A member asked:
Do the testicles shrink with age as men get older? do men need testosterone replacement therapy as they get older?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Testicles do shrink in size as men get older and production of testosterone starts to fall off. Testosterone treatment becomes indicated when low levels are documented and symptoms of sexual dysfunction and/or low libido are present.
