Testosterone Deficiency and Tiredness – Are They Connected?

You wake up tired, you go to sleep tired, and in between – you are tired!

Testosterone deficiency and tiredness are nothing to laugh at. Both can get in the way of your daily life. If you feel fatigued or tired all the time, testosterone deficiency may be to blame.

Could there be a connection between testosterone deficiency and tiredness that is hindering your daily performance and interfering with your relationships with everyone in your life?

The answer is a resounding YES!!!

Does low testosterone make you tired?

You might be surprised to hear that the fatigue you feel on a regular or constant basis could be a sign of low testosterone levels. This goes for males and females alike.

It is not just women who deal with hormonal changes in life. The late forties to mid-fifties is the time when most females see a significant decline in testosterone, progesterone, and estrogen levels. This is known as menopause. The ovaries stop production of these essential hormones, and the body goes through many changes.

For men, the situation is sometimes worse because male testosterone levels may start to decline as early as one’s late twenties. Decreasing at a rate of about one to two percent each year, someone on the higher end of the scale could have more than twenty percent less testosterone in his body at the age of forty than he did when he was thirty.

If you have low testosterone, feeling tired all the time may become a way of life. That is not how anyone should live.

How do you know if testosterone deficiency and fatigue are intertwined in your life?

The hormone replacement therapy specialists at Kingsberg Medical will run diagnostic blood tests to measure your testosterone and other vital hormone levels to determine if Low T or another hormonal imbalance is causing your fatigue.

Why Testosterone Deficiency Makes You Tired

Testosterone is one of the hormones that play a role in metabolism. If your body is not metabolizing the food that you consume properly, then instead of converting what you eat into energy, the body stores it away as fat. A good warning sign of Low T is weight gain and fatigue.

In fact, if you have low testosterone, chronic fatigue may be a fact of daily life.

Testosterone deficiency and tiredness go on to worsen one another because, as you gain weight, your belly fat produces an enzyme called aromatase. This enzyme seeks out free testosterone in the bloodstream and converts it into estradiol, a form of estrogen than increases weight gain.

More belly fat = more aromatase = more estradiol and less testosterone = less energy – and there you have it, a vicious cycle that never seems to end.

With less energy and fatigue plaguing your life, you likely give up physical activities, sports, and exercise, all things that help to boost testosterone production and increase energy.

How to Fight Fatigue with Testosterone

The first thing you need to do is get motivated – something that tends to disappear along with your energy levels. The motivation you need right now is that of taking action to help fight testosterone deficiency and fatigue by speaking with a hormone specialist.
