All Men over 30 should read this! by R. Speizer (San Francisco, CA) 5 Stars
November 06, 2009
This is a life changing book. I began to wonder if the author was reading my diary. It is a manifesto of symptoms, and treatment of male menopause. Many men go undiagnosed, and suffer needlessly with loss of libido, and ED. It also talks about old attitudes about low testosterone among physicians, new research, health issues, as well as the physiology. While aimed at a lay audience it is not dumbed down at all and has much useful advice including what you need to know to approach your physician, and what lab work needed, how to interpet it, and modalites for treatment. Do not miss out on this, share it with your significant other, and your physician. The onset of male menopause is slow and insidious. Enjoy sex again. Enjoy life and love again. Buy this book. It is short and could be read in a few hours. The best money I ever spent on Amazon

Great Information all Men Should Know About by Don B. Nicholas (Charlotte NC) 5 Stars
August 19, 2009
I personally had low T. Lucky I stumbled across one of the few MD's that knew how to properly diagnose and treat the problem. There are far few Doctors and men that know about Testosterone replacement. This is a perfect book to spread the word - it's a quick read, well laid out and very informative.

Testosterone for Life by N. Riehl (Montana, USA) 5 Stars
August 11, 2009
Excellent book. No "filler" reading here. The author is a cutting-edge expert in the field of men's hormone therapy! Each page and each chapter gives the reader straightforward, precise information about symptoms, tests and treatment for "low T" -- that is, low testosterone. Although this book is written for men, it is also instructional for women who wish to understand and help the "man in her life," and how he may benefit from low T therapy to revive libido and energy. I recommend this book for both men and women of "middle age" who wish to understand age-related hormone deficiency, and how to test for it and what treatments are available.

testosterone for life by Alain J. Pigois (Idaho) 4 Stars
August 10, 2009
The book was new and was in an immaculate shape, but I expected it to arrive sooner than it did, althought it arrived 15 days after ordering, within the expected 15 days period, i.e. ordered 7/9 arrived on 7/23 within the 7/16-7/31. A seven days shipping time would be more appropriate even at the low shipping cost. The book is extremely well written,quite informative and to be recommended to any man interested in hormone replacement.

For the love of life by Pieter (Johannesburg) 5 Stars
July 10, 2009
Written by an expert in testosterone therapy, Testosterone for Life covers all aspects of testosterone & testosterone supplementation in a witty and accessible style. Drawing on 30 years' research, the author discusses the role of this hormone in the body, symptoms of its deficiency, safe supplementation and its benefits, plus the latest scientific breakthroughs. He uses anecdotes from his practice backed by established data and the latest research. The chapters conclude with case studies of men who have benefited by supplementation and a question & answer section. The book confirms Dr William Regelson's claims for testosterone in his groundbreaking book The Superhormone Promise but is more extensive and up to date. The symptoms of deficiency include libidinal dysfunction in many men over 40 years, erectile dysfunction, loss of energy, lethargy, fatigue, low mood or clinical depression, muscle loss and fat gain. Low testosterone also increases the risk of osteoporosis and resultant fractures. Boosting testosterone levels may lead to improved overall health, increased vitality, sharper mental agility and an increase in lean muscle mass whilst reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. Various ways of supplementation like the patch, gel, injection & pellet, possible side effects & medical monitoring are examined in detail. Morgentaler's research revealed that the historical fear of higher testosterone levels increasing the risk of prostate cancer is baseless, lacking scientific support. In fact the latest research results indicate just the opposite; that prostate cancer risk may be greater among men with low levels of the hormone. In the last chapter, the author investigates preliminary evidence which suggests that testosterone supplementation may profoundly improve quality of life by means of a wide array of general health benefits. Testosterone for Life is an informative read and valuable reference guide. The text is enhanced by illustrations. Of course testosterone is not the only natural hormone of which supplementation brings about improved health. The body's production of all of them declines with age. The benefits of DHEA, part of which is converted into testosterone in the body, are discussed by Stephen Cherniske and Ray Sahelian who has also written informative books on melatonin and pregnenolone. Ronald Klatz & Robert Goldman have long investigated anti-aging and age reversal techniques; testosterone is amongst the substances examined in their latest work The Official Anti-Aging Revolution.
