Testosterone is a male hormone produced primarily by the testicles. Female ovaries also make testosterone, though in much smaller amounts. As men age, testosterone levels begin to decline, and experts believe that 1 in 4 adult male suffer from low testosterone. By age 50, most people are producing about half of the amount they produced in their twenties.

Andropause (male menopause) is the gradual decline in testosterone levels in aging men.

Hypogonadism is a medical condition characterized by inadequate production of sex hormones like testosterone.
