Testosterone Therapy
Overview
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a unique type of hormone replacement therapy designed to restore healthy testosterone levels in someone who suffers from low T. TRT is actually quite similar to the use of insulin in type-I diabetics; the body is lacking endogenous production of a necessary hormone, so it needs to be “replaced” with an exogenous source.
Detail Description
In the case of TRT, this means using exogenous testosterone (generally prescribed as an injection) to bring testosterone levels back to a healthy range. While the majority of males on TRT are over the age of 50, younger men are taking action into their own hands and having their testosterone levels checked these days. We strongly encourage this if you are experiencing symptoms of low T.
Over the last decade, testosterone has become one of the most widely prescribed medications across the United States.
Here are the most common symptoms of low T that men experience:
- Decreased libido/sex drive
- Erectile dysfunction (impotence)
- Low energy throughout the day
- Loss of muscle mass and strength
- Increase in body fat
- General depression
- Small or shrinking testes
- Poor concentration (brain fog)
- Infertility
- Hot flashes
- Low red blood cell count (anemia)
- Brittle bones and general weakness
- Hair loss (particularly body hair)
- Sleep apnea (or other sleep disorders)
If you’re experiencing any (or all) of these symptoms, you may be a candidate for TRT. However, it’s necessary we confirm your testosterone levels through blood work before we make any decisions.
