The Connection Between Low-T and Infertility
Why Does Testosterone Deficiency Cause Infertility?
One of the most sure-fire signs of Testosterone Deficiency is lack of libido. Everyone knows that sex drive is tightly connected to Low-T. Even though there are many other symptoms of Testosterone Deficiency, this is the single symptom that most people understand and recognize. Most people also know that Low-T is one of many causes of Erectile Dysfunction, although there are a few other common causes as well.
Who Should Use Testosterone HRT?
For men that are experiencing trouble in the bedroom, whether that be the result of a lack of sex drive, lack of functional ability, or both, Testosterone Hormone Treatments are a fantastic tool for restoring normal sexual function in a large segment of aging males.
However, there is one potential problem involved regarding Testosterone HRT, and every man should be made aware of it, no matter the age. Testosterone Replacement can put energy back into your love life, but it can also reduce your fertility while using it.
Infertility and Testosterone Replacement
According to urological specialists, Testosterone HRT significantly impacts a man's ability to bear children effectively. Some studies have explored the potential of Testosterone Replacement Therapy as a form of birth control.
Research has shown that long-term Testosterone Supplementation can cause men to lose one hundred percent of their sperm production while using the treatment. Long Term Low-T Treatment has this effect in nine out of ten men.
Although Testosterone is fantastic for your bedroom experience, it may prevent you from experiencing the fruits of your labor. Many (or even most) men will be pleased with this. By the time most people need Testosterone Replacement Therapy, there is a high likelihood that they have already had all of the children that they plan to have.
Even if circumstances change, suspending Testosterone Treatments can restore Sperm Production (although Erectile Dysfunction issues will return).
How does Natural Testosterone Contribute to Fertility?
Testosterone is one of the most vital components of sperm production. The connection between sperm genesis and Testosterone can be described as a positive-feedback loop. Let us further explain precisely how this works:
Before testosterone or Sperm can be created, the testes must receive signals from the brain to authorize production. The hormones that trigger the production of Sperm and Testosterone are known as Gonadotropin-releasing Hormones also referred to as GnRH. The term Gonadotropin signifies that the hormones are responsible for the production of sex hormones by the Testes and Ovaries.
The two primary hormones related to healthy sexual function in both sexes are Luteinizing Hormone and Follicle Stimulating Hormone. For sperm to propagate, both hormones must be available in constructive amounts.
In a healthy man with normal Testosterone Levels, this system is in perfect equilibrium and will work without a hitch. As Testosterone Levels in the blood drop, the brain gets signals to increase the production of both hormones to compensate.
Why does Testosterone Hormone Replacement Therapy Reduce Fertility?
Testosterone Replacement Therapy is a simple concept. To restore proper function and health, a physician will prescribe a Testosterone Treatment that restores Hormone Balance by introducing an outside source of Testosterone. Unlike Human Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy, which can only be delivered via injection, there are numerous effective ways to deliver Testosterone to the human body effectively.
Testosterone Hormone Replacement Therapy can be administered in the following ways:
Testosterone Gels
Testosterone Injections
Testosterone Patches
Testosterone Sprays
Testosterone Dermal Implants
These methods can effectively restore Testosterone Levels, restoring function over time. The problem is that when you introduce outside sources of Testosterone, you confuse your body just a little bit, which causes the positive feedback loop to turn negative.
Your body senses the increase in the concentration of Testosterone and signals to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to limit or suspend Testosterone Production. Because of this lack of natural Testosterone Secretion, your brain does not send signals to the testes to produce sperm either.
Over time, Testosterone Replacement Therapy will continually diminish your sperm production. As sperm production drops, this slowly reduces your ability to conceive until sperm production either completely shuts down or drops to a point where fertilization becomes incredibly difficult.
If you are planning to conceive a child shortly, it is recommended that you turn to another source of Erectile Dysfunction Treatment, such as Cialis or Viagra. Other treatments can increase sex drive and sexual function while not limiting your fertility.
Why Choose Testosterone Replacement Therapy?
