A Guide on How to Discuss Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men

As men age, it’s natural for changes to occur in our bodies. While you may be more prone to noticing the changes occuring on the outside, many factors within your body are also having significant effects on your overall health.

Part of healthy aging revolves around hormone production. It’s normal for our hormone levels to fluctuate, but aging typically brings a decrease in hormone levels. As your hormone levels decline, you can experience symptoms such as decreased libido, depression, loss of energy, fatigue, joint pain, and insomnia.

Typically thought to only be a change women go through, men are also victims to hormone decline. Whether you’re personally experiencing testosterone level fluctuation or know someone who is, Azia Med Spa’s hormone replacement therapy can help. Let’s take a look at how hormone replacement therapy can kick start your libido and increase your energy levels—helping you feel years younger.

What is Testosterone?

Testosterone is a natural hormone that can be found in both men and women. In men, the production of testosterone starts to increase significantly during puberty and begins to decrease after the age of 30.

Testosterone in men is required for:

Male sexual development
Reproductive function
Building muscle bulk
Maintaining healthy levels of red blood cells
Maintaining bone density

Low testosterone levels are not detrimental but can play a significant role in your everyday mood and activity. For example, having low T levels causes you to have less energy, gain weight, produce less body hair, bones to thin, and more.

How Does Hormone Replacement Therapy Work?

When other conventional testosterone treatments have failed, give hormone replacement therapy a try. At Azia Med Spa, we offer BioTE hormone replacement therapy in the form of subcutaneous pellets. The pellets are inserted under the skin where they release supplemental hormones over time to balance out the natural hormone production. This particular therapy is all-natural and doesn’t use any synthetic or artificial fillers.

Is This Right for Me?

Before scheduling your appointment, it’s important to speak with your doctor about your symptoms. Here they will determine if you’re suffering from unnaturally low levels of testosterone and discuss how hormone replacement therapy will benefit you.

The Benefits

Hormone replacement therapy is beneficial for all who suffer from significantly low levels of testosterone. Within a week of your treatment, you’ll begin to notice an increase in your blood testosterone levels and within four to six weeks notice several other positive changes. These changes can include:

Increase in lean body mass
Improvement in mental clarity
Boost of energy
Elevated libido
Increase in bone density
