Using testosterone patches is a tried and true form of testosterone replacement therapy. The patch is a transdermal system consisting of attaching a patch to a shaved area of the scrotum. This provides a therapeutic and steady level of testosterone to the bloodstream.

The testosterone patch is changed once a day and the reason it's used on the scrotum is because the skin is thinnest there allowing for more efficient delivery of the testosterone hormone.

Testosterone replacement therapy utilized by such forms as testosterone patches is the most common treatment for male menopause -- sometimes called andropause.

By supplementing the testosterone level and countering the effects of aging, which diminish this crucial hormone, a testosterone patch may alleviate many of the symptoms of male menopause.

Some of these symptoms from male menopause can include: low sex drive, fatigue, depression, lack of confidence and assertiveness, and even more.

Before testosterone patches existed, methods for raising testosterone blood levels were less safe. The most common offenders were anabolic steroids which were known to cause kidney disease and liver damage. Oral androgens can cause liver toxicity.

Applying a testosterone patch in the morning achieves the best effect. The natural patterns of the body are at their peak at this time. The patch thus mimics the natural pattern of the body and delivers 4-6 milligrams of testosterone.

An advantage of testosterone patches over other male testosterone boosters such as injections is that they provide time-released dosages. Whereas peaks and valleys may be incurred with other methods, employing a testosterone patch causes little instability with time.

The use of testosterone patches has been around for the last two decades and some have received approval from the FDA. Indeed, the their usage has become the most widespread method of treatment for testosterone deficiency. This is because as many as 92% of men ministered to with a testosterone patch have been shown to receive an adequate serum level.

Testosterone levels decrease rapidly after the age of 50. By age 80 blood levels have dropped to 20-50% of peak levels. Men with obesity, diabetes or hypertension may be in special need of a testosterone patch according to research conducted.

A vigorous and active sex life can be prolonged well into ones 70s and 80s with adequate testosterone.

Men may experience diminished libido, erectile dysfunction, muscle weakness, loss of body hair, depression, and mood disorders as a result of testosterone deficiency. Decreased frequency of erections, bone density losses, and other negative secondary sexual characteristic changes are also experienced. Muscle weakness and osteoporosis also go along with testosterone deficiency. The use of testosterone patches may be one way to alleviate these conditions.

Other factors can make a testosterone patch more useful in treating male menopause. Exercising and eating a healthy diet can help boost testosterone. Abstaining from smoking and excessive alcohol consumption is a key to keep testosterone levels healthy.

The use of testosterone patches is a viable option for testosterone replacement therapy to be discussed.

You've had your eye on that special someone. And from a distance, her smiles back in your direction indicate she's interested. Now, you really want to go over to her and break the ice to see if you can connect with her.

But wait -- as this idea becomes engaged as a "go" for you, you feel the confidence you need to follow through on your mission eluding you; self consciousness, doubt, and tentativeness now noticeably unfold.

"What if her smiles were just her way of being nice to me?"; "What if she's really not interested in me at all, and rejects my asking her out?" What if, what if, what if!

Im thinking you might be tired of "what-iffing" yourself into a corner, wishing you had the confidence to act upon your connection desire so you could triumph. If so, heres a tested, proven strategy I developed to help you decidedly build your self confidence -- enabling you to comfortably approach your potential Miss Right (or Miss Right Now), and positively connect with her.

These following tips are very targeted. And applying them as outlined will help you break the chains within you, so you can break the ice with her. Before you approach her:

1.)Fill yourself with every conceivable idea of why you're a person of worth, value, and desirability, i.e.,

"I am smart"

"I am interesting"

"I am capable"

"I am caring"

"I am honest, genuine and sincere", etc.

Pass as many of these self-truth type ideas through your mind that you can think of.

2.)Make yourself irresistible in your mind.

Form a clear and vivid impression of yourself as someone who women would find irresistible (and I just don't mean as a "sexual servicer"). Clearly see - and feel - yourself as a capable, provocative, confident, fun to be with embodiment of substance and esteem.

Practice cultivating this inner you, and holding it in your mind as the way you see you. (The more you do this, the more real it will seem, and really you it will become!)

3.)Define in your mind what's in it for her to meet, and connect with you.

Sell yourself on what you truly believe will be her benefit from contact with you (for example, she'll enjoy quality, sincere companionship. She'll feel valued, cared for, and special. She'll enjoy someone who can make her laugh, and feel appreciated, someone with whom she can feel safe, comfortable, and be herself with, etc.).

4.)Project a "Future Success...NOW" drama in your mind.

You've decided she's worth it, you're worth it, and you want it. Now mentally project a detailed scenario of yourself inwardly set and feeling totally confident to approach and speak with her. Then experience yourself initiating a dialogue with smoothness, poise and charm, communicating easily and freely about yourself, what you like about her, and confidently requesting a phone number or asking her out for a date.

Tell her where you'd like to go, what you'd like to do (be appropriate), and the kind of good time you feel will be had.

Notice and enjoy her receptivity to your confident directness, your comfortable natural communication, and your appealing interactive style.

Experience yourself easily, freely saying what you need and want to, in the way you need and want to.

Make this scenario as clear, realistic and sensory rich as you possibly can. After you've played this inner drama all the way through, momentarily savor the impact and affect your natural appealing confidence registered with her. Then say to yourself, "I CAN do this; now I just smoothly go ahead and take action."

The next time you get a smile, hair twirl, or other non-verbal interest response, apply tips 1-4. Then, just walk up to your opportunity and fully be the incredible you!
