How to boost testosterone levels?
There are herbs that naturally boost testosterone levels and there’s credible science to support this. Testofen (fenugreek seeds) have shown a positive effect and may help raise free testosterone levels by 60 percent. It’s found in Ageless Male testosterone booster along with vitamin B6 and zinc – both essential for sperm quality and testosterone production.
The problem with most of those ideas is that they assume that if you can somehow affect the mechanisms inside your body that produce testosterone that they can increase production and thus increase the steady state level. That isn’t correct. Testosterone levels are regulated by a closed feedback loop. In men, the hypothalamus monitors testosterone levels. It produces a hormone called GnRH (Gonadotropin releasing hormone) which is sensed by the pituitary, which proportionally releases two hormones called FSH (Follicle stimulation hormone) and LH (Leutinizing hormone). In men, FSH is detected in the testes and causes production of sperm, while LH is also detected in the testes and causes production of testosterone. (In women, GnRH, FSH, and LH have an entirely different function and behave completely differently.) There is a small amount of testosterone produced by the adrenal glands, but it’s unimportant. Even if that amount could be increased, it wouldn’t have any effect — not just sm
