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.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi I am 33 years old and still not married. I have erectile dysfunction and I am taking tablets for it. If I stop taking them for one or two months my erection reduces again. My report shows blood reversal in the penis in three areas. What is the permanent solution for this? Will I be fully curable and have good sex? I am planning to get married in September.
