Testosterone levels naturally decline with age, sometimes causing undesirable symptoms. Low testosterone is linked to lack of energy, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, mood changes, sexual dysfunction, poor sleep, and more. Several factors can accelerate decreasing testosterone levels including chronic illnesses, injuries, obesity, stress, and medications. Getting tested to determine if low levels are causing symptoms is recommended for men over age 30. Timely treatment can relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.
Physical and emotional symptoms of low testosterone provide clues about declining levels before testing confirms a deficiency. Being aware of common symptoms aids in early detection and treatment.
- Irritable or depressed mood - Lack of motivation and focus - Reduced self-confidence
- Reduced libido (sex drive) - Erectile dysfunction - Fewer spontaneous erections - Infertility
Accurately measuring testosterone levels requires a blood test. HormoVital provides state-of-the-art testing to uncover hormone imbalances. Diagnosing low testosterone involves checking total testosterone, free testosterone, and related hormones and vitamins.
- Total testosterone level below 300 ng/dL often requires treatment - Testing optimal in the early morning when levels peak - Repeat testing sometimes needed for accuracy - Related hormone and nutrient checks provide context
HormoVital leverages advanced testing technologies and expertise interpreting results. Our comprehensive reports detect causes of symptoms so optimal treatment plans can be created.
If testing confirms low testosterone levels are causing symptoms, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is often recommended. When properly implemented and monitored, TRT offers life-changing benefits:
- Increased energy, stamina and strength - Reduced body fat, increased lean muscle mass - Stronger bones, reduced fracture risk - Improved physical function
- Balanced, stable mood - Heightened motivation and confidence - Greater focus and concentration - Reduced irritability
- Increased sex drive and erection quality - Improved orgasm and pleasure
With treatment at HormoVital, most men enjoy better health along with improved body composition and self-assurance. Our expertise results in maximized benefits with minimized risks.
We offer flexible testosterone therapy customized to your needs. Testing is always the first step before developing your personalized treatment plan which may include:
Absorbed through the skin daily, gels provide steady testosterone levels. Types include Androgel and Testim. Some skin irritation may occur.
Injected deeply into muscles biweekly, cypionate and enthate esters release testosterone into the bloodstream over time. Levels peak and decline between doses. These are lower cost options.
Androderm patches worn on the skin daily release testosterone continuously. Skin reactions can occur at application sites.
Testopel pellets implanted under the skin surgically release hormones steadily over months. This approach eliminates frequent dosing.
Follow-up testing determines if adjustments to formulations or doses provide ideal symptom relief and testosterone levels for you individually. We partner closely with a local compounding pharmacy to prepare customized treatments when advantageous.
Our experience optimizing diverse treatments ensures outstanding outcomes. We guide patients toward their therapeutic sweet spot efficiently.
