Low androgen levels are a common yet often overlooked contributor to fatigue, loss of vitality, reduced lean mass, cognitive changes, and diminished quality of life in midlife men and women. While testosterone often takes center stage, a broader understanding of androgen physiology—including DHEA and its downstream metabolites—offers valuable insight into aging, catabolism, and stress adaptation.
Register to learn more about:
- The physiology and clinical effects of androgens throughout the body, including sex-specific patterns of age-related decline
- How dried urine hormone testing can assess not only androgen production, but also hormone metabolism and stress-related factors that influence androgen balance
- How DUTCH findings can guide clinical decision-making and individualized treatment strategies through male and female case studies
- Evidence-informed hormonal and non-hormonal interventions within a functional medicine framework
