Testosterone is an important hormone that regulates a variety of processes in men. As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline, which can lead to troubling symptoms. Low testosterone, or hypogonadism, refers to testosterone levels below 300 ng/dL.
Low testosterone affects 15-39% of men over the age of 45. The risk increases with age and comorbidities like obesity and diabetes. Thankfully, testosterone levels can be restored to normal through testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).
The symptoms of low testosterone can significantly impair one's quality of life. The most common signs are:
Diagnosing low testosterone requires a simple blood test. Levels vary throughout the day, so tests are usually conducted before 10 AM for accuracy. A level below 300 ng/dL on two separate tests indicates hypogonadism.
Other hormones like estradiol should also be tested to gain a complete picture. Your doctor may also check for related issues such as sleep apnea, pituitary tumors, or testicular injury.
The experienced physicians at New Beginnings HRT Clinic offer cutting-edge testosterone therapies tailored to your unique needs. We create customized treatment plans using the latest medical research and technology.
TRT can transform lives by relieving difficult hypogonadal symptoms. Most men report improved energy, sex drive, body composition, mood, cognition, and quality of life. Recent research even suggests TRT can provide certain cardiovascular benefits in some men.
There are several delivery methods to restore testosterone levels, including:
We offer all of these options and help patients decide what will work best based on convenience, sensitivity, cost, and other personal factors.
We develop comprehensive treatment plans encompassing hormone optimization, nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle changes for optimal health. Our cutting-edge therapies utilize precision testing to determine perfect hormonal balance for each patient. We also provide ongoing monitoring and support.
The process of beginning TRT is straightforward:
Most patients start feeling better within a few weeks as their bodies adjust to normalized testosterone levels.
Certain lifestyle factors can enhance the benefits of TRT while also boosting overall health:
Engaging in regular exercise helps optimize hormones for better body composition and sexual function. We recommend routine strength training and cardio exercise. Popular local fitness centers include:
Following a nutritious anti-inflammatory diet supports healthy testosterone levels. We advise limiting sugar, refined carbs, alcohol, and caffeine while increasing healthy fats, produce, lean protein, and key micronutrients that aid hormone production.
Managing stress through yoga, meditation, journaling, or social connection promotes balanced cortisol levels. High cortisol hampers testosterone production. Local yoga studios like Bliss Yoga offer stress-relieving classes. Spending time outdoors hiking nearby nature trails or Sunken Meadow State Park also helps reduce stress.
Adopting healthy lifestyle habits enhances mood, energy, sexual function, and quality of life. We provide patients with customized nutrition and fitness guidance.
Seeking prompt low testosterone treatment is vital because the symptoms and health risks worsen over time. Research shows low testosterone levels double the risk of mortality over an 18-year period.
Untreated testosterone deficiency also escalates the chance of developing:
Therefore, if you experience potential low testosterone symptoms, schedule testing right away. Rebalancing hormones early provides the best opportunity to regain health and live life to the fullest.
Testosterone therapy has been shown in studies to increase lean muscle mass and decrease body fat percentage in men, which can improve their cardiorespiratory fitness levels substantially. However, the increased hematocrit and potential blood clot risk associated with testosterone therapy may offset these benefits.
