Have you considered Testosterone Replacement Therapy to help you feel the vigor of youth again? If so, it is important to understand the benefits and risks of treatment before you make your decision.
If you are a man over 35, it is likely that you know that the natural production of vital hormones such as testosterone begins to decline once you reach the age of 30.
When you reach this age, the lack of a hormonal balance in the body can lead to decreased sexual function, lethargy, increased body fat storage, and more.
While there are proven benefits to engaging in testosterone replacement therapy for men, it is vital to undertake the correct procedures with a trusted professional.
This delicate process requires a personalized dosage of hormones and other substances that help to ensure your body maintains hormonal balance.
In order to better understand why testosterone therapy is so beneficial, we must first understand how testosterone works:
What is Testosterone?
Testosterone is widely understood to be the main male hormone that results in the secondary sex characteristics a man possesses. Testosterone also plays an important role in women’s sexual health and libido as well. Testosterone helps to maintain:
- Bone density
- Muscle strength and mass
- Facial and body hair growth
- Red blood cell production
- Fat distribution
- Sex drive
- Sperm production
When men reach the age of 30, testosterone levels peak and begin a steady decline with every passing year – normally at a rate of 1% a year. While this does occur naturally, it is important to ask your doctor to check for hypogonadism, a condition that results in an impaired ability to produce testosterone.
Whether natural or as a result of hypogonadism, these decreases in testosterone result in:
- Reduced libido
- Erectile dysfunction
- Infertility
- Changes to sleep patterns
- Decrease in motivation and self-confidence
- Increased body fat
- Decreased muscle mass
With all of these debilitating symptoms that can result from low testosterone levels, how can you prevent this from happening to you?
Here are 3 reasons TRT may be right for you
-
Testosterone Replacement Therapy Can Improve Your Energy
Multiple studies have shown that TRT can help to increase your body’s ability to produce energy and maintain a well-functioning metabolism.
When testosterone levels begin to decline, this can cause a decrease in energy output as a result of slowed muscle metabolism – a critical process in young and healthy men.
When muscle mass begins to decrease, the body’s overall energy metabolism is thrown off – as it has always had to maintain muscle, which requires more energy to do.
-
Testosterone Replacement Therapy Can Improve Your Mood
If aging has you feeling depressed or less motivated to do the things you normally love to do, this could be a product of decreased testosterone production.
Without testosterone, blood sugar levels can become lower, a process that can affect the brain’s chemistry and alter the function of multiple neurotransmitters responsible for a balanced mood.
Serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin are examples of mood-stabilizing neurotransmitters that can be affected by low testosterone.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy for Men & Women Is Safe
When guided by a trusted and experienced physician, undergoing TRT can help bring vitality, strength, increased muscle mass, and improved sexual function to any middle aged man worried about declining hormone production.
It is important to understand what your doctor can offer you, as improper treatment could lead to more harm than good.
