Who Needs Testosterone Replacement Therapy?
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is typically recommended for men who have been diagnosed with low testosterone levels (hypogonadism) and are experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, mood changes, and loss of muscle mass. Low testosterone levels can be confirmed through blood tests, and the decision to start TRT is based on both lab results and the presence of symptoms.
TRT may also be considered for men with other medical conditions that cause testosterone deficiency, such as certain genetic disorders, pituitary gland disorders, or damage to the testes. It’s important for men considering TRT to undergo a thorough evaluation by a healthcare provider to determine if they are good candidates for the therapy.
