Warning sign no. 6: Lower bone density

Testosterone helps in the regulation of bone density. Your bones could become less dense if you go through andropause. This can develop into osteoporosis, a condition that affects your bones. They get fragile and frail, allowing them to fracture more quickly.

Osteoporosis can not always present obvious symptoms. You may not realize you have the condition unless you experience an atypical bone fracture or take a standard screening test. If your doctor thinks you have it, he or she may perform a bone density test. They may also conduct a blood test to determine your testosterone levels.
