Understanding Low Testosterone

Testosterone is an essential hormone that plays a vital role in vitality, energy, strength, muscle mass, sexual function, mood, memory, focus, and overall health in men. However, testosterone levels naturally decline with age, at a rate of about 1% per year after age 30. Low testosterone, medically known as hypogonadism or "low T", has become increasingly common among aging men.

The signs and symptoms of low testosterone may include:

• Low energy and fatigue


• Depression, irritability, and mood swings


• Loss of muscle mass


• Weight gain, especially belly fat


• Difficulties with sexual function - low libido and erectile dysfunction


• Poor concentration, memory, and focus

If multiple symptoms are present, getting tested and addressing low T may significantly improve quality of life.

The Benefits of TRT

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) under medical supervision can provide immense benefits for men with clinically low testosterone levels, including:

• Increased energy, vitality and endurance


• Improved mood, motivation, and sense of well-being


• Enhanced muscle mass, strength, and exercise performance


• Better sexual desire, performance, and satisfaction


• Sharper mental clarity and focus


• Healthier body composition - decreased fat and increased muscle

With customized treatment plans tailored to the individual, most men on TRT report feeling years younger, stronger, sharper, and happier. TRT allows men to regain their vitality and optimize their masculinity.

TRT Treatment Basics

There are several delivery methods for medically prescribed testosterone:

• Testosterone injections - The most common and cost-effective method. Injections are given weekly or biweekly.


• Testosterone gels / creams - Topical gels applied daily to the arms, shoulders or abdomen.


• Testosterone pellets - Small testosterone-containing implants placed under the skin every 3-6 months.


• Oral testosterone capsules - Taken orally once or twice per day.

The best TRT option depends on the patient's preferences, needs, and anatomy. Our knowledgeable medical team will help find the optimal regimen.

The goal is not to maximize testosterone levels, but to restore them to a healthy, youthful range based on the patient's physiology. This is best achieved through ongoing blood tests, monitoring of progress, and making dosage adjustments as needed under medical supervision.

When properly managed, TRT is extremely safe and effective. However, improperly managed TRT can lead to side effects and health risks.
