As men get older, their bodies change, and some of those changes – like feeling tired all the time, losing muscle, or noticing a drop in libido – could be tied to low testosterone. Testosterone therapy can help you feel more like yourself again by restoring balance to your hormones.
Dr. Corey Howard is board-certified in internal medicine and functional medicine. He uses his years of experience to guide you through this process. Learn more about what you can anticipate from testosterone therapy at Howard Health & Wellness in Naples, Florida.
What Happens During Testosterone Therapy?
Testosterone therapy helps men with low testosterone (low T) get back to feeling better by restoring their hormone levels to a healthy balance. At Howard Health & Wellness, we look at your symptoms, lifestyle, and health history to create your plan.
When you start testosterone therapy, here’s what you can expect:
- Consultation and Testing: We’ll begin with a one-on-one consultation where Dr. Howard talks with you about your symptoms and health goals. From there, we’ll do some tests to check your hormone levels and get a clear picture of what’s going on.
- Your Treatment Plan: Once we have your test results, we’ll create a treatment plan. This might include options like injections or pellet therapy to bring your testosterone levels back to where they should be.
- Ongoing Support: We’ll check in regularly throughout your therapy to make sure everything is working the way it should. If any adjustments are needed, we’ll make them to keep you on track.
What Changes Can You Expect?
As testosterone therapy starts working, you might notice improvements in energy, mood, focus, and muscle strength within a few weeks. Other changes, like increased libido or improved body composition, may take a few months.
While many men tolerate therapy well, you may experience mild side effects like acne, fluid retention, or changes in mood, which we can help manage by adjusting your treatment.
Testosterone therapy is typically ongoing, but regular monitoring ensures it’s safe for your long-term health.
