Are you often fatigued? Struggle to sleep? Suffer from aches and pains? Plagued by stubborn belly fat that won’t shift?
These might sound like the inevitable signs of ageing, but if you’re a man over 35, private clinics may have another diagnosis: low testosterone.
Based on your results, for around £150 a month, you’ll get your treatment – testosterone jabs – delivered to your door.
One clinic boasts that it has sold more than 200,000 testosterone blood tests in the UK, with around 30,000 men currently on its treatment programme.
However, leading experts argue these clinics are medicalising vague symptoms such as fatigue – that everyone experiences at some point – to sell testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to men who don’t need it.
