The most effective delivery method for Testosterone Replacement Therapy (or “TRT”) is Testosterone injections. Testosterone Replacement Therapy typically requires weekly Testosterone injections and ancillary medications, where necessary. These may include medications which allow the testes to continue its’ natural production of testosterone while on TRT, and an Aromatase Inhibitor, typically in pill form, to suppress the body’s conversion of Testosterone to Estrogen.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy
Every man has his own unique set of circumstances and must be treated as an individual. Therefore, Ehormones MD managed physicians perform physical examinations on every patient, in addition to using a combination of comprehensive, diagnostic lab work, feedback from the patient himself, as well as medical history and symptomology to determine the patient’s individual Testosterone Therapy regimen. However, it is important to note that not every adult male will be a candidate for Testosterone Replacement Therapy. This is why it’s very important that you speak with a doctor who specializes in treating Low Testosterone in adult men.

What is Low T?
Low T is short for low testosterone – a condition that affects most men as they age. Testosterone levels typically decline after the age of 30 and become more prevalent and symptomatic in men 40 and over. Low T causes older men to lose muscle, energy and motivation. It can affect a person’s mood, making them irritable and more prone to depression – often call “grumpy old man syndrome”. Low T is also a leading cause of sexual dysfunction in aging men, including a drop in libido and ability to get and maintain erections. Men also lose HGH, Human Growth Hormone, as they age and this to can be treated if necessary with Testosterone Replacement Therapy (or “TRT”).
What Are the Benefits of Testosterone Replacement Therapy?
Testosterone Replacement Therapy for men is becoming more and more common as men are increasingly aware of the potential benefits. Testosterone Replacement Therapy can help men improve their mental clarity and focus. Additional benefits include increased muscle mass, libido, and motivation, while decreasing central body fat. Symptoms of low testosterone and/or low HGH levels are common among men over the age of 30. EHormonesMD will develop an individualized and comprehensive treatment protocol to help you achieve the maximum benefits of Testosterone Replacement Therapy.
Increased Sex Drive
For men with decreased libido or those who have problems with erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence, Testosterone Replacement Therapy can be significantly beneficial. While many men as young as 30 require Testosterone Replacement Therapy to restore Testosterone levels, HRT is particularly beneficial for men over the age of 40, when testosterone levels may have reached a significant decline. Your EHormonesMD doctor will be able to determine whether Testosterone Replacement Therapy can help you fight the issues of waning libido and/or erectile dysfunction, and remove the need for ED medications.
Increase Muscle – Decrease Fat
Low levels of testosterone can lead to decrease in muscle mass, an increase in body fat and result in a decrease of bone mass over time. Several men experience the inability to achieve results from their work outs, which is usually a direct result of having low testosterone levels. Testosterone Replacement can help to counteract these physical changes and, in fact, clinical studies have shown that Men can see a 10% to 15% increase in muscle mass and protein synthesis in as little as 2 to 3 months. While many physical changes are normal for men as they age, testosterone treatment can offer significant benefits for men when combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise routine.
In fact, a recent study showed that “testosterone treatment can decrease fat mass and increase muscle size and strength. Some men reported a change in lean body mass but no increase in strength. It’s likely you’ll see the most benefits when you combine testosterone therapy with strength training and exercise.”
Improve Your Mood
While it might not sound obvious at first, Testosterone Replacement Therapy for men can actually help with some emotional problems that men experience as they age. Low Testosterone levels have shown to reduce self-confidence and motivation, which can have a negative impact on personal relationships and work results. Feelings of sadness and depression, as well as the inability to concentrate on important tasks or remember important pieces of information are also common with decreased testosterone levels.
Testosterone Therapy to Increase Sex Drive and Function
Testosterone is a hormone present in both men and women, which has a significant impact on sexual drive and performance, particularly attraction and arousal. Low testosterone can reduce your ability to have satisfying sex, decrease sexual desire and is a major cause of erectile dysfunction. Many men who take ED medications would probably not need to if they boosted their testosterone levels. In conjunction with boosted libido, testosterone also increases physical ability, muscle tone and it improves mood and stamina – all good things when you are talking about sex!
According to Abraham Morgentaler, M.D.in Havard Health Publishing , “The primary hallmark of low testosterone is low sexual desire or libido, but another can be erectile dysfunction, and any man who complains of erectile dysfunction should get his testosterone level checked. Men may experience other symptoms, such as more difficulty achieving an orgasm, less-intense orgasms, a smaller amount of fluid from ejaculation, and a feeling of numbness in the penis when they see or experience something that would normally be arousing.”
What Causes Low Sex Drive?
One of the most common causes of decreased sex drive and sexual function is low testosterone.
Symptoms include:
- Decreased libido
- Lower sexual function and ED
- Decreased desire
- Lack of energy
- Lack of enthusiasm

Why do men need testosterone?
