Enhance Men's Health with Expert One-On-One Medical Care
Testosterone is the primary male hormone and is made mostly by the testicles. It plays several important roles in life including increasing muscle mass and strength, enhancing sex drive, maintaining sperm production, improving bone density and producing new red blood cells.
Low levels of testosterone can cause a loss of sexual drive, reduced bone and muscle mass, mood disorders, and may exacerbate symptoms of erectile dysfunction
It is normal for testosterone levels to decrease with age, but low testosterone (Low T) can cause bothersome symptoms that can be treated.
Low testosterone is diagnosed by a combination of bloodwork that shows a low testosterone level along with at least one of the following symptoms:
- Low or decreased sex drive (libido)
- Decreased energy
- Decreased physical strength
- Decreased lean muscle mass
- Male infertility
- Depression or mood disturbance
- Poor memory
- Difficulty concentrating
- Hot flashes
- Erectile dysfunction (ED)
Symptoms of Low T
Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
There is a link between low T and ED.
Low T affects 2 to 4 million men in the U.S., or 60% of men over age 65. And the incidence increases as we age. This may affect a man’s erectile function.
Diagnosis
Low testosterone is diagnosed by a healthcare provider through a combination of history and physical examination along with laboratory testing including the testosterone level.
Feel like having trouble functioning normally, as your daily life may be affected by weight gain or mood changes? It might be because your hormones are out of whack.
Book an appointment with us to test if you have testosterone deficiency.
Adult Immunization Requirements
There are a number of different treatment options that may be appropriate for use depending on each individual man’s symptoms and testosterone levels. Treatment options may include:
- Topical testosterone therapy
- Oral testosterone therapy
- Intranasal testosterone therapy
- Testosterone injections
Regular follow-up visits are necessary to evaluate a man’s response to testosterone therapy and to check routine testosterone related blood tests.
