Yes, we do offer HCG. Human Chorionic Gonadatropin (HCG) is very important to take during a Testosterone program and especially in coming off. There was a reclassification of the product to a biologic drug so a lot of people were unable to get it as not many compounding pharmacies have the biologic license to compound it. Because of this we use brand name only which will be Pregnyl (HCG).
You’ll notice improvements in well-being, mood, energy, and libido within the first 2 weeks of starting TRT. Anabolic benefits like increased strength and muscle mass typically appear after 4 weeks. Stick to your treatment plan and attend regular consultations for the best results.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) involves supplementing or replacing testosterone in individuals with low levels. It can enhance mood, drive, libido, strength, body composition, sleep, and recovery.
Common symptoms include fatigue, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, mood swings, reduced muscle mass, increased body fat, and diminished cognitive function.
Low testosterone can be caused by aging, certain medical conditions, hormonal disorders, obesity, stress, or medication side effects.
TRT can lead to increased muscle mass and strength when combined with regular exercise and a proper diet.
TRT may reduce sperm production and fertility. If preserving fertility is a concern, alternative treatments or strategies can be discussed with our healthcare providers to ensure the best approach for your needs.
TRT is primarily used to treat low testosterone in men. However, it may also be prescribed to women as well. Women usually do a bio identical testosterone cream daily. Women report having way more libido, strength, drive for life, recovery and it really tones them up. The idea is to replenish what you once had in your reproductive years, your prime.
For most of our patients TRT is a lifestyle and taken year around without coming off. Studies show that optimal testosterone levels are healthier compared to lower levels. If you do not abuse testosterone you can do it long term without cycling on and off and stay healthy as can be. However, the duration of therapy depends on individual needs, goals, and the underlying cause of low testosterone. Some men who may be younger , in their 30's or 40's may want to still have babies. In these cases we'll cycle on & off with them to preserve their natural sperm production.
TRT may help alleviate symptoms of depression in individuals with low testosterone. Testosterone has been shown in studies to improve mood, sense of well being, dopamine and Testosterone also lowers the stress hormone cortisol. Most patients report things don't bother them as much on TRT and they have a much better attitude and zest for life. However, it is crucial to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.
Boost your testosterone naturally by exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet, managing stress, and getting enough sleep. However, some individuals may still need TRT for optimal results.
Currently, our treatments aren’t covered by insurance as they’re considered elective. Many patients find insurance-covered TRT through primary physicians to be inadequate. However, you can still use our services to enhance your overall HRT benefits.