Testosterone serves many purposes in the body, chief among those it’s ability to transition a boy into a man. In children, testosterone is responsible for developing the male sex organs. Testosterone is quite literally what makes a man a man. While women have testosterone in their bodies, too, testosterone is perhaps most known as the male sex hormone. In addition to regulating sex drive and sexual function, it also plays an important role in the development of muscles and the regulation of body fat.
What does low testosterone do to a man?
Without testosterone, a boy could not experience puberty. A man wouldn’t develop his distinctly male pitch. A growing number of experts in the medical community assert that low testosterone can be severely detrimental to a man’s physical health. In fact, low testosterone can lead to weak bones, which can result in osteoporosis. Low Testosterone can also lead to low muscle mass and increased body fat. In fact, a man who is depleted of testosterone will often experience mild to severe depression. As you can see, testosterone is one of the most crucial hormones in the body.
What are the benefits of testosterone replacement therapy?
The benefits of testosterone replacement therapy are innumerable. A man with low testosterone who makes the decision to start testosterone replacement therapy can expect improvements in energy levels, exercise capacity, sleep quality, mood and sex drive within just one month of starting a regimen. A clean diet and regimented exercise routine is highly recommended to achieve the full benefits of a testosterone replacement therapy program. Several months into a testosterone therapy regimen, a man can expect to see modest improvements in his physique, including improvements in muscle mass and decreases in body fat.
According to a recent study, “a meta-analysis has reported the positive impact of TT on insulin resistance and glycaemic control plus reduced visceral adiposity, lean muscle mass, sexual desire and erectile function”
What kind of doctor prescribes testosterone
Therefore, it cannot be stressed enough the importance of taking testosterone only under a doctor’s supervision. It is not uncommon for people to acquire testosterone on the black market and self-prescribe, but this is a recipe for disaster. Testosterone can cause increases in the size of red blood cells. If these blood cells expand too much, they can cause blood clots, potentially leading to stroke. Ehormones MD physicians constantly monitor their patients’ blood levels to make sure all levels stay in normal, healthy ranges. Blood diagnostics as well as constant supervision by a medical doctor are a must while on testosterone replacement therapy. It is, however, important to note that due to the growing popularity of testosterone replacement therapy and a heavy dose of marketing by Big Pharma, every doctor and his brother are now prescribing testosterone to their patients. This is actually quite dangerous, as the majority of doctors prescribing testosterone really are not well versed in the intricacies of testosterone dosing, modulation and the risks associated with incorrectly prescribing testosterone.
What are the risks of testosterone replacement therapy?
Testosterone replacement therapy, if prescribed incorrectly, can pose a number of risks for the patient. Ehormones MD Medical Director, Dr. Frank J. Welch, MD, is a testosterone therapy veteran. His interest in male testosterone replacement therapy actually began in the early 2000s when he became a testosterone therapy patient. Having experienced life changing results on testosterone replacement, himself, Dr. Welch decided that he would make it his life’s work to help change his patient’s lives with the benefits of testosterone replacement therapy. Dr. Welch would be the first person to say, however, that testosterone is not something you want to mess around with. The average family physician or urologist prescribing testosterone doesn’t take the time to research the half-lives of the testosterone he or she is prescribing. Half-life is essentially what determines how often a patient should be injecting testosterone. For instance, testosterone cypionate has a half-life of roughly 6 days. This means that half of the testosterone has run its course and left the body after just one week. For this reason, Dr. Welch generally recommends that testosterone be taken once to twice weekly. On a daily basis, we hear from prospective Ehormones MD patients who were treated by their doctor with a testosterone injection every 2 weeks, sometimes 3 weeks and even just once per month. This is just absurd, considering the half-life of testosterone cypionate.
Some studies show “that men with heart disease who underwent testosterone therapy saw only slight improvements. Some were able to increase their walking distance by 33 percent. Another study found that hormone therapy only widened healthy arteries but had no effect on angina pain.”
Can testosterone be taken alone?
Additionally, while taking testosterone, there are a couple of necessary ancillary medications that must be taken in conjunction with testosterone. When exogenous testosterone enters the body, the pituitary gland stops producing luteinizing hormone, also known as LH. This can present a problem if not addressed properly by a doctor who is well versed in testosterone replacement therapy. You see, luteinizing hormones acts as a signal to the testicles to produce testosterone. If this is not addressed, the testes can atrophy, or shrink. For this reason, for many patients, it is necessary to prescribe Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, more commonly known by its initials, HCG, while the patient is taking Testosterone, as HCG mimics the effects of luteinizing hormone, thus suppressing atrophy of the testes. There is also one more important medication that is commonly prescribed along with the Testosterone and HCG. This medication is known as an aromatase inhibitor, or AI. The AI acts to suppress estrogen conversion that can occur while taking Testosterone. We all need a little bit of estrogen in our bodies, but too much can result in an increase in breast tissue growth. As you can see, testosterone replacement therapy is not to be taken lightly. It requires a significant depth of knowledge for a doctor to prescribe testosterone replacement therapy both safely and responsibly.
