Emerge CareWhat are the symptoms of low testosterone?
The commonly described symptoms overlap heavily with other conditions, which is exactly why testing rather than self-assessment is the route.
The symptoms usually described include reduced sex drive, erectile difficulties, low energy, low mood, reduced muscle mass and disturbed sleep. Reading that list is where most people start, and it is also where the difficulty begins.
This is why the route is a blood test interpreted by a clinician rather than a symptom checklist. Testosterone follows a daily rhythm and results vary between laboratories, so a single number read against a range you found online tells you very little. If the list above sounds like you, that is a reason to book an appointment, not to reach a conclusion.
