Learn the Signs and Symptoms of Low Testosterone

Find out How to Help the Man in Your Life with this Common Condition, Watch The Balancing Act TV Show on Lifetime Television

BrandStar Entertainment’s The Balancing Act on Lifetime Television is motivating women to take notice of the size of their male partner’s waistline.  Men’s health expert Dr. Harry Fisch, Director of the Male Reproductive Center at Columbia University, will discuss how an increasing mid-section may make men more likely to have health conditions like low testosterone. The segment airs May 6th, June 9th, and June 18th and can also be viewed at http://www.thebalancingact.com//lowtestosterone.

 

“Low testosterone affects more than 13 million men in the U.S. ages 45 and older but less than 10 percent are receiving treatment,” explains Dr. Fisch. “Signs and symptoms of low testosterone can include depressed mood, fatigue, low sex drive and erectile dysfunction.”

 

Dr. Fisch encourages viewers to visit www.IsItLowT.com, an important resource for individuals who want to learn more about low testosterone. The Web site includes information on how conditions like obesity and diabetes can make men ages 45 and older more likely to have low testosterone and features a quiz that men can take to assess their risk for the condition.

 

“Dr. Fisch is addressing a very important health concern that is not often discussed,” states Doug Campbell, Executive VP of Programming for BrandStar Entertainment, the producer of The Balancing Act TV show. “We are delighted that he is educating women about low testosterone in men and encouraging them to be their partner’s healthcare advocate.”
