Introduction to Testosterone Replacement Therapy

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), also known as male testosterone treatment, has become an increasingly popular option for men experiencing low testosterone symptoms. As leaders in the men's health field, Renew Wellness Clinic offers cutting-edge TRT in Clovis to help men regain their vitality.

When testosterone levels drop in men, it can negatively impact energy, sex drive, muscle mass, fat distribution, mood, mental clarity, sleep quality, and more. By restoring testosterone to healthy levels, men can reverse these issues and improve their quality of life. Our experienced medical team specializes in testosterone treatment tailored to each patient's unique needs.

Signs and Symptoms of Low Testosterone

Many men mistakenly chalk up symptoms of low testosterone to normal aging. However, low testosterone should not be ignored or go untreated. Here are some of the most common signs indicating deficiency:

  • Fatigue and low energy
  • Decreased muscle mass and strength
  • Weight gain, increased body fat, difficulty losing weight
  • Low libido and erectile dysfunction
  • Decline in athletic performance
  • Loss of body and facial hair
  • Depression, irritability, and mood changes
  • Poor concentration, memory issues ("brain fog")
  • Sleep disturbances, insomnia
  • Hot flashes, sweats

Diagnosing Low Testosterone

Determining if a man has clinically low testosterone involves blood testing to check his current hormone levels. This should be done first thing in the morning when levels are highest.

Our medical team will check total testosterone along with free testosterone - the testosterone available for the body to use. They may also test estradiol, luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, and other hormones for comparison.

Results will be analyzed along with the patient's health history, risk factors, genetics, symptoms, and lifestyle factors. While "normal" lab reference ranges exist, optimal testosterone levels are higher for most men. Goal levels after beginning treatment will be tailored accordingly.

If blood tests and evaluation show a man's low testosterone is due to secondary hypogonadism (problem with testes/pituitary gland), further testing may be needed to discover the underlying cause. Our doctors can provide complete care including referrals to specialists.

Benefits of Testosterone Replacement Therapy

Once low testosterone is diagnosed, TRT serves to restore levels to a healthy, youthful range. When used properly, testosterone treatment is extremely effective for alleviating low testosterone symptoms and improving one's state of being.

Benefits experienced by most men undergoing TRT include:

  • Regained energy and stamina
  • Increased muscle mass and strength
  • Enhanced sex drive, function, and performance
  • Better moods - decreased irritability and depression
  • Clearer thinking and concentration
  • More motivation and productivity
  • Deeper, more restful sleep
  • Healthier body composition - decreased fat, increased muscle
  • Improved self-confidence and vitality

These changes translate to better performance in the gym, workplace, and bedroom - allowing men to thrive and feel like themselves again. Lifelong treatment is often necessary to sustain results.

Renew Wellness Clinic TRT Protocol Basics

There are several methods available for testosterone delivery - injections, gels/creams, pellets, patches, and more. Our clinic offers all modern options to best fit each patient. The goal is mimicking the body's natural testosterone production for steady, sustainable levels.

Most men start with testosterone injections, as they are lower cost and effectively boost testosterone levels. Injections involve administering testosterone depot (cypionate/enanthate typically) every 7-14 days to maintain stability.

Once dialed in, patients can self-administer injections at home for convenience following proper instruction. Dosage adjustments occur via blood tests every 3 months initially.

Other options like testosterone gels/creams can provide more flexibility but less dramatic results. These daily topicals bump levels moderately without spikes and drops. Transdermal patches are also available but less popular.

Long-acting testosterone pellets are the most convenient, only needing replacement every ~6 months with steady delivery. However, they involve a minor surgical procedure for placement and removal. Renew Wellness Clinic offers all methods to suit patient needs.

Importance of Beginning Treatment

Many men with low testosterone hesitate starting TRT due to misconceptions, fears over side effects, or costs. However, allowing deficiency to persist untreated can set off cascading health declines with risks outweighing benefits of therapy.

Studies correlate low testosterone with higher all-cause mortality rates in men - it literally cuts lives short. Additionally, untreated deficiency promotes:

  • Metabolic disease: diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis
  • Cardiovascular issues: heart attack, stroke
  • Neurodegenerative diseases: Alzheimer's, dementia
  • Osteoporosis and fracture risk

Furthermore, deficiency erodes quality of life today resulting in declining performance, strained relationships, and loss of joy from life's pleasures. By restoring healthy testosterone levels, these ominous impacts can be prevented through proper medical care.
