Mainly produced in the testes,\nit is key to a man\u2019s sexual and reproductive growth and development. From birth\nthrough puberty, it helps in the formation and appearance of various male sex\ncharacteristics and features, and during adulthood, it continues to take on big\nroles in several aspects of a man\u2019s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:28px\" class=\"has-background has-secondary-background-color\"><strong>What\nare the roles of testosterone in a man\u2019s body?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because testosterone is the main sex\nhormone in men, it is in-charge of many important functions that contribute to\na man\u2019s physical, sexual, and reproductive development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are the things that testosterone does\nto a man\u2019s body:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>Genitalia development<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone is essential in the\ndevelopment of a man\u2019s penis and testicles. If there is not enough testosterone\nin your body, your genitals will remain small and not grow or enlarge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>Body hair<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone promotes the growth of\nfacial hair, pubic hair, and other body hair. If your testosterone levels are\nlow, you will experience hair loss and even balding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>Voice change<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone is responsible for the\ndeepening of the voice that young males experience once they start the puberty\nstage. If you lack testosterone, your voice will not deepen, and you will\ncontinue to sound like your younger self even through adulthood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>Bone growth and development<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/What-Does-Testosterone-Do-For-Men-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"muscle and bone growth\" class=\"wp-image-1395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/What-Does-Testosterone-Do-For-Men-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/What-Does-Testosterone-Do-For-Men-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/What-Does-Testosterone-Do-For-Men-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/What-Does-Testosterone-Do-For-Men-1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone helps in the formation\nof strong and healthy bones. Without testosterone, your bones will easily lose\nmass and density, and suffer from fractures, wear and tear, and other injuries\nmore easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>Muscle growth and development<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone aids in strengthening\nthe different muscle groups in the body. If you have low testosterone, you will\nexperience muscle loss and weakness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In addition to these, testosterone contributes to a number of sexual and reproductive functions too, such as: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Production of sperm<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone is needed to\nproduce enough sperm in a man\u2019s body. It is also key to making sperm that have\ngood morphology or structure and motility. If you have low testosterone levels\nin your body, you are in danger of producing less than the ideal amount of\nsperm, and sperm that are deformed or not moving enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Libido<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone helps in\nkeeping sexual desire, sex drive, or libido up. If your testosterone is low,\nyou will lose your interest in sex, and end up having an inactive and\ndisappointing sex life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"banner vm-80\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-md-12 text-center\">\n            <figure><figure><img src=\"\/images\/banner_award.png\" class=\"img-responsive center-block banner_award\" alt=\"Money Back Guaranteed Male Enhancement Pills - Male UltraCore 2019 Award\"><\/figure><\/figure>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"col-md-6\"><figure><figure><img src=\"\/images\/21c-box.png\" class=\"img-responsive center-block\" alt=\"Not Sold At GNC Male UltraCore Box and Bottle\"><\/figure><\/figure><\/div>\n        <div>\n            <ul>\n                <li>100% Money Back<\/li>\n                <li>Free Rushed Shipping<\/li>\n                <li>Change Your Sex Life<\/li>\n            <\/ul>\n\n            <div class=\"text-center\">\n                <a href=\"\/order\" class=\"btn btn-order-now\">ORDER NOW<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n            <figure><figure><img src=\"\/images\/secure-logos2.png\" class=\"img-responsive center-block secure_logos\" alt=\"Not Sold At GNC Male UltraCore Secure Site Logos\"><\/figure><\/figure>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:28px\" class=\"has-background has-secondary-background-color\"><strong>How\ndo you know how much testosterone you have in your body?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to know how much testosterone\nthere is in your body is by taking a testosterone level test. To measure your\ntestosterone levels, a medical professional will take your blood sample for\nlaboratory analysis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone levels are measured in\nnanograms per deciliter (ng\/dL). Once you get your testosterone level test\nresults, you will know if you have normal, low, or high testosterone levels. To\nbe considered healthy, your testosterone levels should fall within the normal\nrange endorsed by health professionals. Below are the normal testosterone\nlevels per age group:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>25 years old and below:<\/strong> 376 ng\/dL to\n1,008 ng\/dL <\/li><li><strong>25 years old to 29 years old:<\/strong> 257 ng\/dL\nto 1,081 ng\/dL<\/li><li><strong>30 years old to 34 years old:<\/strong> 233 ng\/dL\nto 1,009 ng\/dL<\/li><li><strong>35 years old to 39 years old:<\/strong> 219 ng\/dL\nto 975 ng\/dL<\/li><li><strong>40 years old to 44 years old:<\/strong> 201 ng\/dL\nto 993 ng\/dL<\/li><li><strong>45 years old to 49 years old:<\/strong> 220 ng\/dL\nto 872 ng\/dL<\/li><li><strong>50 years old to 54 years old:<\/strong> 170 ng\/dL\nto 918 ng\/dL<\/li><li><strong>55 years old to 59 years old:<\/strong> 204 ng\/dL\nto 900 ng\/dL<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:28px\" class=\"has-background has-secondary-background-color\"><strong>Is\nhaving an abnormal testosterone level dangerous?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For healthy physical, sexual, and\nreproductive health, you should have testosterone levels that are normal. If,\nfor some reason, you get a low or high testosterone score on your testosterone\nlevel test, you will encounter various side effects that can bring mild to\nsevere harm to your overall health and wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>Low\ntestosterone side effects<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#a30003\" class=\"has-text-color\"><strong>Lower libido<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men with low testosterone\nwill suffer from low libido or sex drive.
