10 Signs of Low Testosterone [CHECKLIST]

In this article, we will discuss some tell-tale signs of low testosterone and provide a helpful checklist. If you can't check off a single symptom, then you may have normal to high testosterone levels. If you find yourself exhibiting any of the symptoms below, we recommend first attempting to correct the micronutrient deficiencies most commonly shown in men with low testosterone through supplementing with Testro-X:

Symptom #1: Low Sex Drive

Do you no longer fantasize or anticipate a private and intimate bedroom moment with your significant other? For singles, do you find yourself masturbating less often? A low sex drive is one of the strongest signs of low T. After all, testosterone is responsible for semen production. You may notice fewer erections, and the urge for sex may be near non-existent.

Symptom #2: Genital Numbness

Touch your penis or scrotum or have your intimate other do it. You should feel what can be best described as a tingly or “electric” sensation. This is the feeling that makes sex and masturbation so pleasurable. If you feel nothing, then your testes are likely not producing enough testosterone. Aside from numbness, there may also be a physical change in shape and shrinkage in your testicles.

Symptom #3: Weight Gain

Gaining weight can negatively affect testosterone gains. How? Excess fat cells convert testosterone to estrogen. The end result is less circulating testosterone. We must point out, though, that scientists at this point still aren’t clear whether weight gain causes low testosterone or if the inverse is true. Either way, packing on the pounds does your body no favors.

Symptom #4: Insomnia

Like weight gain, this is another chicken or the egg situation. Does low testosterone cause poor sleep or the other way around? Once again, researchers aren’t entirely sure. In any case, studies do reveal a correlation. Also, when it comes to sleep, it isn’t just sleeping fewer hours that affects T production. Other factors, such as constantly changing your sleep hours may also disrupt your circadian rhythm, and consequently, your testosterone output.

Symptom #5: Fatigue

One of the other signs of low T is chronic fatigue. Many people have experienced the mid-afternoon slump, which usually kicks in after lunch. You may experience this on a day-to-day basis, believing it’s normal. Well, it isn’t. While fatigue can be due to a number of factors, such as lack of exercise or depression, it can also be an indicator of abnormally low testosterone.

Symptom #6: Less Muscle Mass

Your muscles won’t completely deflate to the size of raisins. However, if you regularly work out, you may notice a loss in strength. You may also notice a slight loss in muscle mass, especially around the upper arms and legs. Testosterone, after all, stimulates lean muscle growth by increasing insulin-like growth factor (IGF). For the gym rat, this is often a sign that you need to supplement your diet with a male testosterone booster.

Symptom #7: Mood Swings

High testosterone has been linked to aggression. While that may be true to an extent, the opposite may also have validity. Low testosterone may cause wild mood swings and irritability. Have you recently snapped or lashed out at a loved one or colleague? Being moody or being easily flustered are potential signs of low T. While we all have our low moments, constantly feeling irritable is not normal and may be a symptom of hormonal imbalance.

Symptom #8: Low Bone Density

Osteopenia is the medical term for low bone density. New medical evidence has linked low testosterone to osteopenia. A study published in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism showed that increasing testosterone levels did have a positive impact on bone density. Furthermore, Low T levels may also be linked to osteoporosis in older men, according to recent studies.


Low bone mass may manifest in the form of muscle cramps, brittle nails, loss in grip strength and receding gum lines.


Symptom #9: Hair Loss

Sure, baldness can be sexy, though we bet you would rather not notice the first signs of a receding hairline. Of course, hair loss is in large part a hereditary factor. However, likelihood also increases as testosterone decreases. Aside from the hair on your head, you may also notice sparse hair growth over the rest of your body. This holds true even if you aren’t genetically predisposed. As long as you keep your testosterone count up, the less likely you’ll have to shop around for a Rogaine product.


Symptom #10: Anemia

Anemia is a condition in which your body lacks enough red blood cells to shuttle oxygen to your muscle tissue. The result is chronic fatigue, which we already discussed. How does this relate to testosterone? Androgens have what is known as an erythropoietic effect that induces hemoglobin production. In addition, studies also show that testosterone alters iron metabolism, which in turn stimulates red blood cell production.
