“The morning peak is around 10 or 11 o’clock. After that, it will go down. So if people check their testosterone in the afternoon, the results are invalid because they are obviously low. “That’s why you should be tested at 10 o’clock in the morning,” said a doctor practising at Pondok Indah IVC Central Hospital.
Testosterone itself is an important hormone in men. 95% of testosterone is produced in the ovaries. So if there is a problem with testosterone, it interferes with testosterone. So what are the functions of testosterone?
“First, the formation of the male sexual character, from the beard, the enlargement of the liver, the penis, everything that indicates masculinity. When puberty is reached, its job is to maintain the masculine characteristics and the organs that are affected by hormones. One of them is the sperm,” he explained.
Since its function is very important for men, Dr. Andronico suggests changing your lifestyle to a healthier one and exercising regularly to increase your testosterone levels.
“Testosterone production occurs naturally through exercise. With exercise we help to change production, because testosterone is a steroid, its component is fat. We don’t need extra fat, it is already abundant. “So exercise creates this change (increased testosterone production),” he said.
“The effect of exercise is greater, testosterone is better, endurance is also better and sexual desire is higher. “Really, exercise can be anything, but choose a light to moderate intensity,” he says.
Meanwhile, in terms of nutrition, Dr. Andronico recommends consuming foods rich in protein.
“However, what is most impressive is the way of life,” he said.
