How Often Do I Need Testosterone Therapy?

How Often Do I Need Testosterone Therapy

How often a person needs testosterone will depend on the individual. The dosage, frequency, and results achieved from testosterone therapy will vary from one person to another. The severity of a man’s testosterone deficiency is a significant factor in how often he will need to take the treatments.

Factors that Can Impact How Often a Man Needs HealthGAINS Testosterone Therapy

Depending on a person’s situation, one or more of these items might impact how frequently he needs to take testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) at HealthGAINS:

The Severity of the Testosterone Deficiency

If a man has severe testosterone deficiency, also called hypogonadism, his body might need a higher dose of this hormone than average. He might also need testosterone injections more frequently than most people.

Goals Someone Has for Utilizing the HealthGAINS Testosterone Therapy Treatment

One man might want to feel like himself again, while another merely wants to stop feeling lousy. The level of benefit a person wants to achieve through TRT can affect how often he might need the therapy.

Age

Testosterone levels tend to fall as a man ages. An older man might need more frequent testosterone therapy than a younger man.

Underlying Medical Conditions

Such conditions like diabetes, depression, thyroid disorders, and obstructive sleep apnea can lead to hypogonadism or cause symptoms similar to testosterone deficiency.[1] If a man has any of these conditions, his low-T could be more challenging to manage, and he might need more frequent testosterone treatments.

Medications that the Patient Takes

Some prescription drugs can lower a man’s testosterone levels or cause testosterone deficiency. Men in these situations might need to have testosterone injections more frequently than they otherwise would. Sometimes a doctor can change a person’s medication to one that continues to treat his medical conditions but does not impact testosterone.

How Quickly the Body Depletes Its Testosterone

If a man’s body maintains testosterone levels within the normal range between treatments, he will not need to increase the injections’ frequency. If, on the other hand, his body uses up the testosterone quickly, the doctor might need to change the injection schedule.

Lifestyle Factors

There are natural ways to accomplish modest improvement in the amount of testosterone a man’s body makes. Being overweight, having low muscle mass, and being sedentary can cause a man to need more testosterone. If a man increases his muscle mass through resistance training and loses excess pounds, he might experience boosts in his natural testosterone levels and need less frequent hormone treatments.

Every patient is different. Although the medical professionals at HealthGAINS can make educated decisions about approaching an individual’s TRT, it is sometimes appropriate to make adjustments in a person’s testosterone therapy.

How Testosterone Therapy Can Improve Health and Sexual Performance

Testosterone therapy can reverse many of the symptoms of testosterone deficiency.[2] Hypogonadism is a significant medical condition that should get evaluated and treated, not ignored. Having low testosterone levels can lead to these problems, which can benefit from testosterone therapy:

Depression and Lower Self-esteem

Having abnormally low testosterone levels causes a chemical imbalance in the body. Chemical imbalances can lead to depression and other mood disruption. Restoring normal hormonal levels can improve a man’s outlook on life.

Exhaustion

Testosterone can give a man energy and stamina. If a man is testosterone deficient, he is likely to feel sluggish and fatigued. Low-T levels can make it challenging for a man to get restful sleep. Poor quality of sleep can make a man’s fatigue even worse.

It can be difficult to concentrate with low hormone levels. Sleep disorders and fatigue and add to this challenge.

Impotence

Men with insufficient testosterone levels can find it impossible to achieve erections consistently. When a man with testosterone deficiency does have an erection, he might not sustain it long enough for satisfying sexual activity. Low testosterone levels can also reduce a man’s interest in sex.

Decreased Muscle Mass

One might think that testosterone levels merely have a localized effect, but that is an incorrect assumption. A man’s entire build can change if his testosterone levels become abnormally low. His muscle mass can decrease while his accumulation of body fat increases.

Other Symptoms

Hot flashes and flushing (reddening of the face and chest) can happen when a man has testosterone deficiency. He can also develop uncomfortable, swollen breast tissue.

When a man with hypogonadism undergoes testosterone replacement therapy, these unpleasant symptoms can improve.
