- Sexual Function: Testosterone is crucial for libido, erectile function, and overall sexual health.
- Muscle Mass and Strength: Adequate testosterone levels support the development and maintenance of muscle mass and strength.
- Bone Density: Testosterone contributes to bone health, and low levels can lead to decreased bone density.

Understanding the multifaceted impact of low testosterone is the first step towards effective intervention.
