If you get sick form a shot, you could jeopardize your current health insurance plan for using illegal drugs – or even risk losing your job. Your family, friends, and peers might look upon you as a cheater, for doing nothing more than raising your own body’s level of a chemical ...

Androgel is a low-dose testosterone product prescribed mainly for men in their 50s or greater who are suffering from low testosterone levels. The dosages delivered by this product are low, so it isn’t all that high on the totem pole for bodybuilders. However, the drug does have some useful applications for the elderly, the average, and the bodybuilders among us. Let’s learn more about the uses and users of Androgel. In terms of ‘street value’, Androgel is a fairly inexpensive product. In older men, it helps improve lifestyles and health. In younger men, a simple libido boost is the most you can hope for with daily use of a single application. If you are an older gentleman needing a little bit of help to reduce sagging testosterone levels, then Androgel may be a good option ...

As males get older, the testosterone production in their bodies is greatly reduced. The majority of males don’t use steroids, and anywhere between the ages of 30 and 50 they all experience their levels of testosterone going down. But for people who have taken steroids, this natural loss of testosterone is much worse. The endocrine system in their body was far over worked while they were taking steroids at a younger age; this was due to the different amounts of steroids raising levels of both testosterone and estrogen. This might cause their pituitary gland to signal the testes to stop producing testosterone way before that of a person who has never taken steroids. Technology has been recently developed that can let aging men have the levels of testosterone that they did when they were much younger. Many men take part in testosterone ...

As men, we create the testosterone we need to live and reproduce. Our pituitary gland in the brain senses the levels of testosterone in the bloodstream, and sends “marching orders” to the testes to start, or halt, production. As one ages, the body produces less and less testosterone. Or, if you use anabolic steroids or synthetic testosterone for muscle gain, and you stop taking it, your body very often chooses not to produce its own testosterone anymore. The pituitary, after all, senses the presence of (artificial) testosterone in the bloodstream and tells the testes to halt production. The longer the pituitary gland tells the testes not to produce testosterone, the longer it takes for normal testosterone production to resume. In some males, due to extended use or just plain aging, natural testosterone production never returns. In ...

As men age, their bodies produce less testosterone. Most men never use steroids, and all of them suffer from reduced testosterone levels as they age into their 30s, 40s, and 50s. For the steroid user, the reduction in natural body-produced testosterone can be even more drastic. Their endocrine system likely took a beating during their 20s and 30s due to varied levels of steroid use resulting in elevated testosterone and estrogen levels. As a result, their pituitary gland may signal the testes to halt testosterone production years before that of a natural bodybuilder. Luckily, technology exists which can allow middle-aged men to enjoy levels of testosterone on par with those of an 18-year old. Testosterone supplementation, or hormone replacement therapy, has become wildly popular in recent years, as men seek to maintain fairly strong testosterone levels ...
