One of our most popular services for male patients over 30 is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). As men age, testosterone production begins to decline about 1% per year after hitting peak levels around age 25. Low testosterone, called “Low T,” leads to unpleasant symptoms including:
Testosterone therapy involves restoring testosterone levels through gels, injections, implants or other delivery methods prescribed by a medical professional. This helps alleviate Low T issues so patients feel more energetic, mentally sharp and sexually vibrant.
Testosterone therapy produces life-changing improvements in many areas:
- Increased muscle mass and strength - Reduced body fat - Improved energy levels - Stronger heart, lungs and bones - Better blood sugar regulation
- Heightened sex drive and performance - Improved mood – less depression/irritability - Increased motivation and confidence - Better cognitive function and focus - Reduced anxiety/stress response
- Healthier aging process - Better quality of life - Improved outlook and enjoyment of activities - Renewed sense of vitality
The experienced medical team at HormoVital specializes in TRT protocols tailored to each patient’s unique health profile and needs. We provide industry-leading treatment guided by the latest research and years of hands-on expertise.
Many men try failing to correct Low T problems themselves through improved diet/exercise, herbal supplements or other methods before turning to TRT. Our patients frequently express amazement that such an effective solution was available all along. We hear stories like:
“I haven’t felt this great in 20 years! I have so much energy now and lost 25 pounds without even dieting. Even my wife says our relationship has improved thanks to my treatment.”
Proper testosterone therapy delivers life-changing results when applied correctly under medical supervision. HormoVital has extensive experience administering TRT to outstanding patient success.
The first step is diagnosis through comprehensive lab testing and medical evaluation by our experienced hormone doctors. We order our own sensitive testosterone blood panels in-house for convenience.
Based on results and exam findings, we determine if TRT is appropriate or if alternative therapies better match underlying issues.
Vitamin D, thyroid, nutrition and other factors substantially impact testosterone levels and how patients feel overall. We carefully evaluate all aspects using an integrative, functional medicine approach to create fully personalized plans.
For men cleared to begin TRT, we provide everything required including testosterone preparations, syringes, supplies and detailed instructions ensuring proper self-administration. Follow-up bloodwork and physician visits optimize dosing for maximum patient benefit while minimizing risk.
While most anti-aging treatments aim to reduce wrinkles and restore a more youthful appearance, one surprising effect of certain treatments like laser resurfacing is that they can also rejuvenate hair follicles, leading to the regrowth of grey or thinning hair with natural color and thickness.
We mainly utilize testosterone injections, testosterone gels like Androgel, and testosterone pellets like Testopel. Occasionally we prescribe testosterone patches, oral capsules or specialty creams depending on patient needs:
Testosterone injections involve intramuscular shots self-administered 1-2 times weekly based on formulation. This provides testosterone directly with immediate absorption. Injections allow precise control over dosing. We teach you injection locations/techniques and provide needle supplies.
Testosterone gels like Androgel, Testim and Axiron are applied to the skin daily. Gels provide steady testosterone absorption mimicking natural production. Apply them per manufacturer instructions.
Testosterone pellets are bio-identical hormone preparations concentrated into tiny inserts placed under the skin. They dissolve slowly providing steady testosterone release for 4-6 months before requiring replacement. We perform pellet implants in-office as a quick, relatively painless procedure.
Testosterone patches, creams and capsules are less commonly recommended but useful for certain patients. Examples are Axiron topical solution or Androderm patches applied daily, along with oral capsules like methyltestosterone. We determine appropriateness on an individual basis.
As New York residents understand, Binghamton weather varies widely across seasons impacting mood, health and hormone levels. Many visitors comment that our area seems like four distinct mini-climates each year.
Spring sees temperatures bouncing all around as winter cold snaps give way to stretches of warmth and sunshine. Increased outdoor exposure helps vitamin D absorption crucial for testosterone production.
By summer weather stabilizes with highs averaging near 80°F during very sunny, long days. High vitamin D levels boost energy and vitality. This feels like the optimal time for TRT and related wellness activities.
Come fall, dropping temps and less sun exposure can negatively impact mood and hormones like testosterone for some. Shorter daylight triggers seasonal affective disorder (SAD) in prone individuals. We watch patients carefully during this transition and adjust protocols as needed.
The winter cold also decreases testosterone while increasing cortisol and inflammatory signals. We ensure your treatments combat the weather-induced drain many experience. Therapeutic hibernation through the winter crunch helps recharge your system for spring.
Year-round wellness optimization is our specialty during all of Binghamton’s unique seasons. We alter TRT therapy timing and other protocols matching shifting environmental conditions and your personal needs.
