Testosterone Replacement Therapy is an effective treatment for many symptoms of testosterone deficiency such as weight gain, lack of energy, and low libido.
Women naturally produce testosterone just like men, but at about 1/10th the level. Testosterone plays a huge role in women’s reproductive cycle and health.
Often mistaken as the normal signs of aging, low testosterone levels can cause a variety of symptoms.
Fatigue
Weight Gain
Sleep Disturbances
Difficulty Concentrating
Irritability
Anxiety
Hair Loss
Low Libido
Most of these symptoms arise from hormone imbalances, and while the focus is usually on estrogen or progesterone levels, all three hormones, including testosterone, need to be balanced to feel well.
Reduced Sex Drive
Decreased Muscle Mass
Difficulty Concentrating
Memory Problems
Fatigue
Mood Changes
Increased Body Fat
Sleep Disturbances
Weekly injections are the most effective form of testosterone treatment, and are more beneficial than patches and pellets as they allow for precise dosing.
Testosterone injections are absorbed at a much higher percentage through the muscle than topicals are absorbed through the skin. This means your body can make better use of the medication, and we can work on finding the right dose for the patient. Unfortunately, no method exists to permanently keep levels in an optimum range.
