We begin by speaking with you and listening. We'll give you some ideas of the possible treatment plans that may suit you pending further lab work.
We'll help you complete some simple lab work. We'll review your results and then schedule an appointment with the Doctor.
After the doctor's visit, we will be able to strategize just the right plan for you and your lifestyle.
Your new treatment program will inform therapy from prescription, supplements and injections to suggestions for improved health.
After analyzing your testosterone levels, we’ll prescribe you a dosage and treatment plan. We may need to help you manage your estrogen levels or other hormone levels as well depending on what the doctor finds in order to help you get the most from your testosterone therapy.
Our Low T program includes close physician monitoring of the necessary lab work and prescription management. In addition, our affiliated doctors and their staff are available to assist patients at any time during therapy. Along with nutritional guidance and expert fitness resources, restoring testosterone levels to optimal levels may help reverse some of the most common symptoms experienced by the men we serve.
There are several treatment options available such as gels, patches, or injections. Twice weekly injections are the most common plan. Injections allow for precise dosing. Injected testosterone does not convert to DHT as much as it does with other delivery methods.
We can teach you to self administer injections painlessly with small needles. However, if you are unwilling to use injections, testosterone can also be administered with a topical cream.
Topical creams are applied on a daily basis. The major drawback to creams is that absorption rates vary. Thus it is difficult to get precise levels of testosterone into the system via cream. Some men may not be able to absorb enough testosterone with this method to achieve desired improvements.
The other disadvantage to creams is that more testosterone gets converted to DHT via this method. DHT has been linked to hair loss in men.
Low testosterone can seriously interfere with your quality of life.
Some of the symptoms of low testosterone include:
Replacement therapy may help to:
Monitoring and managing estrogen is vital to safely and effectively improving function with testosterone.
When increasing testosterone, unless managed, estrogen levels with likewise rise. Men do need small amounts of estrogen however, excess estrogen has undesirable effects that directly conflict with the the whole point of replacing testosterone. These include weight gain, sexual drive lowering, mood swings, fatigue, water retention, and gynocomasia (“man boobs”).
It takes expertise on the doctor’s part to balance estrogen to the tight tolerances needed for optimum results. Ongoing monitoring and care are part of our program to ensure your success and health.
After testosterone, estrogen, and thyroid are balanced, this lays the foundation for working on other secondary improvements in your anti-aging treatments. Growth hormone can have a marked effect in your ability to achieve a more youthful body composition.
Over the counter medications or supplements that promise to increase HGH simply do not work. For effective growth hormone increases, we are able to administer sermorelin. Sermorelin is a hormone that stimulates the hypothalamus organ in the brain to release GHRH (Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone). In turn, when the hypothalamus releases its GHRH, receptors in the pituitary gland nearby are stimulated to release HGH, or Human Growth Hormone. It seems like a bit of overkill to have one organ to tell another to do its job, but these checks and balances help to keep things running smoothly in case one of the organs goes off the rails.
Potential Benefits of Restored Human Growth Hormone Levels:
DHEA therapy requires precision. Improper amounts of DHEA can cause imbalance to the endocrine system, hinder the immune system and cause issues with excess cortisol. Our ongoing monitoring and retesting is essential to allow the doctor to keep your levels optimum.
Thyroid therapy is an area that most healthcare practitioners are unable to properly administer. Successfully balancing thyroid requires understanding of the different types of thyroid hormones and the relationships between them. Our specializations in anti-aging help ensure that you are receiving the right thyroid hormones in the right quantities. You’ll also be helped to choose the right supplements to support your body’s ability to process thyroid hormones.
Most of our patients lead stressful lives. Many are driven business professionals with heavy responsibilities. Stress has been linked to a myriad of health issues and in the very least, drains your physical potential. As we age, stress can exact an even heavier toll on our bodies.
Stress is a major culprit in adrenal fatigue where the adrenals produce too much cortisol and effectively exhaust themselves. To rebalance, the adrenal system, we test for markers of fatigue and support the adrenal system with appropriate supplements.
Too much cortisol can be harmful and has been linked strongly to fat retention. On the other hand, too little cortisol can be equally, if not more damaging and can lead to weakness, fatigue, low blood pressure, and in extreme cases, “Addisonian Crisis”.
Supporting your hormone system holistically means that we can monitor the adrenal system and help support it and its important role in compensating for other hormone imbalances when needed.
Hair loss is a complex issue. It can arise out of hormonal imbalances, thyroid imbalance, nutritional deficiencies, sensitivity to DHT levels, and cortisol imbalances.
Through our ongoing management and monitoring of your hormonal systems, we’ll likewise be able to find likely related causes for hair loss and devise additional treatment plans to address it. For some, a few extra supplements in conjunction with your hormone treatments may do the trick. However, we also have other treatments such as PRP and exosome hair treatments to directly treat hair loss which can be used in conjunction with your men’s health plan.
Even highly disciplined men with strict diets have to actively take care to get the right nutrients to support their goals of losing weight, reducing fatigue, building muscle and generally feeling better. We can support you and make the process so much easier with injectable nutrients.
Most Americans believe they can swallow a capsule to get the supplementary support they need. But many important nutrients that play a big role in anti-aging are so much more effective when injected compared to being absorbed through the digestive system. Glutathione, for example, an incredibly important tripeptide that plays a master role in combatting inflammation can have a noticeable positive impact on health when injected.
We can support you with supplementary nutritional injections that your body will actually be able to utilize. You’ll notice the difference

P-Shot stands for “Priapus Shot” and is a Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) regenerative treatment for the penis.
P-Shot treatments can affect:
P-Shot is not a drug. Rather, we isolate platelet rich plasma from your own body for these rejuvenating and healing injections. PRP therapy is based off the principle that regeneration of new tissue happens through the natural production of stem cells. PRP has concentrated platelets which are rich in bioactive proteins that release growth factors to stimulate cellular regeneration and promote tissue repair. In effect, PRP allows treated tissues to become “younger”.
