Chinese patent medicine for increasing male hormone

Androgens, like estrogens, are the main endocrine differences between men and women. This difference is mainly caused by physiological differences. But sometimes, if there is less male hormone, it can make some men lack masculinity. It may even cause some diseases. So everyone can supplement it through medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. So, what are the Chinese patent medicines that can increase male hormone levels?

Androgens, also known as male hormones, are hormones that maintain normal sexual desire and reproductive function. Lack of male hormones can cause many health problems. Androgens can regulate the distribution and composition percentage of human adipose tissue and inhibit the increase or buildup of body fat. Low androgen levels can cause obesity, abdominal fat accumulation, and other metabolic diseases are likely to follow.

Normal adult males secrete 8 (4-12) mg of testosterone per day, with great individual differences. 95% of the testosterone released into the blood by men comes from the testicles. The testosterone released by women in the blood mainly comes from the adrenal cortex. 98% of the testosterone in the blood is transported in combination with a special α-globulin, namely corticosteroid binding globulin (CBG) or testosterone binding globulin (TBG). A small amount of testosterone is non-specifically bound to albumin or exists in the blood in a free form.

The ability of the testicles to synthesize testosterone is much greater than that of the adrenal cortex. Therefore, when the testicles secrete insufficient androgen, the adrenal cortex cannot compensate or replace it. However, vasectomy has no effect on the secretion of testosterone in testicular interstitial cells. The synthetic androgen analogue nandrolone phenylpropionate (phenylpropylnortestosterone) also has the effect of promoting protein synthesis in the body, but its androgenic effect is lower than that of testosterone. The synthetic 17α-methyltestosterone has the highest physiological efficiency of androgen and can be taken orally to exert its effect. Both are commonly used drugs in clinical practice.
