Testosterone is chief among the androgens family of hormones and by far the best known of the entire family. The androgens are responsible with the development of masculine characteristics in all vertebrates by binding to androgen receptors. They are in charge of the activity of male sex organs and the emergence and development of secondary sex characteristics, such as the deep voice, the body and facial hair, the broad shoulders and chest, the heavier bone structure, the greater muscle mass and the coarse skin. Testosterone is primarily secreted in the testes and secondarily by the adrenal glands.
The functions of this hormone are so closely linked to the well-being of men, that a dip in the level of testosterone produced by the body is enough to bring about massive changes in an individual. The effect of testosterone deficiency can be readily observed in older males because the levels of hormone in the body decline gradually with age. While low testosterone levels is a temporary phenomenon that can be reversed by using a wide range of drugs containing the hormone, testosterone deficiency means either a drop in the levels of secreted testosterone or a glitch in the absorption system. Both of these are bad news for males.
Since testosterone is responsible for those physical and psychological traits that make males what they are, a deficiency in production or absorption can trigger a significant change in these traits. Men going through andropause are usually prone to gaining weight, depression and anxiety, bladder and erectile dysfunctions, fatigue and other unpleasant symptoms. This is why we recommend frequent checks of testosterone levels for males above the age of 35. If you are experiencing a temporary dip in testosterone levels, you may want to try the excellent VolumePills or ProSolution Pills. These products are rich in zinc, one of the key substances used by the male reproduction system, and other natural ingredients designed to stimulate the production of testosterone without endangering the rest of the body. Give VolumePills or ProSolution Pills a chance to help you and you won’t regret it.

Acne scars – a review
Acne scars are the marks left behind by lesions that had not healed or had become inflamed. Their size, frequency and type depend on various genetic factors, which are particular to every person. Some persons are more likely to see scars forming on their skin, due to their heritage and skin colour. This is why many people want to make sure their lesions will heal properly.
There are only two types of acne scars. The simplest scar is nothing more than a spot of skin bearing a brown, pink or purple colour, testimony to the fact that… Continue reading
Who gets acne?
Believe it or not, nearly everybody in the world gets pimples. When the body shifts into higher gear and puberty begins at the age of 12, hormones start taking over. It doesn not matter if you抮e a man or a woman. It doesn not matter where you come from and who your parents were. I have never heard of a person who had stayed blemish-free in all the years of his or her life. Whether it抯 food or pollution, something is bound to upset your hormonal balance sooner or later.

How hormones affect zits and skin
Implicated in a wide range of conditions and illnesses, hormones also play a role in the development of acne - inflammation of the skin that causes blackheads, whiteheads, and red spots usually called “pimples” or “zits.” Androgens, hormones that are secreted in different amounts by both men and women, play a huge role in most cases of acne. Androgens stimulate the hormone-sensitive sebaceous glands, which produce oil known as sebum. Sebum, in turn, has been labeled as “the fuel that feeds the flame of acne.”
Teens are more likely to suffer from breakouts because at… Continue reading
