using testosterone until it is given mainstream medicine's "stamp of approval."

For those men and others who wish to optimize their testosterone levels as they age, this issue of Sound Body offers specific recommendations to help maintain optimal testosterone levels, combat the debilitating effects of andropause, and live life to the fullest whether you re 40 or 90 years of age.

A report in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism (November 2003) sheds more light on the beneficial effects of testosterone supplementation in andropausal men. The study authors conducted a rigorous database search of testosterone's effect on heart disease in men, and identified multiple studies showing that men with low testosterone levels had higher blood pressure, LDL cholesterol levels, triglyceride levels, and body mass index compared to men with optimal testosterone levels.
