Testosterone therapy

What is testosterone therapy?

Testosterone therapy, also known as TRT or testosterone replacement therapy, is a treatment that helps raise low testosterone levels in men back to normal. As men age, their bodies often make less testosterone, leading to unpleasant symptoms like low energy, reduced muscle mass, irritability, and low libido.

Testosterone therapy can greatly improve quality of life by alleviating these issues. It is delivered through injections, gels, patches or pellets implanted under the skin. Doses are customized based on factors like age and severity of deficiency. Most men start feeling better within weeks with regular treatment.

Some key points about TRT:

• It is FDA-approved to treat clinically low testosterone (a level below 300 ng/dL gets diagnosed).


• Finding an experienced hormone clinic is important to administer complete blood testing and provide real testosterone prescriptions (not supplements). Hormone Harmony Clinic, for example, has excellent physicians trained in age management medicine.


• Potential side effects like acne, hair loss and prostate issues are uncommon with proper moderated dosing, but testing helps monitor this.


• Injectable testosterone cypionate or enanthate tend to be most effective TRT treatments, compared to gels or patches that can transfer to others.


• Treatment is lifelong therapy, not a short-term fix, so committing to regular care is vital.

Maintaining healthy T levels allows men to keep strength, vitality and intimacy as part of graceful aging. Through an integrative care plan overseen by a reputable hormone replacement specialist, most men can experience substantial improvements in low testosterone symptoms and savor life again.

If declining vitality concerns you, ask your doctor about clinically low testosterone or set up a consultation at Hormone Harmony Clinic to explore TRT. Significant lifestyle upgrades may await you. Now is the time to take control of your wellbeing.
