Individualized
No one-size-fits-all protocol. Your plan is built from your results, your history and your goals.
TRT and hormone health
Treatment options,and how onegets chosen.
If your clinician determines that TRT is appropriate, the next question is which approach fits your results, your health and how you actually live.
Important: Treatment is only recommended where a clinician judges the benefits to outweigh the risks for you. Your provider explains every option and helps you make an informed decision.

TRT is a prescription therapy with potential risks and side effects, and it is not appropriate for everyone. A licensed physician or nurse practitioner reviews your history, symptoms and lab results, explains the risks, and decides whether treatment is suitable.
Starting treatment is not the end of the process.
Whatever is prescribed, monitoring is what keeps it safe and what tells your provider whether it is working. Here is what that involves.
