Testosterone Deficiency- What Worked for Me


by: KD on Mon, Apr 23 2007

In response to Barb’s dilemma with her husband, I myself suffer from testosterone deficiency and can relate to her husband’s actions. I lost all interest in sex. I had no desire what so ever. I became a total couch potato and slept a lot. I didn’t want anything to do with anyone and just wanted to be left alone and do my own thing. It became so bad that it affected my relationship with my wife and started to affect my job. I became depressed and was not happy.

I finally went to the doctor and told him that something was wrong with me but I couldn’t describe it. After my doctor did some blood tests, my testosterone levels came back low. He prescribed a testosterone gel and in hardly any time at all I got my energy back, my libido came back, and finally my life back. I also quit smoking, which the doctor had told me also affects testosterone production. I would highly suggest that Barb’s husband see a doctor and get tested. It was the best thing I have ever did.

    was born with skin pigmentism of a redhead, which means very sensitive skin. circumcised at birth brought on a build up of calus sort of protection at the scar area. through the years this produced lessening of sensation in the pubic area, from teen years to age about 35. at this point in my life all sensation in that area stopped.

  • My Husband - Testosterone Deficiency? - by Barb - (Sun, Apr 08 2007)
    My story is my husband is not interested in me. Weather it be sexually or not. He would rather spend time up in the bedroom smoking and watching tv and not be with the family. I am very lonely and he says that he is not happy. We have went to counseling and that does not seem to work. My mother’s friend suggested that it might be testosterone deficiency. [more..]
