Is it right for you?

 

Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men

As your medical providers, one of our primary goals is to improve your overall health by diagnosing and treating conditions early with the most advanced and trusted therapies available. One highly prevalent and undertreated condition affecting up to 13 million American men (approximately 1 in 5 men over the age of 50) is hypogonadism, commonly referred to as “low testosterone.” The most common signs are lack of energy, loss of sex drive, and mild depression.

By answering Yes or No, this simple questionnaire can help you determine if you have low testosterone levels:

1. Have you had a decrease in libido (sex drive)?
2. Have you had a lack of energy?
3. Have you had a decrease in strength and/or endurance?
4. Have you lost height?
5. Have you noticed a decreased “enjoyment of life?”
6. Are you sad and/or grumpy?
7. Are your erections less strong?
8. Have you noticed a recent deterioration in your ability to play sports?
9. Are you falling asleep after dinner?
10. Has there been a recent deterioration in your work performance?
11. Does it take longer to recover after a workout compared to 10 years ago?
12. Do you still challenge yourself when you work out?
13. Are you having difficulty sleeping?
14. Do you have stubborn belly fat?
15. Do you have increased snoring, or have sleep apnea?

 

If you answered “Yes” to question 1 or 7 or at least three of the other questions, you may have low testosterone levels. This can be determined by a simple blood test.
