Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a prescription treatment for men whose blood work confirms low testosterone. Labs come first, a licensed physician decides, and many people who ask about TRT are not prescribed it.
What are common signs of low testosterone?
Low testosterone tends to show up slowly. Men often notice some of these:
- Low energy or fatigue that sleep does not fix
- Lower sex drive or erection changes
- Low mood or irritability
- Loss of muscle or more body fat
- Trouble concentrating
None of these prove low testosterone. Thyroid problems, poor sleep, sleep apnea, depression, medications and alcohol can cause the same symptoms. That is why blood work matters.
Why do labs come first?
A physician needs to see your testosterone level and other markers they choose, such as a blood count. The at-home kit is the usual path. You can also upload your own recent panel. Read more in do I need labs for TRT.
Who should be careful with TRT?
Testosterone is not right for everyone. Tell your physician if you want children soon, have a history of prostate or breast cancer, have a high blood count, untreated sleep apnea, heart disease or blood clots. Testosterone lowers sperm production, so fertility plans come up early.
