Benefits of hormone use
Hormone replacement has its benefits, among which include the following:
• Reduction in the likelihood of osteoporosis, Type 2 diabetes because it can reduce insulin resistance, obesity, depression, cardiovascular disease, and a high risk of death especially among middle-aged men.
• Normal levels of the hormone may also reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, which has been known to occur in individuals with low hormone levels.
• Through the years, the hormone has also been given as a cure for several conditions, among which include infertility, loss of libido, erectile dysfunction, penile enlargement, bone marrow stimulation, and appetite stimulation. The hormone has also been used in the treatment of anemia and is also given as replacement therapy in aging men who are undergoing the natural decline in the production of the hormone by their bodies. |
