The relationship between stress and testosterone levels is a vicious cycle. High stress lowers testosterone in men. But being aware of your low T levels can cause you to feel more stress. Before you panic and feel helpless, know that there are ways for you to simultaneously combat stress and boost testosterone. Let us show you how.
Any man can develop low testosterone levels at any point in his life. However, the chance of having low T levels increases as you age, the more weight you put on, and the more stressed out you are. Stress and low T levels are closely related, and many of their symptoms are the same. Some of these include:
The commonality lies in the relationship between testosterone and the stress hormone.
When under stress, the body releases the hormone cortisol. This hormone is a survival mechanism that’s released in fight-or-flight situations. Studies suggest that cortisol and testosterone work against each other. When survival is on the line, the last thing your body is going to be concerned with is testosterone levels. Granted, most men today aren’t fighting off attacks from dangerous animals, but the same hormone, cortisol, is released in their bodies. What stress is and where it comes from has evolved along with man. It is no longer the wild tiger lurking in the shadows; it is now the project due next Wednesday or the bills that have to be paid.
Dealing with stress is going to help raise testosterone levels and make you feel better in the long run. These are some easy ways to lower your stress.
Keeping your stress level in check leads to healthier T levels and improves your overall well-being. Take our symptom checker quiz today to find out if you have low levels of testosterone.

They are the most efficient, thorough and caring group of individuals I’ve ever experienced.

Everyone is kind and helpful.Kori Misson2022-12-21I cannot accurately describe in words how I feel about this practice and the entire staff. I have had quite a few health issues throughout the years, rheumatoid arthritis, sjogrens, weight gain, hair loss, irritability, and that is just the beginning. I had pretty much given up on feeling good, just decided to "live with it" and hope for the best. Two very close friends love the Hotze Wellness Clinic and they have experienced life changing health. Made my appointment and from the beginning I felt heard. Not a in and out fast food style practice. They are looked and are looking at my entire body for overall health and wellness. Connections from mind and body to clinical blood work, even dental questions....they care and I feel as if I can trust them. I am on a path to complete wellness and my goal is to have my RA back in remission as it once was....make yourself a priority. Having hope is an incredible feeling!
