Many people ask "Is TRT Safe" or "Is TRT Worth It?" "Do I need to do TRT forever?" We get our guidance from our medical director and from guidance from organizations like the AUA. The American Urological Association was founded in 1902 and are the premier urologic association in the world. They provide invaluable support and guidance to the urologic community of healthcare professionals and practitioners. They promote the highest standards of urological clinical care through education, research and by formulating health care policies for physicians and offer evidenced based research and help in creating a medical diagnosis and dosing protocols for conditions like male hypogonadism and the treatment with testosterone therapy, also known as TRT.


NovaGenix TRT for men with Low Testosterone 


Q: What is low-T, and how do I know or find out if I have low testosterone?
A: Low-Testosterone or Low-T is also known as male hypogonadism, which occurs when a male doesn’t produce enough testosterone in their body. Testosterone is a man’s sex hormone which is one of the primary drivers of how boys develop into men. This hormone becomes prominent during puberty and is the biggest influencer in developing the physical characteristics of men, i.e. body and facial hair, muscle development, deepening of the voice etc.…. Testosterone levels can also greatly affect men’s sex drive, ability to achieve and maintain erections, overall mood, lean muscle mass, body fat, and bone mineral density. Testosterone is also important in the normal production of sperm.
You may have low-testosterone if you have the following problems:
  • reduced libido (sex drive)
  • less frequent engagement in sexual activities
  • weaker and less frequent erections
  • fatigue and less energy
  • feelings of depression
  • decreased muscle mass and strength
  • increase in body fat
  • anemia (low blood iron)
  • loss of bone mineral density and strength
If you think you might have low testosterone, it’s very important to see a doctor like the experts at NovaGenix in Jupiter, Florida, who will examine you and evaluate your health history. A simple blood test can measure your testosterone levels.

Is Testosterone Therapy Safe?

Q: How can I found out if TRT, or testosterone replacement therapy is right for me?
A: If you think you have one or more symptoms of low testosterone, it’s important to make sure you have andropause and not something else which may be exacerbated by non-treatment or TRT. Many symptoms of low-T can be caused by other health issues which is why an in-person exam, blood test, and medical history are vital. As an example, erectile dysfunction (ED) is often caused by poor circulation and cardiovascular health, so making sure you have a healthy heart becomes priority number 1. TRT can absolutely help men with low-T, and change their lives, however, you should not taking testosterone if you don’t actually have low T.
Before you take TRT, you should visit a clinic like NovaGenix, that specializes in HRT for men with Low Testosterone. A doctor who is trained in testing, diagnosing and treating low-T should examine you carefully and take a detailed medical history, giving you a simple physical exam and performing blood testing to check your blood health and hormone levels. The doctor should speak with you about the benefits, possible side effects and risks prior to starting TRT. You and the doctor can then best decide whether HRT is right for you.
Q: What are other possible risks or side effects from TRT?
A: The are a few possible side effects and risks that could be caused by TRT:
  • acne (pimples)
  • breast swelling or nipple soreness (usually from high estrogen)
  • increased red blood cell count (hematocrit)
  • swelling (edema) in the feet or ankles
  • reduced size in testicles
  • reduced sperm county or infertility

TRT can possibly lower sperm production so men wishing to conceive should speak to the doctor about how to counter this possible side effect. Men with advanced prostate cancer should avoid taking TRT because it may increase the rate that the prostate cancer grows but should be noted that the Urological society came out with a definitive study showing no relation to TRT and cancer, yet it could make the cancer worse for someone who goes on it.

Q: A final thought about TRT?
A: It is important to talk with your doctor about both of the benefits and possible risks involved with starting testosterone replacement. If both you and the doctor feel that TRT is right for you, you should have regular check-ups and follow up with blood tests for free and total testosterone levels, estradiol, PSA a CBC and CMP at a minimum. The PSA is a test for prostate health, and hematocrit is included with the CBC and measures how many red blood cells you have based on your total blood volume.
