Low testosterone (Low T) is a common occurrence among men as they age. Many men resort to different medical alternatives, such as Androgel, to help combat Low T. These Low T treatments have been linked to an increase in long-term health concerns, specifically related to the heart. Men who have had a heart attack, stroke or other serious health concern resulting from the use of Low T medication are filing lawsuits against the pharmaceutical manufacturer responsible. Medical Claim Legal can help if you have been harmed by Low T treatment.
What is Low T ?
Testosterone is a hormone in males and is produced by the body. It is at its highest levels during adolescence and the early adult years. The decline of testosterone is a normal occurrence; however, a low level of testosterone can also be the result of a disease known as hypogonadism.
Low T Therapy
The blanket term for combating Low T is known as Low T therapy. Low T therapy can range from injections, gels, patches and implants. The problem is that such Low T therapies can sometimes lead to serious side effects.
Therapy Side Effects
Early in 2015, the FDA issued an official warning to those using Low T treatments. The FDA listed these as the possible side affects for using such medical remedies:
- stroke
- heart attack
- death
The FDA mandated that the manufacturers of Low T therapies must make it known that their products increase the possibility of these dangerous side effects.
