Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) in Denver, CO.
What is Testosterone?
Testosterone is the main sex hormone that aids in the development and health of the male sexual reproductive system. In addition to aiding in the functions of the testes and prostate, testosterone helps give men their secondary sex characteristics, such as strong muscle mass, body hair, and bone mass.
What is TRT?
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is a therapeutic solution that aims to treat low testosterone, usually in men. With this treatment, a medical professional provides an individual with testosterone-replacing medication which can come in a variety of mediums (injections, patches, gels, pills, and even pellets that can be placed under the skin).
Naturally enhancing testosterone levels that have decreased due to age or illness can greatly improve a man’s quality of life, energy levels, and sex drive.
Symptoms of Low Testosterone
While a simple blood test can determine whether an individual has low testosterone levels, many medical professionals look for additional indications that can help them discover whether a patient is experiencing complications related to decreased testosterone.
While middle-aged and senior men are at a greater risk of having their testosterone levels decrease, experiencing the following symptoms also suggest an issue with testosterone production.
Decreased muscle tone
Low motivation
Negative sexual changes, such as decreased sexual desire, difficulty maintaining an erection, or low sexual stamina
