Testosterone clinic - Balance Hormone Clinic

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is an effective treatment for men with low testosterone levels, also known as hypogonadism or low T. At Balance Hormone Clinic, we specialize in customized testosterone treatments to help men optimize their health, vitality and overall wellbeing.

Signs and Symptoms of Low Testosterone

Some common signs and symptoms of low testosterone include:

• Low sex drive - Decreased libido or erectile dysfunction
• Fatigue - Lack of energy, exhaustion with normal activities
• Depressed mood - Irritability, lack of motivation or enthusiasm
• Loss of muscle mass - Weakness, shrinking muscles over time
• Weight gain - Increase in body fat, especially around the waist
• Hair loss - Thinning hair or receding hairline

If you experience several of these symptoms, you may have low testosterone levels that could benefit from TRT.

Diagnosing Low Testosterone

To diagnose low T, we will order a simple blood test to check your total testosterone, free testosterone and other hormone levels. Many factors can affect results, so more than one early morning test may be needed for accuracy.

Based on your symptoms, medical history and test results, our physicians will determine if TRT is appropriate. We create fully customized treatments since every patient is unique.
