for women,i totally agree,lou, but for men
low testosterone is a high risk factor for vascular disease in men, and a whole list of quality of life issues:
heat tolerance,basic physical stamina,osteoporosis,muscle retention,mental attitude, and on and on.
bioidentical testosterone cream is available and should be used by men who need it to keep their level in the UPPER 1/3 of the normal range.
estrogen is also produced by belly and leg fat in men, and is a high risk factor for prostate cancer.
testosterone does not raise prostate cancer risk,that is a myth put out by old poorly run studies.......it does, however speed up prostate cancer if you get the cancer.
all the latest prove testosterone does not give you prostate cancer.
