Diagnosed With “Normal Testosterone Levels?” What’s Normal, What’s Not and What’s Low T?

The amount of testosterone a person has in their body varies throughout their lifetime. Though testosterone is primarily known as a male hormone, females also need a certain amount to promote fertility (though most testosterone in females convert into estrogens).

What are normal testosterone levels?

Normal testosterone levels in men range between 300-1,200 ng/dL (nanograms per deciliter). Testosterone levels depend largely on age, genetics and existing medical conditions.

Adult males under 50 years of age with testosterone levels between 230-350 ng/dL and adult males over 50 years of age with testosterone levels between 300-500 ng/dL are typically diagnosed with Low T. 

Low Testosterone (Low T) is the underproduction or lack of production of testosterone. Common causes of Low T include chronic medical conditions like diabetes, infections, obesity or other hormonal conditions.

Side effects of Low T

While it’s natural for testosterone levels to decline with age, men with Low T experience a number of side effects, including:

• Reduced sex drive
• Reduced erectile function
• Loss of body hair
• Less beard growth
• Loss of lean muscle mass
• Fatigue or lack of motivation
• Excess weight
• Mood swings
