Age, stress, sleep, weight, medications, and medical conditions can reduce testosterone. Learn how HOOT HRT finds the root cause.

Intro
Testosterone does decline slowly with age, but that’s only part of the story. Lifestyle, sleep, stress, medications, and medical conditions matter just as much—and many are fixable.

Medical Causes
• Testicular injury or surgery
• Pituitary disorders, autoimmune disease, genetics
• Cancer therapies (chemo, radiation)

Lifestyle And Health Drivers
• Higher body fat and insulin resistance
• Chronic stress and elevated cortisol
• Poor sleep or untreated sleep apnea
• Alcohol excess; opioids, corticosteroids, anabolic steroids
• Chronic illness (type 2 diabetes, liver or kidney disease)

How We Pinpoint Your “Why”
• Focused labs and detailed telehealth history
• Review of meds, supplements, and sleep
• Clear plan with steps you can control—plus TRT only if appropriate
