What this article completely fails to mention is the levels of testosterone these men had before starting treatment.
Just because levels decrease as we age, doesn't mean levels in a large group of men aren't lower than they should be, and if levels in the average population have been lowering over the course of the century as we've become more sedentary, should we be lowering the accepted normal, or stick to the a level more natural for our ancestors. In other words, should almost all of us be taking testosterone?
I'm not sure about changes to testosterone levels in women, but in some ways, I wonder if that has increased over the years, or my women friends are extremely active, and therefore I suspect may be higher than the norm.
