TRT For Men

As men age, their testosterone levels naturally decline, often leading to physical, emotional and sexual changes. For those experiencing symptoms of testosterone deficiency, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) offers a safe and effective solution. At Tucson Wellness MD, we specialize in personalized TRT treatments to restore balance, improve your quality of life and support overall health.

What Is Testosterone Replacement Therapy?

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a medical treatment designed to address testosterone deficiency, a condition that occurs when the body produces inadequate testosterone. This deficiency, commonly caused by male hypogonadism, can result in symptoms such as fatigue, reduced sexual function, loss of muscle mass and low libido.

TRT replenishes testosterone levels through methods such as testosterone injections, topical gels, patches, testosterone implants or even oral testosterone tablets. By restoring healthy testosterone levels, TRT can improve energy, enhance sexual function and support overall vitality.

Who Needs Testosterone Therapy?

TRT is typically recommended for men with low testosterone levels confirmed by blood tests. Candidates may experience:

  • Low libido and hypoactive sexual desire disorder
  • Erectile dysfunction related to testosterone deficiency
  • Fatigue and reduced stamina
  • Loss of muscle mass and bone density
  • Cognitive difficulties and irritability

Conditions like chronic illnesses, testicular damage or pituitary gland disorders can also cause low testosterone. A thorough evaluation is necessary to determine if androgen replacement therapy is right for you.

Benefits of Testosterone Supplementation

  1. Enhanced Sexual Health: TRT helps improve libido and erectile function
  2. Increased Muscle Mass: Testosterone therapy supports muscle growth and strength
  3. Better Bone Density: It reduces the risk of osteoporosis
  4. Improved Mood and Cognitive Function: Patients often report reduced depression and enhanced mental clarity
  5. Higher Energy Levels: Many men experience reduced fatigue and better exercise performance

Types of Testosterone Treatment

  1. Injectable Testosterone: Delivered into your muscles or under the skin, providing a steady release
  2. Testosterone Gel and Patches: Topical options are absorbed through your skin for easy application
  3. Testosterone Implants: Small pellets are inserted under the skin, offering long-term hormone release
  4. Oral Testosterone Tablets: Convenient but less commonly used due to potential side effects
  5. Intranasal Testosterone: Administered via nasal spray for quick absorption
Build body mass

Monitoring and Safety in TRT

At Tucson Wellness MD, we prioritize safety by conducting extensive evaluations before starting TRT. Regular blood tests and monitoring ensure treatment efficacy and minimize risks, including:

  • Prostate Cancer: Monitoring PSA levels and performing regular digital rectal examinations (DRE) to detect any changes in prostate health
  • Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS): Evaluating and managing potential exacerbations of urinary issues
  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Assessing for any worsening of symptoms during treatment
  • Cardiovascular Health: Monitoring for increased risks of heart attack or stroke

Choosing the Right TRT Provider

Many clinics offer quick-fix testosterone treatments without proper evaluations, relying only on total testosterone levels and overlooking important critical factors. At Tucson Wellness MD, we have a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to ensure safe and effective results:

  • Free Testosterone Testing: Measuring the active form of testosterone that directly impacts libido, mood and muscle mass
  • Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP): Assessing the body’s chemical balance and metabolism
  • Complete Blood Count (CBC): Monitoring your blood cell health
  • PSA Testing: Screening for prostate health
  • DHEA Sulfate Levels: Measuring hormones essential for cardiovascular and metabolic health
  • Vitamin D and Estrogen Levels: Ensuring optimal bone and heart health

Our team, led by Dr. Jon Minor MD, specializes in integrative medicine, nutrition and biokinetics to deliver personalized care tailored to your unique  needs.

Potential Risks and Contraindications

While TRT offers significant benefits, it is not suitable for everyone. Men with a history of prostate cancer or uncontrolled BPH may face increased risks. Additionally, those with untreated obstructive sleep apnea or underlying cardiovascular conditions require careful assessment.
