If you are considering hormone replacement therapy, be sure to read this blog post first!

Types of Testosterone Replacement Therapy we offer at Enhanced Aesthetics & Wellness:

One of the most popular types of Testosterone Replacement Therapy is weekly intramuscular injections of testosterone cypionate. Testosterone injections may cause pain or bruising at the injection site, and some men may experience mood swings, irritability, and/or increased acne.

Our preferred method of Testosterone Replacement Therapy is testosterone pellets. Testosterone pellets are typically inserted under the skin in the fatty tissue of the buttocks or hip, and they release testosterone slowly over time. Testosterone pellets are a long-acting form of therapy, and they can be an effective way to maintain steady testosterone levels. Pellets are more costly than weekly injections however they are preferred by many men who dislike needles. Another benefit is that they only require insertion every 5-6 months as opposed to weekly shots. Risks are pellet extrusion, infection, and pain at the insertion site in addition to the above-mentioned symptoms of mood swings, irritability, and increased acne.

Benefits of Testosterone Replacement Therapy:

Testosterone Replacement Therapy can have a number of benefits. It can improve mood, energy levels, libido, erectile dysfunction, assist with weight loss, and more. It can also help increase muscle mass and strength, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and making workouts more effective.

If you are considering hormone replacement therapy, it is important to weigh the risks and benefits before making a decision. Hormone replacement therapy can be an effective treatment for some men, but it is not suitable for everyone. Be sure to talk to your provider about whether hormone replacement is right for you.

Your provider will routinely monitor testosterone levels, PSA (prostate-specific antigen), and your hemoglobin and hematocrit (CBC), as Testosterone Replacement Therapy can affect these values and may require further evaluation and treatment.
