Join our candid discussion on the King of Hormones: Testosterone. This episode covers everything from the ins and outs of this sex hormone, its functions in both men and women, its impact on mood, cognition, metabolism and energy to some common misconceptions (No, it doesn't have a direct impact on 'that' size guys!). We also touch upon the importance of exercise, healthy diet and stress management in maintaining testosterone levels. Plus, there's a sprinkling of hilarious scoops from a pediatrician's diary. Source warning: an occasional 'penis' word gets thrown around. So buckle up for a rib-tickling, hormone-filled ride!
