Some lab tests may be affected by AndroForte use. The physician ordering the lab work should be informed if AndroForte is a current medication.

AndroForte may cause an enlarged prostate and increased serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in blood tests.

In patients with diabetes who take insulin, higher testosterone levels may decrease their blood sugar levels. Be prepared to treat hypoglycemia while using this medication. 

Patients applying AndroForte may experience some sodium and water retention. They should weigh themselves daily. 

AndroForte can affect serum cholesterol levels and calcium levels. Liver function tests may report elevated values.

Long-term use of AndroForte may lower a patient’s white blood cell (WBC) count, placing a patient at greater risk of infection.

Hypogonadism (often known as Low T) is a fairly common condition that can affect men of any age. However, it is more likely to occur and to increase steadily with age.

The most common symptoms are: 

• Depressed mood and decreased libido
• Disrupted sexual desire and performance, with erectile dysfunction and infertility coming from low sperm count
• Decreases in muscle development, mass, and strength
• Lethargy, sleep disturbances, and reduced energy levels

The most decisive evidence comes from blood tests that measure testosterone levels.