Although Testosterone HRT limits fertility, by most other measures, it is far more beneficial to your body and overall health than other forms of ED Treatment if you suffer from Low-T. Numerous symptoms of Testosterone Deficiency are not treated when using other forms of Erectile Dysfunction Treatment.
For example, Viagra increases Erectile Function by restoring blood flow to the penis and releasing nitric oxide, which promotes the vasodilation vital for an erection to form. Viagra was initially conceived in 1991 as a treatment to promote healthy blood pressure. Over the next few years, researchers noticed that the drug had the side effect of promoting the formation of erections, leading to its eventual approval as an Erectile Dysfunction medication.
This doesn't treat the root cause of Testosterone Deficiency. However, it only treats a limited pool of symptoms associated with the disorder. Choosing Testosterone Replacement Therapy means that you can resolve a number of other symptoms associated with Low-T, including:
Loss of Muscle Mass
Decrease in Body Fat Metabolism
Loss of Bone Mass
Fatigue and Energy Depletion
Depression
Unless your ultimate goal with therapy is to conceive a child, the benefits from Testosterone Replacement Therapy often far outweigh the loss of fertility and other risks.
Does this Negative Feedback Mechanism lead to other health issues?
It does not. Testosterone delivered to the body from an exogenous source provides all the other necessary benefits of Testosterone Naturally Produced by the human body. The bio-feedback system involved with natural Testosterone release only affects the production of natural Testosterone and the production of sperm by the testes. Because of this, Testosterone Hormone Replacement Therapy has no adverse effect on processes vital to male health.
To properly stimulate fertility, it is vital to ensure that Natural Testosterone Production and Luteinizing Hormone production remain sufficiently elevated to encourage the healthy production of sperm. Testosterone Replacement Therapy alone is not capable of achieving that goal.
How to Increase Fertility in Men Experiencing Testosterone Deficiency
If you are a man with Low-T, one of the most effective ways to increase Sperm Production is Gonadotropin Injections. Gonadotropin Injections contain Follicle Stimulating Hormone and Luteinizing Hormone. They achieve Sperm Production by bypassing the feedback mechanism associated with Testosterone Replacement that discourages the release of Gonadotropins.
What is the Basic Protocol for Diagnosing Infertility
Generally, when a man comes into a clinic to learn about his fertility status, the first step is for the man to provide a sample to establish his sperm count. If he produces an abnormally low amount of sperm, the next step is to perform blood testing to establish his T-Levels.
If the patient produces an abnormally low level of Testosterone but still retains sexual function, the next step is simply to administer Gonadotropin Injections to promote enhanced fertility.
Although it may be OK to go to a general practitioner to establish Testosterone Levels and Sperm Count, the next step should be to talk to a reproductive specialist. Reproductive Endocrinologists are explicitly trained to diagnose and treat Hormone Issues that lead to fertility problems.
Natural Ways to Increase Fertility
Although Gonadotropin Injections have a positive effect on fertility, there are other ways that you can naturally choose to enhance your fertility. If you want to try your hand at natural procreation, you can try these steps before you visit a doctor, but these steps can also further enhance fertility in combination with medical treatment.
Anything you can do to influence your natural production of Testosterone positively will benefit your fertility. We recommend the following three steps to increase fertility.
Eat Better- Body Fat Percentage has a significant effect on Testosterone Production. Adipose fat, which pools around the stomach, hips, and midsection, hurts Testosterone Levels. This form of fat can absorb Testosterone and convert it into Estrogen. By losing weight, you can eliminate the negative influence of Estrogen and promote healthier Testosterone Utilization.
Exercise More Often Another way to increase Testosterone Production is to engage in healthier exercise habits. Physical activity helps promote Testosterone Production in two crucial ways. First, it increases metabolism, burning off excess fat.
Second, Testosterone Secretion increases as a direct result of intense physical activity. The combination of these two benefits can enhance fertility significantly for some men.
Get a Full Night's Rest Testosterone is also released significantly during sleep. If you don't get the proper amount of sleep that you need, or you have environmental or medical issues which prevent you from sleeping soundly through the night, your Testosterone Production will likely suffer. Enforcing good sleeping habits promotes a healthier and more natural release of Testosterone throughout the day.
