Low testosterone, also called hypogonadism or "low T", is a condition where the body does not produce enough of the essential male hormone testosterone. This can occur for different reasons in men of any age. Common symptoms include:
Causes for low testosterone can include injury/infection of the testes, pituitary gland disorders, medications, chronic illnesses, obesity, normal aging, etc. Getting tested is critical, as symptoms can develop gradually over years. Left untreated, low T raises risks for various health issues.
Detecting low testosterone involves a simple blood test. This checks total testosterone levels in the bloodstream. Testing should occur in the early morning when levels peak.
Healthy range is 300-1000 ng/dL. Below 300 ng/dL qualifies as low T and merits treatment. A level between 300-400 may still cause symptoms for some men.
Wellness Hormone Clinic partners with local labs to make testing fast and convenient before starting therapy. We also evaluate overall health history, symptoms, and lifestyle as part of the evaluation.
Testosterone therapy (TRT) involves restoring testosterone levels using gels/patches, injections, or pellets. When properly managed, it can provide life-changing benefits:
We develop personalized plans based on symptoms, health profile, lifestyle needs, etc.
