Some people are quite happy to have lower testosterone. If you aren't that's fine too. Higher testosterone is associated with shorter lifespan and greater vulnerability to some illnesses. It just is what it is. What I find interesting is how personally some people might take the idea that testosterone has negative health impacts. It has positives: it helps build and maintain muscle and increases energy levels, but that's not the whole story.
