MC had been HIV infected for almost ten years. While he had his share of nagging illnesses; sinus infections, thrush and the like, he always prided himself on feeling pretty good. Recently, after turning 40 years old, MC noticed he began to feel more fatigued than usual. It seemed he had little energy after dinner, wanting to sleep more and more each day. His problems were not just with energy levels either. In the bedroom he found that his desire to have sex just wasn’t there. When he was in the mood he found that if he could achieve an erection it was not has strong as it once was and maintaining it was becoming difficult. Life just wasn’t fun anymore. He felt sad at times, and finding joy in any activity was a rarity. So what's the problem? MC's doctor decided it was time for testosterone replacement. Here are the facts.

Diet and nutrition , lifestyle also plays a big role in raising testosterone back to natural and healthy ranges , along with the treatment.
