Doctor says 'man boobs' can be red flag of easily treatable condition

A doctor has revealed some of the common signs men could be suffering from low testosterone. Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome (TD) can affect men of all ages but is particularly noticed in those in their late 40s and early 50s.

Petr Holy, a urological specialist at Men’s Health Clinic Kingston, wants to raise awareness of the red flags, which he says can often be dismissed by patients. He said: “Testosterone deficiency is a recognised condition and one which can have serious implications on quality of life for sufferers.

“It’s a difficult topic for some to talk about as they can wrongly assume a decline in testosterone somehow makes them ‘less of a man’. In reality, it’s a common condition with some estimates suggesting it affects around one in four.”
