Male hypogonadism is a condition in which the body doesn’t produce enough of the hormone that plays a key role in masculine growth and development during puberty (testosterone) or enough sperm or both. You can be born with male hypogonadism, or it can develop later in life, often from injury or infection.
In males, high testosterone is most frequently due to anabolic steroid use or testosterone supplementation. In females, it typically results from an underlying medical condition. People who show symptoms of high testosterone should see their doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
Testosterone declines as you age, but other factors can also cause low testosterone, including certain medications, high body-fat levels, and some health conditions ( 1 , 2 ) . Low testosterone, also called hypogonadism or low T, occurs when testosterone levels fall below 300 nanograms/deciliter (ng/dL).
