As men age, they may experience declining energy levels, loss of muscle mass, weight gain, low libido, erectile dysfunction, and mood changes. These issues can significantly impact quality of life. However, through hormone replacement therapy (HRT), also known as testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), many of these age-related changes can be improved or reversed.
Signs and symptoms that may indicate low testosterone include:
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, getting your hormone levels tested is important for identifying any deficiencies. Optimal Hormone Wellness Center offers comprehensive lab testing services to accurately diagnose hormone imbalances.
TRT can provide transformative improvements in many areas:
The impacts of TRT extend far beyond sex drive - it can improve your whole outlook on life.
The first step is getting lab testing done to accurately check testosterone, estrogen and other hormone levels. Optimal Hormone Wellness Center uses industry-leading testing providers to ensure precise results.
Once a hormone deficiency is identified, TRT can commence. Treatment is administered via injections, gels or pellets that continuously release testosterone into your system. This treats the underlying cause of low testosterone symptoms.
Follow-up testing is done to ensure optimum therapeutic testosterone levels are achieved and maintained. Our experienced medical team works closely with every patient to provide fully customized treatment regimens to meet their unique health goals.
A recent study found that men who have a pet dog tend to have lower blood pressure, cholesterol and triglyceride levels compared to men without dogs. Researchers believe that owning and caring for a dog may motivate men to take better care of their own health through more regular exercise and outdoor activities.
