Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)

What is Testosterone?

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone, playing a vital role in overall health and wellbeing. It regulates sexual development, supports physical performance, maintains energy levels, and contributes to mental and emotional health.


Key Functions of Testosterone:


  • Sexual Health: Supports libido, sexual performance, and sperm production. Low levels can reduce sex drive and affect fertility.

  • Muscle and Bone Health: Maintains muscle mass, strength, and bone density. Low testosterone can lead to muscle loss, increased body fat, and a higher risk of osteoporosis.

  • Mood and Cognitive Function: Influences mood, motivation, memory, and concentration. Deficiency may cause irritability, depression, or brain fog.

  • Energy and Vitality: Helps sustain overall energy, stamina, and physical endurance.

  • Hair Growth and Skin Health: Regulates facial and body hair growth and contributes to healthy skin.


Many men experience low testosterone due to aging, medical conditions, lifestyle factors, or hormonal imbalances. Early recognition and treatment can significantly improve quality of life.

Symptoms of Low Testosterone

  • Low sex drive and erectile dysfunction

  • Fatigue or low energy

  • Loss of muscle, increased body fat

  • Difficulty concentrating

  • Mood changes or irritability

  • Poor sleep or insomnia

  • Reduced facial or body hair

  • Infertility

How can Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) help?

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) can significantly improve the quality of life for men suffering from testosterone deficiency. By restoring testosterone levels to a healthy range, TRT helps alleviate symptoms such as reduced energy, low libido, muscle loss, mood disturbances, and cognitive difficulties. Treatment enhances physical strength, supports bone health, improves sexual function, and boosts overall mental well-being. With careful medical supervision and regular monitoring, TRT provides a safe and effective way to address hormonal imbalances, enabling men to regain vitality and confidence in their daily lives.

Your TRT Treatment Journey

Step 1: Symptom Screening with ADAM Questionnaire

All patients start by completing the validated Androgen Deficiency in the Aging Male (ADAM) questionnaire. This quick and effective clinical tool helps us assess the severity and range of your symptoms, identifying whether further testing and treatment are appropriate.


Step 2: Blood Testing

We perform on-site blood draws conducted to the highest clinical standards. These tests help differentiate the cause of low testosterone and guide safe, tailored treatment planning.

The blood panel will include:

  • Total and free testosterone

  • LH, FSH, SHBG

  • Estradiol (E2), Prolactin

  • PSA (if over 40 years)

  • Full Blood Count (FBC)

  • Liver enzymes, cholesterol, glucose


Step 3: Personalised Consultation & Treatment Planning

During your consultation(s), we will:

  • Review your detailed medical history and symptoms

  • Interpret your blood test results

  • Discuss treatment options including injectable, oral, and topical therapies

  • Address lifestyle factors and fertility considerations

  • Obtain your informed consent and discuss safety monitoring

This collaborative approach ensures your treatment is customized to your unique needs, with structured decision-making and careful dose adjustment.


Ongoing Consultations and Monitoring

After starting therapy, regular follow-ups help us:

  • Monitor symptom improvement and overall treatment effectiveness

  • Schedule repeat blood tests to track hormone and health markers

  • Adjust dosages to maintain hormone balance and minimize side effects

  • Provide ongoing education and safety checks to support your well-being
