Frequently Asked Questions
What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)?
TRT is a medical treatment that restores healthy testosterone levels in men with low T. It helps improve energy, mood, libido, muscle mass, mental clarity, and overall quality of life.
How do I know if I have low testosterone?
Common symptoms include:
- Fatigue or low energy
- Decreased sex drive or performance issues
- Mood changes, irritability, or depression
- Loss of muscle mass or increased body fat
- Trouble concentrating or “brain fog”
The only way to know for sure is through a blood test, which we provide as part of your initial evaluation.
What causes low testosterone?
Testosterone naturally declines with age, starting as early as your 30s. Other causes include:
- Chronic stress
- Poor sleep
- Obesity or poor diet
- Medical conditions (e.g., diabetes, thyroid issues)
- Certain medications
- Injury or trauma to the testes
Is TRT safe?
Yes, when properly prescribed and monitored by experienced professionals, TRT is generally safe and effective. We regularly monitor your hormone levels, blood pressure, red blood cell count, and more to ensure your treatment stays safe and optimized.
What types of TRT are available?
We offer several options, including:
- Injections (weekly or bi-weekly)
- Topical gels or creams (daily application)
- Pellet implants (inserted every few months) – coming soon
We’ll help you choose the best option for your lifestyle and goals.
How soon will I feel the results?
Many men notice increased energy, mood, and libido within 2–4 weeks. Physical changes like muscle gain and fat loss typically occur over several months. Everyone responds a little differently, and we’ll track your progress along the way.
Is TRT a lifelong treatment?
It can depend on your individual hormone levels and goals. Some men use TRT long-term for optimal health, while others may cycle off after achieving balance. We’ll guide you based on your progress and lab results.
Will TRT affect fertility?
Yes—TRT can reduce sperm production while you’re on treatment. If you’re planning to have children soon, talk to us about fertility-preserving options or other alternatives.
Do I need to stop TRT if I feel better?
Feeling better is a great sign! But stopping TRT suddenly can lead to a return of symptoms. If you ever want to pause or stop treatment, we’ll help you do it safely with a tapering plan or alternative support.
Will my insurance cover TRT?
Unfortunately, we do not accept insurance. Our clinic operates on a cash-pay basis only.
How do I get started?
Simple! Just book a consultation, either in person or virtually. We’ll discuss your symptoms, run labs, and help you decide if TRT is the right path for you.
