HOW TO BOOST YOUR TESTOSTERONE

If you experiencing a low testosterone whether you are enhanced or natural it is a problem, and it has to be fixed as soon as possible because low testosterone will affect two main key things in your body:

1. Muscle gains
2. Sex drive

And we can’t handle to lose muscle nor drive so let us first know what is the cause for low testosterone?

1. Lack of sleep / not reaching deep sleep
2. stress
3. Eating non-healthy food
4. Reducing your essential fats to zero
5. Swapping day by night
6. Medical disorders (interrupted blood supply to testicles)
7. Head injury
8. Metabolic disorders (e.g., very high blood iron levels)
9. Alcohol abuse
10. Chemotherapy (cancer)
11. Usage of high testosterone for long period of time (ENHANCED BODYBUILDERS) *
12. Wrong PCT weather high or low doses or wrong timing (ENHANCED BODYBUILDERS)
13. High level of prolactin (ENHANCED BODYBUILDERS)
14. Estrogen build up (ENHANCED BODYBUILDERS)

*some certain steroids cause very bad effect if used for longer period as (trenbolone acetate, testosterone suspension)

Always consult your trainer or doctor when preparing for a steroid cycle in order to counter the side effects

How you know you have low testosterone?

We recommend if you have a doubt that you have low testosterone that you consult your doctor and he will probably tell you to do your blood test and the most common lab tests are as following:

1. Blood Testosterone level:

Men: be 280 to 1,100 ng/dL Women: 15 to 70 ng/dL

1. LH (Luteinizing hormone):

Men: normal range is 1.24–7.8 IU/L Women: in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle: 1.9 to 12.5 IU/L. women at the peak of the menstrual cycle: 8.7 to 76.3 IU/L. women in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle: 0.5 to 16.9 IU/L. pregnant women: less than 1.5 IU/L

1. Prolactin:

Men: less than 20 ng/mL (425 µg/L) Nonpregnant women: less than 25 ng/mL (25 µg/L) Pregnant women: 80 to 400 ng/mL (80 to 400 µg/L)

1. Hemoglobin

Men: less than 20 ng/mL (425 µg/L) Nonpregnant women: less than 25 ng/mL (25 µg/L) Pregnant women: 80 to 400 ng/mL (80 to 400 µg/L)

1. Lipid panel

Test Optimal or Desirable

LDL Cholesterol Less than 100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L); with CVD or diabetes: less than 70 mg/dL (1.81 mmol/L)

Total Cholesterol Less than 200 mg/dL (5.18 mmol/L)

Fasting Triglycerides Less than 150 mg/dL (1.70 mmol/L)

Non-HDL Cholesterol Less than 130 mg/dL (3.37 mmol/L)

P.S. results has to be consulted with your doctor to give you the next step

Two cases that needs immediate attention:

1. a physiological problem causing the low testosterone then you must consult your doctor as you may need a testosterone replacement therapy
2. Very long steroid cycle or not proper estrogen blockers during cycle may need also to consult your doctor in order to reverse the side effects
