Testosterone is an essential hormone for men's physical, mental, and sexual health. As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline leading to a condition called hypogonadism or low testosterone (low T). Maintaining healthy testosterone levels is key for vitality, quality of life, preventing chronic illness, emotional wellbeing, and relationship satisfaction.
Testosterone deficiency can negatively impact men's health in many ways:
Fortunately, testosterone deficiency is treatable through testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) which can reverse many of these effects, improving health and vitality.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) involves supplementing the body's natural testosterone production with bioidentical testosterone medication. This therapy aims to restore testosterone levels improving symptoms of low T.
TRT is administered under medical supervision in one of several forms:
With treatment, patients report increased energy, improved body composition, better moods, enhanced libido, and an overall restored vitality. Careful monitoring ensures optimal and safe testosterone levels are achieved for the long term.
Since low testosterone symptoms can be vague, testing is needed for accurate diagnosis. Harmony Hormone Center provides state-of-the-art testosterone blood testing on-site determining total and free testosterone levels.
Symptoms alone are not enough for diagnosis. A doctor will evaluate lab results, medical history, symptoms and perform a physical exam before recommending TRT.
Common reasons for low testosterone include:
If tests confirm hypogonadism, TRT offers safe, effective treatment under a specialist's care.
Harmony Hormone Center physicians are testosterone therapy experts, specializing in TRT protocols tailored to each patient's needs and lifestyle for optimal outcomes.
Factors considered when developing personalized treatment plans include:
By evaluating these factors, we determine the safest, most effective protocol - injections, gels or pellets. Follow-ups ensure progress, adjusting the approach as needed.
Going beyond the initial protocol, we provide nutritional and fitness guidance empowering patients to improve diet, activity levels and stress management - all impacting testosterone and wellness. Our goal is restoring vibrancy through customized care.
Testosterone therapy has been found to increase levels of thromboxane, a chemical that promotes blood clotting, in as little as 3 weeks. However, the long-term clinical impact of this effect is still unknown and requires more research to determine if it leads to increased risk of blood clots in patients receiving the treatment.
