TRT was originally developed in the 1930s to treat hypogonadism in men. However, recent research indicates it may have some benefits for women going through menopause as well, including improved mood, energy levels, and sexual function. More studies are needed to confirm these preliminary findings about the potential use of hormone therapy in women.
It's important to have low testosterone properly diagnosed and to start treatment in a timely manner if clinically appropriate. Untreated low T can contribute to a poorer quality of life and potentially serious health issues over time like cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and diabetes.
Diagnosis includes having a medical history and physical examination along with two early morning blood tests to check total testosterone, free testosterone, and other hormone levels.
Symptoms and blood tests should be evaluated together to determine if TRT is suitable. Its important that treatment is supervised properly for best results.
Some lifestyle factors that can enhance the benefits of TRT include:
Making positive lifestyle modifications allows men to get even greater quality of life enhancements from TRT.
