What is Testosterone?
What is Testosterone?
During puberty, testosterone is the potent hormone that stimulates penis growth, muscle development, voice deepening and masculine features. More broadly, the testosterone hormone is associated with:
- Muscle Mass and Strength
- Fat Distribution
- Healthy Metabolism
- Bone Mass
- Sperm Production
- Sex Drive and Performance
- Red Blood Cell Production
- Maintenance of Good Health, such as reducing high blood pressure and heart attack risks
Mental and Physical Energy & Vigor
When men reach full maturity, testosterone levels begin to decrease at a rate of 1% per year. Fortunately, we can restore our quality of life these invaluable hormones can be replaced through testosterone therapy.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy
Testosterone Replacement Therapy reproduces the naturally-occurring testosterone hormones that our bodies no longer create. Testosterone therapy works to restore low testosterone levels back to the high testosterone levels we experienced in our youth.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy results in:
Fast Muscle Growth and Recovery: This is why body builders swear by testosterone replacement therapy!
Fat Reduction: You will shed that stubborn belly fat with minimal effort as testosterone therapy promotes fast metabolism.
A Brighter, Happier Mind: Not only will testosterone therapy sharpen your memory and restore your youthful focus and drive, but testosterone replacement alleviates the depression which is associated with low testosterone levels.
Increased Strength, Stamina and Energy: Quite simply, feel young again. Testosterone Replacement Therapy eliminates fatigue, and you’ll feel on top of your game like you used to.
Cessation of hair loss: You may also see hair re-growth.
Sexual Drive, Desire and Vigor: the full-throttle return of sexual desire and performance is one of the most celebrated aspects of testosterone replacement therapy. (Owner’s Note: We have many wives calling us personally to thank us!)
How Do I Know if I have Low Testosterone Levels?
You can only know for sure if you have low testosterone levels via a blood test, but typically testosterone levels decrease by 1% every year, beginning mid-twenties. Signs that you have low testosterone levels may include:
- Erectile Dysfunction
- Decreased Sex Drive and Desire
- Hair Loss
- Weight Gain
- Reduced Muscle Mass and Strength
- Osteoporosis
- Energy Reduction
- Sleep Disturbances
- Decreased Motivation
- Memory Loss
- Depression
Testosterone Injections vs Testosterone Cream
We highly recommend testosterone injections. If you can’t bear the thought of testosterone injections, we can also prescribe testosterone cream, which is almost as effective as testosterone injections. However, please note that testosterone cream is not recommended for use around children as it can be transferred through contact. Testosterone injections have proven to be more effective than testosterone cream.
Testosterone Booster
Don’t be confused by the term “testosterone booster”. “Testosterone booster” simply refers to a course of testosterone replacement therapy. We recommend testosterone injections. Please note that testosterone boosters in the form of oral supplements or sprays are ineffective. As natural testosterone production decreases dramatically with age, a testosterone booster course (in the form of testosterone injections) will restore many of the wonderful qualities associated with youth. Truly, testosterone replacement therapy is a life-changing experience.
Testosterone Cypionate vs Testosterone Enanthate
Testosterone cypionate and testosterone enanthate are very similar and largely interchangeable. Both allow for a steady release of testosterone over the course of about a week when you inject them. Testosterone cypionate is suspended in cottonseed oil while testosterone enanthate is suspended in sesame oil.
