HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR MEN

Testosterone Therapy

Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men

Male hypogonadism or Andropause is a condition in which the body doesn’t produce enough of the hormone testosterone — the hormone that plays a key role in masculine growth and development while Andropause is defined as a collection of symptoms, including fatigue, loss of muscle mass, and a decrease in libido, experienced by men and attributed to a decline in testosterone levels.

“Researchers predict that by 2025 there may be as many as 6.5 million American men between 30 and 79 years of age with symptomatic androgen deficiency, an increase of 38 percent from the year 2000 population estimates.” 

Low Testosterone

The Warning Signs

Are you Experiencing Low Testosterone Symptoms?

Take the ADAM (androgen deficiency in aging male) Questionnaire:

The ADAM (androgen deficiency in aging male) Questionnaire was developed in 2006 by the Society of Urologic Nurses and Associates to assist in the diagnosis of low testosterone.  A diagnosis of low testosterone is suspected if these are “yes” answers to questions 1 and 7 or to any other three questions.  However, the diagnosis of low testosterone is determined by the measurement of testosterone in the body – a simple blood test.  

  1. Do you have a decrease in sex drive?
  2. Do you have a lack of energy?
  3. Do you have a decrease in strength and/or endurance?
  4. Have you lost height?
  5. Have you noticed a decreased enjoyment of life?
  6. Are you sad and/or grumpy?
  7. Are your erections less strong?
  8. Has it been more difficult to maintain your erection throughout intercourse?
  9. Are you falling asleep after dinner?
  10. Has your work performance deteriorated recently?

How Treatment Works

Testosterone Therapy

Health Assessment

During the initial visit, which takes less than an hour, you will complete a comprehensive, men’s health assessment. Blood for labs will be drawn, and take and measure other vitals.

Personalized Plan

On the second visit, you will meet with your medical provider to discuss your lab results, health assessment, and goals to create a personalized treatment plan. This also takes less than an hour.

Treatment Regimen

The treatment regimen is based on your individual needs. Testosterone patients typically return every seven to 14 days for treatment.  Treatment Regimens may adjust as Bloodwork assessments get fine tuned.

Optimization

Once your treatment plan is underway, your medical provider will stay up-to-date on your progress through feedback from you, regular labs, and leading-edge technology that optimizes treatments to maximize your health and wellness.

Benefits of Testosterone Therapy

Testosterone Therapy

Boost Energy & Endurance while Reducing Fatigue

Low testosterone can result in a lack of energy. If you find that you’re feeling sleepy for much of the day, even after you’ve had a good night of rest, there’s a high chance that a hormonal imbalance is to blame. Many patients find that their energy levels soar after they begin testosterone therapy.

Strengthen Bones & Joints

Testosterone plays a huge role in bone mineral density. Bone density decreases as men age and testosterone levels drop. This raises the risk of weak bones and osteoporosis. Strong bones help support your muscles and internal organs, which can boost athletic performance.

Enhance your Sexual Health and Increase Libido

While most men experience a decrease in sex drive as they age, low testosterone causes a steeper drop-off than what is normal for most men.  Low testosterone can cause a variety of health issues (such as hair loss and erectile dysfunction) that may also inhibit sexual desire.

Increase Motivation and Overall Mood

“Low T” or Low testosterone can result in a number of mood changes. Hormonal imbalances are often to blame for depression, anxiety, and other mood issues. Fatigue caused by low testosterone can also add to these issues.  Hormone Replacement therapy at Gurnee Andropause is the solution.

Improve Mental Clarity and the Ability to Focus

Studies have shown that men who take testosterone tend to experience an increase in memory. Testosterone affects many physical processes – focus, clarity, and memory are no exception. Life issues (sex and relationships) caused by low testosterone can also play a role in the struggle to focus.

Healthier Heart & Blood

A healthy heart pumps blood to the rest of the body, providing muscles and organs with the oxygen needed for peak performance. Testosterone helps red blood cell production through the bone marrow. Low testosterone levels are linked to a variety of cardiovascular risks.
