It is important to keep the levels up because testosterone is a sex hormone that plays important roles in the body. In men, it regulates sex drive (libido), bone mass, fat distribution, muscle mass and strength, and the production of red blood cells and sperm.

Dr. Yusuf Suggests...

Take a FACTOR V LEIDEN MUTATION PCR Test or Take a ERYTHROPOIETIN (EPO) Test
