"Man, I need a testosterone booster. I make too little progress, my muscles are lacking behind" - that's one of those thoughts that some guys into bodybuilding have from time to time. Or, even worse, they may think about illegal ways to get their supposedly low testosterone level up.

In this video we are going to talk about what testosterone level is normal in males, how you can tell if you have too little or too much, if you need supplements to raise it and what you can really do about it.

  • Evil - could you give citations for liver disease and prostate cancer being caused by increased testosterone levels? As I understood it liver disease is caused by 17AA oral steroids only due to their structural alteration, and while high test and DHT can cause benign prostate hypertrophy there's no evidence that I'm aware of that they cause prostate cancer, but that they can accelerate it, as any androgen can in cancers in androgen target tissues?

  • @Ignitionnet Heah Ignition, sorry for the belated reply! Around 5% of a man's testosterone gets converted to DHT and increased levels apparently can drive the growth of prostate cells. Can I say it is certain link? No. But it's possible.

    One paper that might be some interesting reading on the subject is: McCulloch D et al. The expression of the ADAMs proteases in prostate cancer cell lines and their regulation by dihydrotestosterone. Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, Volume 167, Issues 1-2.

  • @Evilcyber Ah yes you missed a really big side effect - gynecomastia! The idea of growing female breasts should put most people off self-medicating :)

  • @Ignitionnet LMAO! :D

  • Thanks alot mate. That was a much needed video for many ppl. i hear everyday about Testosterone and things to boost it . And can't make my mind up that do i need it or not. You explained it in very simple straightfarword way.

  • @ameenuk2000 Thanks for the friendly words! I believe that if you can't break something complicated down into simple steps, then you are a bad educator.

  • @Evilcyber Hey thanks. All true but as noted previously purely BPH, no link to growth of new cancer only existing ones from what I can see in that study.

    DHT's actions on androgen-target tissues is well documented, the prostate is one of those :)

  • I had low testosterone which is now resolved and it's a revelation. It should be noted that 300 - 1000 isn't hard and fast, when younger you've ever right to expect to be higher, if you're at 300 when you're in your mid-20s you are, no question, going to have problems when you get older as mother nature takes it away from you.

    Never be embarrassed to speak to the doctor, it's been a revelation for me and Mrs Igni is rather happy too :)

  • @bilalk85 - you need to start squatting dude.

  • @RippedSupreme how about heavy smokers? those can have a deep voice while experiencing low T, and besides I'm also having low testosterone levels due to a crappy lifestyle which involves sitting on my arse 24/7 until my rear end merges with the seat... even dough I've always had a deep voice, even before I started smoking. Ps.@Evilcyber, aggression also occurs on the other end of the scale, I snapped from almost anything when my free T was way under the minimum range
