Rise in Testosterone Therapy Among Younger Men

There has been a significant increase in testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), especially among younger men under 40, with a notable rise of 12.4% in prescriptions for this demographic over the last decade. Many younger individuals are seeking TRT for self-improvement related to energy, libido, and muscle development. The popularity of social media is influencing this trend, as health influencers often promote testosterone’s purported benefits without sufficient medical acknowledgment. A study indicated that nearly 40% of the surveyed men expressed interest in testosterone supplementation, showing a pronounced disconnect between awareness and medical advice.
