Low Testosterone Treatment Q&A
What Is Testosterone?
Testosterone is a hormone produced by everyone, but it plays a key role in male health. In men, it supports bone density, muscle mass, red blood cell production, sexual function, and overall mood and energy.
Starting around age 40, testosterone levels naturally decline—about 1% per year. Over time, this decrease can lead to low testosterone (low T), a condition that may negatively affect your physical, mental, and emotional health.
What Are the Symptoms of Low Testosterone?
Common signs of low testosterone include:
-
Decreased sex drive
-
Erectile dysfunction
-
Depression or mood swings
-
Difficulty concentrating or memory issues
-
Loss of muscle mass or strength
-
Irritability
-
Fatigue or low energy
You may also experience weight gain, reduced body hair, or even bone loss (osteoporosis).
What Is Low Testosterone Treatment?
Low testosterone treatment aims to restore healthy hormone levels and reduce symptoms, improving quality of life. At Lakeview Family Medicine, we offer several evidence-based treatment options:
Intramuscular Injections
Testosterone injections are administered into a muscle—usually every 10–14 days—to regulate hormone levels and relieve symptoms.
Topical Gels, Patches, and Nasal Sprays
These options offer gradual testosterone absorption over time:
-
Patches can be applied to the arms, thighs, abdomen, or buttocks.
-
Gels are applied to the upper arms or shoulders.
-
Nasal sprays are administered into one or both nostrils for daily dosing.
