Low testosterone: What helps?

Thanks for writing. My husband had 2 stents put in because he had a blockage. He is on medication because of this which may also affect his testosterone levels. Luckily he did not have a heart attack. My husband is the kind of guy who is busy all the time either working, being involved with a charitable organization which we have many social obligations or working around the house. I did not realize he felt so tired until he told me so he made an appointment with the cardiologist. Cardiologist said his heart was fine so he went to a urologist who said he has low testosterone but keep exercising and watch alcohol consumption and that she wouldn't be able to treat him with hormones because of the medication he is on. She said testosterone therapy has many side effects for people with heart issues. So we are looking to see if anyone knows of anything other than what he is doing. What have you done to make you feel better?

@melissa123 Hello. When I saw your post, I felt like I was reading about my husband! He too has low T that is 150 but is 62 years old. He also has heart trouble and had two stents inserted about two years ago. He did, unfortunately, have a heart attack though, they didn’t catch his heart issues in time. He also has diabetes. It has been a nightmare! He has all the symptoms of low T, especially the depression, ED, and low energy. I was curious if you and your husband have found out anything that has been useful to help with the low T levels, or any other advice you might have discovered that could help. He was just diagnosed with the low T in the last couple of weeks. They are prescribing him a roll on hormone cream. The doctor isn’t sure how long he can be on the T cream because of his heart issues, so they’ll be monitoring him very closely. We are at our wit’s end. Any information that you may have found would be greatly appreciated! I hope your husband is doing well and has found some relief from those symptoms. They have made my husband’s life so difficult. Thank you in advance!
