Hormonal imbalance can affect men at any stage of life, but most experience a significant decline in testosterone levels around middle age. As testosterone levels drop, a wide range of symptoms may appear or intensify—such as fatigue, mood swings, sleep disturbances, reduced sex drive, and erectile dysfunction. When multiple symptoms occur together, this condition is often referred to as andropause, or "male menopause."
In addition to low testosterone, men may also experience thyroid imbalances, adrenal fatigue, and other hormone-related disorders that can impact energy, focus, muscle mass, and overall quality of life.
At Advanced Body Design in Tempe, our certified hormone health professionals use advanced lab testing and a comprehensive, root-cause approach to identify imbalances and develop customized bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) plans. Our goal is to help men regain strength, restore vitality, and feel their best—naturally and effectively.
If you are experiencing one of these symptoms on a frequent basis or multiple symptoms with increasing regularity, it is time to speak with a provider trained and certified in hormone health. EVEXIAS Health Solutions trains providers to assess your symptoms, lab results, and discuss how your life has changed since symptoms began. He/she can develop a complete treatment plan that includes bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, advanced nutraceuticals, and other integrated functional medicine therapies that help reduce stress and lower risk of disease.
Testosterone levels naturally decline in men, decreasing by approximately 1–2% each year—with the most noticeable drop typically occurring in middle age. By age 70, a man may have only one-third of the testosterone he had in his 20s. This gradual loss is often overlooked or dismissed as just a normal part of aging or stress.
However, low testosterone (Low T) is linked to serious health risks, including heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroke. Ignoring early signs of andropause—also known as male menopause—can allow these risks to progress into chronic health conditions.

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)—the consistent inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for sexual activity—is often misunderstood as purely a performance issue. In reality, hormonal imbalance is one of the most common underlying causes.
Hormones like testosterone, cortisol, prolactin, thyroid hormones, and estrogen all play vital roles in a man’s sexual function. When these become imbalanced, sexual health suffers—and often signals deeper health concerns.
Low testosterone and related hormonal imbalances don't just impact intimacy—they’re also associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, heart attack, stroke, osteoporosis, and decreased quality of life.
At Advanced Body Design in Tempe, we take a comprehensive, functional approach to men's health—using bioidentical hormone therapy, advanced diagnostics, and targeted lifestyle strategies to correct imbalances at the root.
You deserve to feel confident, strong, and connected. Let’s restore your health from the inside out.
While thyroid disorders are diagnosed far more frequently in women, they are often underdiagnosed in men—a trend that can have serious health consequences. Thyroid imbalances in men can contribute to a wide range of symptoms, including chronic fatigue, hair loss, low energy, weight gain, and even erectile dysfunction.
A 2015 study revealed that men are less likely to report symptoms of hypothyroidism and seek treatment, which may delay diagnosis and lead to worsening conditions. Left untreated, thyroid dysfunction can significantly impact metabolism, testosterone production, and overall hormonal health.
Thyroid function is regulated by a delicate feedback loop between three key hormones:
TSH is produced by the pituitary gland and signals the thyroid to release T4 and T3. T4, the more abundant hormone, is later converted into T3—the active form used by cells for energy production, metabolic regulation, and more. When T3 and T4 levels are balanced, they signal the body to reduce TSH production. But when this feedback loop is disrupted, the result is often hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
Common causes of thyroid dysfunction in men include:
The thyroid gland impacts nearly every cell in the body, playing a critical role in energy levels, metabolism, mood regulation, and sexual function. When thyroid hormones are imbalanced, men may experience:
At Advanced Body Design in Tempe, we use comprehensive lab testing to assess your complete thyroid panel, including TSH, T3, T4, and reverse T3, and identify any underlying imbalances. Our personalized hormone optimization programs support thyroid health and overall hormone function—helping you feel clear, energized, and strong again.
Stress is one of the most powerful and overlooked contributors to hormonal imbalance and overall health decline—especially in men. Unfortunately, many men are less likely to seek help for chronic stress, which can quietly wear down the body and disrupt vital hormone pathways.
One of the key ways stress impacts the body is through the adrenal glands, which regulate the production of cortisol, your body’s primary “fight or flight” hormone. When stress is persistent—whether physical, emotional, or environmental—your adrenal glands can become overworked. This condition, often referred to as adrenal fatigue, leads to hormone disruption throughout the body.
In the early stages of chronic stress, the adrenal glands release excess cortisol to keep up with the body’s demands. Over time, this overproduction leads to adrenal burnout, resulting in dangerously low levels of both cortisol and other critical hormones like DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone).
DHEA plays a vital role in regulating testosterone, estrogen, and other essential hormones. When DHEA and cortisol levels drop, men may experience:
Left unaddressed, adrenal fatigue can increase the risk of more serious conditions like thyroid dysfunction, low testosterone, insulin resistance, and even cardiovascular disease.
At Advanced Body Design, we take a root-cause approach to adrenal health and stress-related hormone imbalances. Treatment plans may include:
Our goal is to help men rebalance their hormones, rebuild their resilience, and regain their mental and physical edge.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a safe, effective, and life-changing solution for men struggling with the symptoms of low testosterone (Low T). Backed by extensive research, testosterone therapy not only alleviates common symptoms like fatigue, low libido, and muscle loss, but also offers significant long-term health benefits—such as a reduced risk of heart attack, stroke, and osteoporosis.
One of the most trusted and convenient forms of HRT is testosterone pellet therapy. This method delivers a consistent dose of bioidentical testosterone directly into the bloodstream, eliminating the fluctuations, mess, and dosing errors associated with creams, gels, or injections. Pellets are discreet, long-lasting, and designed to keep hormone levels stable for months at a time.
Men receiving testosterone therapy commonly report:
Clinical studies also suggest that maintaining optimal testosterone levels supports bone density, cardiovascular health, and may even improve cognitive function—including memory and spatial reasoning in men with Alzheimer’s disease.
At Advanced Body Design in Tempe, we’re here to help you regain your edge, protect your health, and feel like your strongest self again—with personalized hormone therapy designed just for you.
