Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) has become an increasingly popular treatment option for men suffering from low testosterone levels, also known as hypogonadism or "low T". Testosterone is an essential hormone that plays a crucial role in male health and vitality. However, testosterone levels naturally decline with age, and low T can lead to a variety of symptoms including low energy, decreased muscle mass, erectile dysfunction, and loss of motivation.
TRT can help men restore healthy testosterone levels through the administration of bioidentical testosterone via injections, gels, patches or pellets. When properly implemented and monitored, TRT offers life-changing benefits for men wishing to regain the energy and vitality associated with youth.
There are several potential causes of low testosterone in men:
Identifying and addressing the underlying cause of low T through proper testing and diagnosis should be the first step for hypogonadal men. TRT can help relieve symptoms when low T is due to aging, obesity or other issues impacting testosterone levels.
When properly managed by an experienced Balance Hormone Center hormone specialist, testosterone replacement therapy can provide a wide array of benefits for men suffering from low T, including:

Low testosterone, or "low T," has numerous potential causes including aging, obesity, chronic health conditions, infections, medications, pituitary tumors, and genetic factors. An experienced hormone specialist will help determine the cause through proper testing.
Symptoms may include low energy and fatigue, decreased muscle mass, weight gain, depression, irritability, low libido, erectile dysfunction, night sweats, loss of body hair, and hot flashes.
We test total testosterone levels through a simple blood test. Levels below 300 ng/dL are considered low T. Free and bioavailable testosterone levels provide a clearer picture. Testing should be done in the morning when levels peak.
The most effective options are injections, gels/creams, patches and pellets that deliver bioidentical testosterone directly into the body. Oral forms are generally not recommended. We will help you find the right option.
Most patients report increased energy, improved sexual function, better moods, increased muscle mass and strength, sharper mental focus, healthier body composition, and an enhanced overall quality of life.
Most patients notice some improvements in energy and mood within 1-3 weeks. Maximum benefits are typically achieved after 3 months as optimal levels are reached. Patience and diligence are required.
Potential side effects include acne, oily skin, prostate enlargement, testicular shrinkage, gynecomastia, sleep apnea exacerbation, polycythemia, edema and anxiety. We carefully monitor to avoid risks.
