Can neutering help my male cat's aggression and territorial behavior?

Question

My cat is male and 3 years old. Would neutering him now help with any aggression issues that he has, like attacking people and being territorial?

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your cat. Yes, neutering will likely help these issues. It will take approximately 30 days for the testosterone to decrease in his system after the procedure. Some of his behaviors may be learned and may not entirely resolve, but neutering should help. I hope this information helps!
