Our practitioner also looks at your symptoms as well as your levels, working to optimize your testosterone and restoring your quality of life.
Men’s testosterone levels can start to drop in their late 20’s. A decrease in testosterone can result in unwanted symptoms such as low libido, reduced muscle mass, impaired memory, slow metabolism, and fatigue. Unfortunately, due to multi variable factors, general population male Testosterone levels have begun to decrease at a faster rate than prior generations. This has lead to a reduction of 25% Testosterone in the general population of males since 1999 comparatively.
98% of men found testosterone replacement to have a positive improvement in their ability to focus and improve work motivation.
Additional studies confirm testosterone to be linked to dominance, motivation, and status striving. Testosterone heightens motivation to complete tasks and overall performance enhancement.
The Goal of Testosterone Replacement Therapy:
Testosterone deficiency is a recognized medical condition. It is important to have a thorough diagnostic blood work up to not only identify a deficiency, but to also look for potentially reversible causes and exclude possible contraindications.
The aim of Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is to correct the deficiency to levels where nature intended for men or women. This has traditionally meant administering testosterone monotherapy to help restore testosterone levels to within normal physiological parameters for long term physical and psychological health.
From a qualitative perspective, the aim of TRT is to reverse the negative symptoms associated with having a deficiency. Replacement can improve sexual interest and function, increase bone density and muscle mass, enhance cognition, maintain overall quality of life, strengthen cardiovascular health, and balance overall mood.
With any medical regimen, it’s important to be aware of side effects and risks. With testosterone replacement therapy we monitor for worsening sleep apnea, elevated estrogen levels and associated side effects, acne, fluid retention, worsening symptoms of BPH, erythrocytosis, among others. To date, no study has proven direct causation of testosterone replacement and prostate cancer. These topics will be discussed in depth during your initial assessment making sure testosterone replacement is right for you.
