Low testosterone levels can cause fatigue, reduced libido, mood changes, muscle loss, and weight gain. Symptoms may also include cognitive issues, sleep problems, and decreased bone density. Identifying these signs can help determine if Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) might be beneficial for restoring balance and improving quality of life.
What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)?
When clinically indicated and properly managed, testosterone therapy offers several potential benefits for men with low testosterone (hypogonadism), including:
- Increased energy levels and stamina.
- Renewed sex drive and improved sexual functioning.
- Rebuilding of lean muscle mass and strength.
- Reduced body fat, especially around the abdomen.
- Sharper mental focus and concentration.
- Improved mood, motivation, and self-confidence.
Hormone therapy requires medical oversight to ensure safety and efficacy. Our medical staff will determine if hormone replacement is appropriate based on your symptoms, medical history, exam findings, and blood test results.
Why is TRT Important for Health and Wellness?
Balancing your hormones through TRT offers life-changing benefits including:
Improves Energy Levels: TRT helps alleviate fatigue and boost overall energy, enhancing daily functioning and vitality.
Enhances Mood: By balancing hormone levels, TRT can reduce symptoms of depression, irritability, and anxiety, leading to improved emotional well-being.
Restores Libido: TRT can increase sexual desire and performance, addressing common issues related to reduced libido.
Supports Muscle and Bone Health: It helps maintain or increase muscle mass and strength, and improves bone density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
Boosts Cognitive Function: TRT can enhance focus, memory, and overall cognitive performance.
Aids in Weight Management: By improving metabolism and reducing fat accumulation, TRT can assist in managing weight and promoting a healthier body composition.
What Causes Hormonal Imbalance?
Aging: Natural decline in testosterone levels as men age, typically starting around middle age.
Medical Conditions: Conditions like diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome can impact hormone production.
Hormonal Disorders: Disorders of the pituitary gland or hypothalamus can disrupt hormone regulation.
Genetic Factors: Certain genetic conditions, such as Klinefelter syndrome, can affect testosterone levels.
Medications: Some medications, including steroids and certain antidepressants, can interfere with testosterone production.
Chronic Stress: Prolonged stress can affect hormone balance, including testosterone.
Lifestyle Factors: Poor diet, lack of exercise, excessive alcohol consumption, and smoking can all contribute to hormonal imbalances.
Injuries or Infections: Trauma or infections affecting the testes can impact testosterone production.
What is Hypogonadism?
Hypogonadism refers to a condition in which the gonads (sex glands) produce little or no sex hormones, resulting in deficient development of secondary sex characteristics. The causes of hypogonadism in males can be primary or secondary.
Primary Hypogonadism: This is due to problems within the testes themselves, such as genetic conditions (e.g. Klinefelter syndrome), mumps orchitis, cancer treatment, or aging.
Secondary Hypogonadism: This occurs when the hypothalamus or pituitary gland does not signal the testes to produce testosterone normally, for example due to obesity or type 2 diabetes.

How is Testosterone Deficiency Diagnosed?
Diagnosing testosterone deficiency requires a comprehensive medical evaluation by an experienced health provider. At our clinic, we take a thorough yet individualized approach to accurately diagnose low testosterone. This process involves:
Blood Testing
Blood work will be ordered prior to initial consultation. This is typically done in the morning when testosterone levels are highest. A low testosterone blood test, along with correlating symptoms, confirms the diagnosis of hypogonadism or testosterone deficiency.
Medical History Review
We will have an in-depth discussion about your symptoms, lab results and health history. This helps identify risk factors for low testosterone such as age, obesity, chronic illnesses, and medications.
Physical Exam
A physical exam allows evaluation of signs related to low testosterone. This involves examination of your general appearance, muscle mass, and breast tissue along with vital signs.
Consideration of Other Causes
Your medical provider will ensure your symptoms are not better explained by other medical conditions, sleep disorders, mental health issues, or side effects of medications. These factors need to be addressed or ruled out.
Choose and Begin Treatment
If eligible, our medical provider will customize a hormone replacement program for you based on budget, lab results, and goals. The pharmacy prepares your meds and ships it directly to you. We teach you how to use everything.
Ongoing Assessments
Testosterone deficiency is usually a chronic condition requiring long-term management. Follow-up blood tests, exams, and consultations are necessary to monitor treatment effectiveness and adjust therapy as needed.

Common Facts
We provide two options for improving your levels: testosterone cypionate injections and testosterone cream. Testosterone injections are administered using a thin insulin needle and are a more affordable option, while testosterone cream is applied topically and is more convenient to use. Both treatments are highly effective in optimizing testosterone levels. Additionally, we prescribe clomiphene citrate for men, which can help improve several aspects of male health, including low testosterone levels, hormone ratios, and sperm production.
The cost of treatment depends on individual needs and the specific treatment plan recommended by our physicians. The initial consultation is a flat rate of $250 and includes a physical exam, which typically lasts about an hour.
Subsequent costs vary based on the personalized treatment plan and its duration. Insurance usually covers blood work and diagnostic tests, provided that the health provider is within your coverage network
Typically, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is administered in cycles and combined with a diet and exercise plan. This approach allows the body time to rehabilitate and potentially boost natural testosterone production. Research indicates that excess belly fat can lower testosterone levels by increasing estrogen production, which negatively affects testosterone levels.
Studies have shown that TRT can aid in fat loss and muscle gain by enhancing muscle protein synthesis. Often, as men with low testosterone lose body fat and build muscle, their natural testosterone production may increase. Long-term TRT is usually not necessary but may be prescribed in specific cases.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for low testosterone. Our healthcare professionals tailor each treatment plan to the individual needs of the patient to determine the most effective hormone replacement therapy regimen.
Thyroid issues are common in men and can hinder the achievement of optimal testosterone levels. If left untreated, these issues may become a barrier to successful bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Our holistic treatment approach focuses on optimizing both testosterone and thyroid levels to eliminate any obstacles to success. By treating the root cause of the hormone problem, you can expect more significant results from your treatment. Additionally, thyroid treatment has many benefits beyond optimizing testosterone, such as improving sleep, energy, muscle strength, hair growth, and mood.
