Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a treatment used to help increase testosterone levels in men diagnosed with low testosterone, also known as hypogonadism or androgen deficiency. Over time low testosterone can lead to unwanted symptoms that impact quality of life. TRT is a safe and effective hormone treatment overseen by specialists to alleviate low T symptoms and restore health.
TRT involves delivering medical-grade testosterone to get testosterone levels back into the normal range. This is done through multiple delivery methods tailored to the patient: Testosterone injections - Injections into a muscle, typically done weekly Testosterone gels / creams - Topical gels or creams applied daily Testosterone pellets - Pellets implanted under the skin, slowly releasing testosterone over 3-6 months
The goal is to closely replicate the body’s natural testosterone production and avoid spikes or drops in levels. Throughout treatment, progress is monitored by consistent bloodwork and managed by an experienced medical team.
When performed properly and under the care of a hormone specialist, TRT offers an array of benefits:
Increased energy and endurance Improved mood and cognitive function More strength and muscle mass Better sleep quality Healthy libido and sexual performance Stronger bones and joints Decreased body fat and cell inflammation Improved overall wellbeing and vitality
Low testosterone, or “low T,” occurs when the testes do not produce adequate amounts of the male sex hormone testosterone. Many men over 30 experience declining testosterone levels as part of the natural aging process. However for some, testosterone loss exceeds age-related reduction resulting in bothersome hypogonadism symptoms that impact health and quality of life.
If multiple symptoms are present, lab testing is warranted to check testosterone, estrogen, and other hormone levels. A blood draw can determine if hormone imbalance is causing issues, and to what extent.
Comprehensive hormone panel testing provides crucial insights prior to starting any treatment program. These sensitive blood tests check levels of key hormones:
Test results are carefully reviewed by our medical team - optimal hormone balance is highly individualized. A treatment plan is then customized just for you based on lab work, symptoms, health history, age, and goals. Follow up blood tests will continue to guide your therapy.
Timing of lab draws is also key - testosterone levels peak in the early morning so tests should to be done before 10am for the most accurate readout.
While testosterone does decrease with age, some men develop symptomatic hormone deficiency much earlier in life. Multiple factors that impair hormonal balance include:
Regardless of age, bothersome symptoms combined with blood tests indicating low testosterone levels warrants TRT evaluation. Our clinic helps men in their 20’s to 80’s restore their vitality.

Since low testosterone develops gradually, associated signs often manifest subtly and are overlooked. Symptoms also vary - what is problematic for one man may not concern another. However when collective issues from hormonal decline begin to erode daily quality of life, TRT evaluation becomes crucial.
Depleted sex drive - Lacking desire, sexual avoidance Erectile dysfunction - Trouble achieving/maintaining erections Mental fog - Sluggish thinking, memory lapses Fatigue - Chronically tired despite adequate sleep Weight gain - Increased body fat, especially abdominal Muscle loss - Weakness despite training
Testosterone is master hormone that heavily influences male vitality - when deficient, enjoyment and vigor regarding sex, work, sports/fitness, relationships, and life interests often decline.
While agerelated testosterone reduction gradually progresses, more rapid loss causing bothersome impairment can manifest at any adult age prompted by: Chronic illnesses - diabetes, heart disease, etc Obesity Pituitary disorders Medications - opioid pain relievers, corticosteroids Infections - HIV, hepatitis, COVID-19 Testicular injury Congenital defects - undescended testes, Klinefelter’s syndrome
If multiple symptoms develop that impair daily quality of life, laboratory blood testing can determine if hormone imbalance is the cause even for younger men.
Moodiness - irritability, sadness, feeling “down” Sleep changes - less deep sleep, waking unrefreshed Hot flashes, night sweats common in perimenopause Joint pain, reduced flexibility Thinning hair on scalp, face, body Reduced sense of wellbeing - feeling apathetic
Keep in mind a “normal” total testosterone level can be abnormally low for YOU given individual metabolic differences. Remain open minded to treatment if bothersome impairment exists regardless of total T level.
Listen to your body - every man has unique sensitivities. TRT aims to restore you to your healthy baseline vitality regardless of age.
If low testosterone goes untreated due to overlooking symptoms or an inaccurate initial diagnosis, declining health progresses:
Additionally, the longer you wait the lower your testosterone levels drop making treatment progress slower. Like any degenerative condition, addressing the imbalance early on leads to faster health gains with TRT therapy.
