Guys, there’s a new villain in town…
And it likes to steal your testosterone.
Okay, maybe steal is not the best word to use, but what it may do is lower your testosterone levels, therefore leaving you a shell of the man you used to be.
What is this crazy testosterone stealer?
Pain Killers and T-Levels
Do you have an injury that requires the use of pain killers?
If so, have you been on those pain killers for three months or longer?
Have you noticed any changes in your body, like lower energy levels, less strength, bedroom issues?
If so, I am sorry to say you may be suffering from a potential side effect of the pain medication.
Opiates – potent pain killers – may be linked to lower testosterone levels.
Yes, opiates may be one of the BIGGEST robbers of your vital T, which could leave you weaker, less energetic, and less virile than ever before.
And, as much as you probably don’t want to believe it, a new study links frequent long-acting opiate use to lower testosterone levels.
See for yourself…
The study was geared to see the effects of long-term opiate use on testosterone levels in men who used them daily for chronic pain.
Of the 81 men (between the ages of 26 and 79 years old), not one of the men had a previous diagnosis of hypogonadism.
Hypogonadism refers to the diminished functional activity of the gonads – or the testes in men – leading to less testosterone production.
The study showed that 53 percent of the men receiving opiate treatment daily were suffering from hypogonadism.
And, 74 percent of men who were taking long-acting opioids (longer term pain relief) were also suffering from hypogonadism.
Comparatively, only 34 percent of men on short-acting opioids were suffering from this disorder.
Now, here are the surprising findings:
After making some adjustments for BMI and dosage, they found that men, who were on long-acting opioids, were 4.78 times MORE LIKELY to become hypogonadal than men on short-acting opioids.
What’s the take home message?
“Among a contemporary sample of men receiving chronic daily opioids, we found a high prevalence of hypogonadism associated with duration of action, but not with total daily dose of the opioid.”
The Silent Testosterone Robber
Many people who suffer from chronic pain are commonly prescribed opioids – or pain killers – to control their pain and enable them to live a normal life.
However, what most men may not realize is that the pain killers they are taking may be leading to lower testosterone levels.
And that this may be robbing them of their energy levels, strength, and virility among other things.
But before you think all hope is lost....
