Testosterone Replacement Treatment For Women

Testosterone Replacement Treatment For Women

Testosterone replacement treatment (TRT) is a treatment typically marketed to men. Women can significantly benefit from testosterone treatment as well. However, women also produce testosterone, although in smaller amounts than men. When these levels dip below normal for women, it can negatively impact their health.

Even though testosterone is an androgenic male hormone, women’s bodies also make and need testosterone. Like men, women’s testosterone levels diminish naturally with age, particularly after menopause. In some cases, low testosterone is a natural consequence of decreasing hormone levels. Ovarian dysfunction or failure, like chemotherapy or radiation, can cause low testosterone levels, thyroid disease, and certain types of cancer.

What does testosterone replacement treatment involve? Depending on the patient’s preference, biology, and response to the hormones, they can either orally ingest testosterone via tablets and pills, take intramuscular injections, or use gels.

Topical creams and gels are one option if the patient has tough skin. They are the easiest to use. Those with sensitive skin should consider oral tablets instead. One drawback is that side effects may occur from overuse.

Oral tablets are one option if one wants to avoid needles or instead try a short-term treatment to correct a temporary deficiency. Many are designed without a release mechanism so that they will release testosterone immediately after digestion.

Injections require a weekly application. They are the most accurate in terms of delivering testosterone treatment.

Testing For Low Testosterone And What You Should Know

Before we break down the reasons behind getting complete blood work, let’s start with the three things that define aging and how they relate to the following information. The three things that define aging, in our humble opinion are memory, vision, and physical movement. Hormone replacement treatment or low testosterone treatment is hands down the best way to maintain the proper optimal function of these aging factors. This is the most essential tool you can use to age gracefully.

However, hormone replacement treatment should never be considered without a complete understanding of how all the body’s hormones interact with each other. If one hormone is altered or deficient in your body, it will affect the actions of all of the other hormones and it may cause a negative “cascade effect” if not prescribed properly. The hormonal response of an individual is as unique as their fingerprints, and how one responds to hormone treatment is related to the condition of one’s health, bio-individuality, genetic profile, stress level, nutritional supplementation, lifestyle, and what you eat.

Understanding How To Test For Low Testosterone
We hope that you could agree that one size does not fit all, and why it’s so crucial that we customize each treatment for each patient with a proper complete blood work analysis. So, before starting you on a hormonal replacement/optimization treatment or if you are already on therapy, and your doctor is not ordering all of the blood test panels we look for, we would ask you to consider his overall expertise in the field of regenerative and hormone replacement/optimization therapy.

Once you read what each hormone’s roles are in your body, you will understand why complete blood work like ours is absolutely invaluable to your well-being. Our blood work is by far the most comprehensive blood test you can order. We are sincerely watching out for our patient’s best interests at all times.
