What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)?

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is a medical treatment used to restore normal testosterone levels in men who have low or depleted testosterone. This therapy aims to alleviate the symptoms of low testosterone and help improve your overall well-being. TRT can be administered in various forms, such as injections, topical gels, or patches, depending on what’s best for your lifestyle and health needs.

How We Can Help

Our expert endocrinologists specialise in diagnosing and treating low testosterone. We offer a comprehensive, consultant-led approach, providing personalised care tailored to your unique needs. From diagnosis to prescription, we’re here to ensure that you receive the most effective treatment, guided by experienced professionals who genuinely understand your health concerns.

Do I Need To Book an Appointment?

To begin the process of assessing your testosterone levels and discussing potential treatment options, you’ll need to schedule a consultation with one of our qualified endocrinologists. During this consultation, we’ll assess your symptoms, discuss your medical history, and determine whether low testosterone may be the cause.

What are the Common Symptoms of Low Testosterone?

Low testosterone can present with a variety of symptoms, including:

  • Fatigue or low energy levels
  • Reduced muscle mass and strength
  • Decreased libido or sexual dysfunction
  • Mood swings or irritability
  • Difficulty concentrating or memory problems
  • Increased body fat, especially around the abdomen
  • Reduced bone density
  • Sleep disturbances, including insomnia or sleep apnea

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to consult a specialist to assess your testosterone levels.

How It Works: Our Tests and Treatment

To diagnose low testosterone, our endocrinologists will perform a thorough evaluation, including a blood test to measure your testosterone levels. Based on the results, we will discuss the best treatment options for you, which may include Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) to restore hormonal balance.

How Does Testosterone Replacement Therapy Work?

TRT works by supplementing your body with the testosterone it’s lacking, helping to relieve the symptoms associated with low testosterone. The treatment works to improve energy levels, mood, muscle mass, and sexual health. Your endocrinologist will work with you to determine the most appropriate treatment plan based on your individual needs.

Depending on your personal preferences and lifestyle, TRT can be administered through different methods:

  • Injections: Administered every few weeks to maintain consistent levels
  • Topical Gels or Patches: Applied daily to allow gradual absorption
  • Pellet Implants: Small pellets inserted under the skin that release testosterone over time
  • Oral Prescription Medication: Taken daily to improve testosterone levels

Our endocrinologist will explain each method in detail and recommend the one that best suits your needs.

What to Expect

Our consultant-led approach to low testosterone treatment ensures that you receive the highest standard of care from the start. 

Here's what you can expect during your consultation:

  • A thorough assessment of your symptoms and medical history
  • Blood tests to measure your testosterone levels
  • A personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs
  • Recommendations on the most appropriate form of testosterone replacement
  • A clear discussion about the benefits and risks of treatment

Why Do I Need a Consultation?

A consultation with a qualified endocrinologist is crucial in diagnosing low testosterone accurately and determining the best course of action. Your consultation helps ensure that you receive a proper diagnosis and that your treatment plan is tailored specifically to you. It’s a vital step in restoring your hormonal balance and improving your quality of life.

How Long Will the Appointment Take?

The initial consultation typically takes between 30-45 minutes. During this time, our endocrinologist will ask about your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle. Blood tests may also be arranged to assess your testosterone levels.

Preventing Low Testosterone


While testosterone levels naturally decline with age, there are lifestyle changes that can help support healthy hormone levels and prevent further issues. Maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and managing stress can all contribute to better hormonal health. Our endocrinologists can also provide advice on maintaining optimal testosterone levels through preventive care.

Are There Alternatives?

In some cases, TRT may not be the most suitable option. Our endocrinologists will discuss all alternatives with you, including lifestyle changes, non-hormonal medications, and supplements that may help support testosterone production naturally. We are committed to finding the right solution for your specific needs, whether that’s through TRT or other methods.

Take the first step toward feeling your best. Book a consultation today with one of our experienced endocrinologists, and let us help you restore your hormonal balance and overall well-being.

FAQ

Testosterone is a primary male sex hormone produced mainly in the testicles. It plays a crucial role in the development of male reproductive tissues, the maintenance of secondary sexual characteristics like muscle mass, bone density, body hair, and the regulation of mood, energy, and libido. Testosterone levels typically peak in early adulthood and gradually decline with age.

Testosterone levels in men vary by age, health, and individual factors. The general reference range for total testosterone is between 300 to 1,000 ng/dL. However, the ideal level can vary depending on individual symptoms and needs. A healthcare provider will interpret your levels in the context of your symptoms, age, and overall health, as testosterone naturally declines as men age.

Low testosterone, or hypogonadism, can be caused by a variety of factors, ranging from age-related changes to medical conditions. Testosterone production can decrease due to primary testicular issues (known as primary hypogonadism) or disruptions in the signals from the brain's hypothalamus or pituitary gland (secondary hypogonadism). Lifestyle factors like obesity, stress, poor diet, and lack of physical activity can also contribute to low testosterone levels.

