Telehealth Support for Hypoandrogenism (Low T)

Understanding Hypoandrogenism (Low Testosterone in Women)

Hypoandrogenism refers to abnormally low levels of androgens – primarily testosterone – in both men and women. While androgens are most often linked to male sexual development, they also play an essential role in the female body.

At TBTotal.Health, we specialize in diagnosing and treating hypoandrogenism through a modern, telemedicine-based approach. Our goal is to restore hormonal balance with personalized therapy that supports your full-body wellness.

Causes & Risk Factors

1. Aging and Menopause: Testosterone naturally declines with age, often accelerating during perimenopause and postmenopause as ovarian function decreases.
2. Oophorectomy (Surgical Ovary Removal): Surgical menopause significantly reduces androgen production, leading to rapid hormonal decline.
3. Adrenal Dysfunction: Since a portion of female testosterone is produced by the adrenal glands, any adrenal insufficiency (like Addison’s disease or chronic stress) can reduce androgen levels.
4. Hormonal Contraceptives: Long-term use of birth control pills can suppress natural testosterone production in some women.
5. Chronic Illness or Inflammation: Conditions like obesity, type 2 diabetes, thyroid disorders, and autoimmune diseases can disrupt normal hormone synthesis and balance.
6. Pituitary or Hypothalamic Disorders: Tumors or dysfunction in the brain’s hormone-regulating centers can interfere with signals that trigger androgen production.
7. Certain Medications: Glucocorticoids, antidepressants, and some cancer treatments (e.g., chemotherapy) can suppress androgen output.
8. Extreme Stress or Overtraining: High cortisol levels or excessive physical stress can lead to hormonal dysregulation, including lowered testosterone.
