Common methods to increase male androgen levels:
1. Balanced diet: Consume foods rich in protein and vitamins, such as meat and eggs, to provide the body with essential nutrients. Fresh fruits and vegetables are rich in various vitamins and play a significant role in maintaining normal metabolic function. Seafood such as scallops, oysters, and sea fish, as well as animal organs like pork and duck liver, which are rich in trace elements, can supply key micronutrients necessary for androgen secretion. It is also important to quit smoking and drinking alcohol, and to avoid spicy or irritating foods that may negatively affect the body.
2. Regular exercise: Engage in moderate physical activity, especially a combination of strength training and aerobic exercise, such as playing basketball, swimming, or running. Strength training enhances muscle strength, while aerobic exercise improves cardiopulmonary function; together, they enhance overall physical fitness and stimulate androgen secretion.
3. Healthy lifestyle habits: Ensure adequate sleep and avoid prolonged mental stress, which also helps maintain normal hormone levels.
4. Medical treatment: Medication or hormone replacement therapy may be used when necessary.