  • Primary causes: These originate in the testicles and involve conditions that directly impair testosterone production, such as testicular injury, infections (e.g., mumps orchitis), genetic disorders (e.g., Klinefelter syndrome), or chronic conditions like varicocele. Primary hypogonadism is when the testicles themselves are not functioning properly.
  • Secondary causes: These involve disruptions in the brain's hypothalamus or pituitary gland, which regulates the testicles' testosterone production. Causes include pituitary tumours, head injuries, chronic diseases (e.g., obesity, type 2 diabetes), or medications that affect hormone levels, such as steroids or opioids.

Symptoms of low testosterone can vary greatly from one individual to another, but common signs include:

  • Decreased libido and sexual desire
  • Erectile dysfunction or difficulty achieving and maintaining an erection
  • Reduced energy levels, fatigue, and irritability
  • Decreased muscle mass and strength
  • Increased body fat or difficulty losing weight
  • Loss of bone density, leading to increased risk of fractures
  • Depression, anxiety, or reduced motivation
  • Difficulty concentrating or memory issues

These symptoms can significantly impact the quality of life, and men experiencing them should consult a healthcare provider for evaluation.

to testosterone replacement therapy or anabolic steroid use—can cause side effects such as:

  • Increased risk of cardiovascular issues, including heart disease and stroke
  • Development of sleep apnea or worsening of pre-existing sleep apnea
  • Aggression or mood swings
  • Acne or oily skin
  • Shrinking of the testicles and reduced sperm production, can impact fertility
  • Increased risk of blood clots due to elevated red blood cell count
  • Potential liver damage with prolonged use of oral testosterone

Monitoring testosterone therapy under the guidance of a healthcare professional is crucial to avoid these risks.

Testosterone levels are typically measured through a blood test, usually taken in the morning when testosterone levels are at their highest. The test will assess total testosterone (which includes both bound and free testosterone) and sometimes free testosterone (the fraction of testosterone not bound to proteins in the blood). If your levels fall outside the normal range or if you are experiencing symptoms of low testosterone, your healthcare provider may suggest additional testing or follow-up evaluations.

Treatment for low testosterone often involves testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), which can be administered in various forms:

  • Injectable testosterone: Delivered by injection every 1-2 weeks
  • Testosterone gel or cream: Applied directly to the skin daily
  • Testosterone patches: Worn on the skin to deliver a steady dose
  • Pellet therapy: Small pellets implanted under the skin that release testosterone gradually
  • Oral testosterone: Available in certain forms but less commonly prescribed due to potential liver issues

Treatment should be personalis ed based on individual needs and health factors. It’s essential to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and management to avoid complications.

While TRT can alleviate symptoms of low testosterone, it may also lead to side effects, including:

  • Acne or oily skin
  • Fluid retention and swelling
  • Increased red blood cell count, which could increase the risk of blood clots
  • Sleep disturbances or worsening of sleep apnea
  • Reduced fertility or sperm production
  • Enlarged breasts (gynecomastia)
  • Potential changes in mood, including increased aggression or irritability
    It’s important to undergo regular follow-up with a healthcare provider to monitor for side effects and ensure the treatment is effective and safe.

Yes, testosterone replacement therapy is only available by prescription. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine whether TRT is appropriate for your symptoms and to receive a prescription if necessary. Self-prescribing or using unregulated testosterone supplements can be dangerous and is not recommended.

A general practitioner (GP) or specialist consultant may test for low testosterone if you present with symptoms such as fatigue, reduced libido, or erectile dysfunction. If necessary, they may refer you to a specialist, such as an endocrinologist or urologist, for further evaluation. If you are concerned about low testosterone, it’s a good idea to discuss your symptoms and ask for a blood test to assess your hormone levels.


While testosterone levels typically decline with age, younger men (including those in their 30s) can experience low testosterone due to various factors, including:

  • Genetic conditions (e.g., Klinefelter syndrome)
  • Chronic health conditions (e.g., obesity, diabetes, thyroid disorders)
  • Stress and mental health issues
  • A sedentary lifestyle and poor nutrition
  • Use of certain medications, including opioids, steroids, and antidepressants
  • Environmental toxins or endocrine-disrupting chemicals
    If a 30-year-old man is experiencing symptoms of low testosterone, it’s important to seek medical advice to identify the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.

Yes, there are several FDA-approved treatments for low testosterone, all of which require a prescription from a healthcare provider. These treatments are designed to help raise testosterone to normal levels and alleviate associated symptoms. Options include testosterone injections, topical gels and creams, transdermal patches, and subcutaneous pellets. Your healthcare provider will assess your symptoms and individual health factors to recommend the most appropriate therapy.
