TRT clinic Los Angelas

Overview of Testosterone Replacement Therapy

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is an effective treatment for low testosterone or "low T." TRT can relieve unpleasant low T symptoms and help men regain energy, strength and vitality.

When administered properly, TRT offers a number of potential health benefits for men with low testosterone:

• Increased muscle mass and strength


• Improved mood and cognitive function


• More energy and endurance


• Better sleep


• Increased bone density


• Decreased body fat


• Improved libido and sexual function

However, low testosterone often goes undiagnosed. The symptoms can develop gradually over time. Some of the most common low T signs include:

• Low sex drive and erectile dysfunction


• Depression, irritability and mood changes


• Loss of facial, body and pubic hair


• Reduced muscle mass and strength


• Weight gain and difficulty losing fat


• Fatigue, low motivation and energy

Early diagnosis is key - prolonged hormone deficiency can negatively impact health and quality of life. Blood testing is needed to accurately diagnose the issue.

If low T is detected, TRT can help restore healthy testosterone levels. When properly administered by a qualified medical professional, TRT is considered extremely safe for most men.

Below is an overview of Vitality Wellness Clinic' TRT services for the Los Angelas area.

Diagnosing Low Testosterone

The first step is diagnostic testing to evaluate your hormone levels. Vitality Wellness Clinic conducts advanced testing and analysis of:

• Total testosterone - Measures both free and bound testosterone circulating in the body. Most important marker.


• Free testosterone - The testosterone available to tissues, not bound to proteins. Provides key insights alongside total T.


• Bioavailable testosterone - The total amount available to cells. Better indicator than free T alone.


• SHBG - Binds to hormones. High SHBG reduces free/bioavailable testosterone.


• LH and FSH - Pituitary hormones regulating testosterone. High or low levels can signal dysfunction.


• Estradiol - Form of estrogen. Optimal ratio to testosterone should be maintained.


• DHEA and DHEAS - Testosterone precursors from the adrenals. Low levels cause imbalance.


• PSA - Prostate marker. Levels are monitored to ensure prostate health.


• Complete metabolic panel - Provides insights on cholesterol, liver/kidney function, blood sugar regulation, electrolyte balance and more.

Diagnostic testing provides the data needed to determine if TRT is appropriate. It also enables properly customized therapies.

We emphasize comprehensive diagnostics - taking the time for complete accurate testing, rather than solely relying on symptoms or single lab results.

Starting TRT Therapy

Once low testosterone is diagnosed, we determine an individualized TRT plan - precise form, dosage, frequency. The goal is optimizing testosterone levels based on your body's unique needs.

There are several TRT options we may utilize:

Injections

• Testosterone Cypionate / Testosterone Enanthate - Two standard injectable preparations with similar long-acting effects. Injections 1-2 times per week.


• Testosterone Propionate - Shorter-acting injections, enabling faster adjustments but more frequent dosing (every 2-3 days). May suit those needing tighter control.


• HCG - Stimulates natural production of testosterone. Often included alongside TRT.

Transdermals

• Testosterone Gels - Absorbed through the skin daily, convenient application but potential transfer risk.


• Testosterone Patches - Adhered to skin daily, steady absorption, low transfer risk.

Other Options

• Testosterone Pellets - Long-lasting pellets implanted under the skin every 4-6 months.


• Oral Testosterone Capsules - Uncommon, limited effectiveness.


• Nasal Testosterone Gels - Experimental, awaiting more evidence.

We guide you through each option to determine what best fits your lifestyle and goals.

Your program is fully customized, dialing in the precise preparations, combinations and dosages tailored for you.

What to Expect: Beginning Treatment

TRT programs at Vitality Wellness Clinic begin with an initial consultation.

Our physicians take time for a comprehensive health evaluation, history and goals discussion. They determine what testing you need, then analyze results to confirm diagnosis when labs are complete.

If low testosterone is detected, they educate you on TRT options. Together you decide which approach fits your lifestyle, priorities and objectives best.

You'll leave your first visits with a custom treatment plan tailored specifically for you. After your starting dosage regimen is determined, you begin therapy.

Early monitoring visits occur 1-2 months in. Testing, physician evaluation and program adjustments ensure you rapidly achieve and stabilize at optimal testosterone levels.

Follow up continues every 4-6 months. We monitor labs, symptoms, side effects and outcomes. Your program evolves to keep your TRT on track through the years ahead.
