Many men experience signs of low testosterone and hormone imbalance as they age. Common symptoms include low energy, decreased muscle mass, weight gain, low libido, erectile dysfunction, poor concentration, and mood changes. These often correspond with testosterone deficiency, which can greatly impact quality of life.
Proper diagnosis involves checking total and free testosterone levels via blood tests. Additional relevant labs include estradiol, SHBG, LH, FSH, PSA, prolactin vitamin D, thyroid hormones, and metabolic panels assessing cholesterol, blood sugar, kidney and liver function. Treatment should only proceed with lab confirmation of hormonal imbalance.
Timely evaluation and treatment can help men regain strength, vitality and healthier aging. Many find substantial benefits from properly managed hormone therapy.

There are several TRT administration options to suit individual needs and preferences:
Monitoring progress with follow-up bloodwork and dose adjustments ensures optimal treatment. Most men notice benefits within weeks, such as renewed energy, better mood and cognitive function, increased muscle mass and decreased body fat, stronger libido and sexual function, and better sleep quality.
