Testosterone Boosts Libido And Mood In Men, University of Pennsylvania Study

When men over 65 are given pharmaceutical testosterone to get their level of the hormone back to that of much younger men, it boosts their libido and sexual activity, as well as their mood. That’s the conclusion of a major testosterone study published today in the New England Journal of Medicine. The paper is likely to generate significant interest because it is the first time a comprehensive, scientifically sound clinical trial has shown those benefits from testosterone, a drug that has been embroiled in controversy and is the target of a class-action lawsuit brought by thousands of men who believe they suffered cardiovascular side effects from using it to treat their “Low T.”
