Male Hormone Therapy

You may benefit from testosterone therapy if any of these scenarios apply to you. You don’t need a treasure map to find your endurance, stamina, strength, muscles, and well-being. The only map you need is the one to our office.

Total Care Family Center hormone therapy includes an office visit, a Male Hormone Evaluation questionnaire, recommendations for serum blood testing and a complete evaluation of lab results. Evaluations have a follow-up Office Visit or phone consultation to review test results and the treatment plan. Patients should schedule this after the Male Hormone Evaluation for 2-3 days. Blood testing for men may include testosterone, SHBG, DHEA, PSA, Vitamin D, and Thyroid functions (TSH, T3). Other tests may be ordered as needed.

It is possible to slow down the undesirable aspects, symptoms and diseases associated with aging. Only after a complete physical examination and laboratory evaluation will a personalized hormone supplementation program be prescribed for you and then monitored by our providers until your optimal hormone levels have been achieved.
Testosterone is a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands and testes. It contributes to muscle mass, strength and endurance, decreased fat, increased exercise tolerance, and enhanced well-being and psychological status. Testosterone protects against cardiovascular disease, hypertension, body fat and arthritis. It leads to improved lean muscle mass, increased bone density, decreased cholesterol, improved skin tone, improved healing capacity, and increased libido and sexual performance.

Testosterone is the best hormone to increase collagen and elastin in the skin. It prolongs the quality of life by decreasing the diseases of aging. Testosterone is the second most crucial hormone for energy and well-being.
