Low testosterone, also known as low T or hypotestosteronemia, is a condition where the body does not produce enough of the hormone testosterone. As men age, it becomes increasingly common to experience the symptoms of low T, such as:
Reduced sex drive and erectile dysfunction
Decreased energy and increased fatigue
Loss of muscle mass and strength
Increased body fat and difficulty losing weight
Mood changes like irritability or depression
If these symptoms sound familiar, getting tested for low T is highly recommended. Ignoring them will only make the symptoms worse over time.
The good news is that low testosterone is highly treatable through testosterone therapy, which can help restore normal hormone levels. The experienced physicians at Balance Hormone Clinic use cutting-edge diagnostic testing and proven treatment protocols to help patients optimize their testosterone levels.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) offers many evidence-based benefits when properly prescribed and monitored by a knowledgeable clinician. Patients undergoing TRT at our clinic typically enjoy improvements such as:
Testosterone is essential for building muscle. With optimized testosterone levels, patients find it easier to gain strength and muscle tone. This also helps increase metabolism.
In addition to building muscle, testosterone helps stimulate fat burning. Patients in our TRT program often lose significant abdominal and visceral fat.
One of the most common effects of low T is reduced libido. Through TRT, most patients experience restored sexual desire and stamina.
By regulating important brain and metabolic functions, balanced testosterone levels help fight fatigue while also improving mental clarity, motivation, and confidence.
Studies show testosterone therapy can help reduce risk factors for diabetes, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease. TRT patients often see improvements in key health markers like cholesterol, blood pressure, and bone mineral density.
The first step is to schedule a comprehensive evaluation and blood screening. We will test your total and free testosterone, estradiol, red blood cell count, prostate health, cholesterol levels, vitamin D, and other important biomarkers.
If you are diagnosed with low T, our physicians will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan involving testosterone injections, gels, pellets, or other proven therapies. We carefully monitor your progress through follow-up blood tests and clinic visits to ensure your protocol is working and your dose is optimized.
Consistency is key — the benefits of testosterone replacement therapy increase over time with an established regimen. We make the process as convenient and budget-friendly as possible.
To maximize your results from TRT, we also provide customized nutrition, exercise and stress management counselling. Small improvements to your diet, activity levels, sleep habits and mental health can significantly amplify the benefits of hormone therapy. We have partnerships with several excellent local personal trainers, nutritionists and relaxation specialists who offer discounts to our patients.
Combining the proven protocols of testosterone replacement with targeted lifestyle changes provides our patients the best chance of looking, feeling and performing at their peak for years to come. Contact Balance Hormone Clinic today to schedule your evaluation.
