Testosterone Replacement

Testosterone Replacement

Low testosterone, or hypogonadism, can stem from various factors, including aging, certain medical conditions, and lifestyle choices. Aging is a common cause, as testosterone levels naturally decline with age, particularly after reaching middle age. Other potential causes include chronic illnesses like diabetes or obesity, hormonal disorders, testicular injury, chemotherapy, and certain medications.

Symptoms of low testosterone can manifest differently among individuals but may include:

  • Reduced libido and sexual dysfunction
  • Fatigue and decreased energy levels
  • Decreased muscle mass and strength
  • Increased body fat, particularly around the abdomen
  • Mood changes, such as depression or irritability
  • Decreased bone density and increased risk of fractures
  • Cognitive changes, including difficulty concentrating or memory problems

 

However, there is a solution to this problem, which is known as the Testosterone Replacement Therapy that we do at Total Vitality. The Benefits of Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) include:

  • Improved libido and sexual function
  • Increased energy levels and overall vitality
  • Enhanced mood and sense of well-being
  • Increased muscle mass and strength
  • Reduction in body fat, particularly around the abdomen
  • Improved bone density and reduced risk of fractures
  • Enhanced cognitive function, including better memory and concentration

 

Alongside the benefits, we also talk about the side effects and risks of Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT), so our patients are not kept in the dark. The side effects and risks of Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) are:

  • Acne or oily skin
  • Fluid retention
  • Increased risk of developing blood clots
  • Breast enlargement (gynecomastia)
  • Decreased sperm production and fertility
  • Worsening of sleep apnea
  • Elevated red blood cell count
  • Mood swings or irritability
  • Long-term use of TRT may carry risks such as cardiovascular issues or prostate enlargement.
